If I see or find her, I will let everyone know.

Diagnosed 1997, I suppose I am a fully fledged Aspie now. Is there anything I need to know before I talk to her, or is it better that I don't ask her about it? |

I think I could offer specific advice rather than genersl and as we all know there are constants and variants in this condition. I'm no expert, just somebody who lives with it.
There is the famous Hans Asperger quote where he says the best person to know about Aspergers Syndrome is the person who has it.
He was an Austrian I believe. Just hearing on the radio that lockdown measures are relaxing there with garden centres, DIY stores and small shops can open but with strict rules on social distancing.

I think I need to find out more about her diagnosis first. I don't have specific questions. I hope you are doing well. |

I mean, I have started to contribute as this forum was on my dashboard and I was like, what is that, I must have joined it at some point for some reason and like, who is Christina? And right now in these strange times in a global pandemic, interaction on forums and a togetherness is maybe more important than in normal circumstances. |

Maybe you met her on Proboards Support as bigballofyarn. She volunteers and helps a lot of people there. She's very nice.  |

If you'd like, and only if you want to, you can make an intro thread in Welcome Mat and we'll all come over and say hi.

Cool. I would have used an emoticon there but nothing dropped down when I clicked. |
