| I'm told my eyes look weird/staring/creepy/stoned. Some people have told me my eyes are beautiful. Thank you to those people. Raleigh, thanks for posting this. I get the stoned comment sometimes as well. When I was in HS I was, probably, in fact stoned :D but I still get it to this day and I haven'... |

| Yeah, a lot of other men say I have "shifty" or "evil eyes", but that's just covering for their insecurities. I've gotten true feedback on it though from some women and I have "intense pretty blue eyes". Probably some weird 50 shades of something fetish. 8O Ack! I've g... |

| I am loving this Hogan's Heroes info. I watched that show constantly growing up (1980's re-runs). The movie Auto Focus really freaked me out. |

| Many times. Been told I have the 'devils eyes' - I have no idea what that means. Been told my eyes 'flash' - Don't know what that means either. I wear glasses most of the time but the other day at work I was walking around without them on and a girl on our floor I've worked with for years looked at... |

| I've had my eyes described as: 1) Serial-killer eyes 2) Cold 3) Vacant 4) Blank 5) Unemotional I've also been told I am intimidating. I'm only 5'9 and weigh about 160 pounds but I guess my demeanor accounts for a lot. People often ask if I'm angry and friends often remind me to smile during photos (... |

| If you don't have any clinically significant traits and show no impairment then I would question your diagnosis. Maybe you're just a weirdo that doesn't like certain textures and sounds, the whole social impairment is pretty integral to autism. I don't need to list all the pro's about myself, since... |

Wouldn't trade my special interest or hyperfocus ability for a cure. Not in a million years. I'm also not a particularly positive person. I'm not actively trying to find the best parts of my autism. I just really like indulging my special interests.
I do hope that those who want a cure find it. |

| Yes. I hate talking on the phone unless I know the person very well. I will not answer unknown calls. If they don't leave a voice mail then I assume it was not an important call. I also have to really plan out what I am going to say when I call someone I don't know. Even if I am just ordering a pizz... |
