How are u different from everyone around you in essence?
I tend to analyse everything that is said to the point where when I am ready to reply, the topic has moved on. I also have trouble getting my word in because I'm more interested in what other people have to say to add to my knowledge pool so I don't interrupt anyone who starts talking before I do. Anything that doesn't make sence I will point out, unless the person is on my ignorant stuck in their own ways list.
Like someone else said, I also can't remember names or long lists being given to me, but will know where someone elses <object> is. I have very good spacial memory and never get lost.
I can't stand the smell of most deodarants and perfumes and being around a lot of people tires me out. First I will lose the energy to talk, then I will be unable to keep my eyes open but still be mentally fully awake. I have heard some funny/interesting conversations because people thought I was sleeping.
Mostly now I am just quiet and throw in the odd funny remark now and again. I pretty much stopped going to social events and just hang out with a few close AS-ish friends.
