I'm 36, and am having trouble finding information about adults with asperger's.As you well know, being from small town Alabama , and having a developmental disorder can be disastrous.I am happily married, with 2 kids, though.But other than my family, I have no close friends.

I miss out on so much stuff with my wife, because I don't " get" her body language.Is there a way I can learn this somehow?

Also, my mom thinks I can just stop doing my tics; like my current obsession is 3d computer rpgs; (in the past it has been the color crayon black, numbers, reading any paragraph i could find and counting how many of certain letters were in that paragraph, drawing 3/4 front views of cars). that i can quit popping my knuckles, etc.

I have always been picked on; i also can't seem to tell the difference between someone being serious and joking around.

Any information would be helpful, as most of the stuff on the internet seems to deal with children with asd's.
