| I generally think in words. I see verbalising thoughts as a way of adding them to working memory in my head, like an internal pen and paper.

This luckily got me started in the dating world, If I was from an older generation I can easily imagine myself never having a ... |

| I like using metaphors a lot, and generally understand what they mean. I have high empathy for people’s feelings (though I’m not so good at understanding their intentions) I don’t generally stim or have meltdowns anymore. Sensory issues have got a lot better with age. I have social awareness now and... |

I guess my hidden talent is empathy. I’m very tuned into the needs and feelings of other people, and it happens automatically. It’s not obvious that I am a high empathy person because I don’t have many friends and I’m socially clumsy.

Probably Civilization is the game I loved the most, over the most years.
Played a lot of Civ 3, 4 and 6. I hear Civ 7 is coming out next year. |

| I do 5:2 intermittent fasting, where I eat around 600 calories two days a week, and eat normally on other days a week. I like it because it doesn’t require much planning, and I don’t feel too guilty if I overindulge on some days. I’m not really losing weight, but my weight isn’t increasing, so I’m h... |
