Or am I just a schizoid NT?

You decide.

You let those people who say you don't have AS get to you?

No, but I've only identified with one or two members, and they had a similiar behavior to me, and they also doubted if they had AS.

Would you say I have a developed theory of mind?

I have no idea. I assume you have some. I've developed mine through life experience and thinking of myself and knowing how things make me feel so I assume it's the same way for others. It's not accurate but it helps.

I think I've got a glimpse of how it feels to be an NT, and I can't say I was happy then, I THINK I know how an NT thinks, but maybe not THAT much when it comes to social behavior.

i am not a doctor and i do not know how to decide.

i do not think you are affected to the degree i am with social inadequacy.

you are friendly and you exude a spirit of social inquisitiveness and playfulness that i could never achieve.

but who knows. not me

you are friendly


I'm not so sure, I've behaved like a monster who has had a bad day here sometimes :?

I've noticed that some RL aspies have a very stereotyped, vulgar behavior though, and I can't see myself in them.

i can not see myself in anyone else than me. i identify with almost no one even if they are supposed to be similar to me.

i can breathe well and i am able to run and play in my own world and i am happy in my own world.
other people are other people and they go about their own ways.
