A Puzzling View

Very Colorful. Very Outspoken. Very Honest. Very Frustrating Thoughts on Relationships…

Thanks for clicking onto A Puzzling View on Relationships. This blog premiered on September 10th, 2012 and is a spin-off of a successful blog* called The Forgotten Autistic, a blog discussing various issues that a few would touch with a 10′ pole.
* based on followers, responses, comments, hits and search terms.
In order to focus on more deeper issues, such as romance, love, friends, social discrimination and even sexual concerns, I felt it was necessary to spin off from the section known as “Love + Relationships = Confusion” from The Forgotten Autistic into its own functioning blog.
I’m Steven, the lone publisher and editor of this web log. I’m 25 years year old with a pervasive developmental disorder/not otherwise specified “PDD-NOS”, but essentially someone with autism. I was born with it since the day I came onto this planet. I didn’t speak till I was 4 and I basically was slower than my peers in most developmental phases (and maybe to this day as well.) I have never had a girlfriend, and I barely have kissed and held hands maybe in less than a handful of times.
Since the ignorant people in society has defined autism as a “mute and dumb” population, I conform to the ignorant. And to continue the arrogance from the elitist of autism,  I have to work 200% to prove myself I can be like everyone else WITH the EXPECTATIONS thereof, while my non labeled “peers” have gotten away from crime, such has doing things I feel that are offensive and antisocial. And yet I am the most pure virgin around, I can’t imagine that most girls have “done it” and since I am a kid from the 80s, I’m one of those people to fear of  sex because he doesn’t want to get not AIDS perse but another STD.
I write this blog from the stereotypical view, of an outsider, an “non-human”, a ultra professional looking into the window where everyone else is happy of having multiple level of “relationships” meanwhile a “normal” looking person like me is being treated as someone who may come off as a creep.
Also since there is so many mixed messages about relationships, this is why its so damn “puzzling” to figure out the various levels of relationships.
