| I see this happen to another aspie I know. She's the type that talks nonstop and will dominate the conversation for the entire lunch hour. This is annoying to others and makes them want to avoid her, even though she means well. They feel bad leaving without her sometimes because they know she is a n... |

| I have tried to be better about this, but I have a very nasty habit of finding holes in the logic of other people if their opinions/views do not make sense to me. I get almost to the point of ridiculing them and/or putting them on the spot. I'm just wondering if any of you do this or if I'm just a t... |

| For most of my career, I worked alone and was able to focus on my interests (databases, programming, etc.) and always did well. Due to this, I was able to build a very wide skillset that made me a good fit for a leadership role over a larger group. I also tend to be easy to get along with, other peo... |

| This very short "test" was interesting to me. I immediately gave the "Aspie" answer, and when I saw what the NT answer would be, I was completely puzzled. I have looked at it over and over again and cannot answer it any other way. Take a look: http://blogs.psychologytoday.com/blog/experiments-in-phi... |

| I've always hated group work. I am working on a master's degree part-time and much of my coursework includes group projects. They're always annoyed with me because they want to get everything done a week early, while I prefer to wait until the very last minute and hammer it out right on time. Also, ... |

It seems today,
that all you see,
is violence in movies and sex on TV.
But where are those good old fashioned values,
on which we used to rely?

all the things that make us...
Laugh and cry.

It was the only time I've ever been comfortable in a group setting and it was very nice to be around people who understood me.

| And this would also depend on the extent that one has AS. I am a diagnosed Aspie, but with a lot of NT traits. There might be a major difference between me and someone who is deeper in the spectrum. Tim This is a good point. I certainly think I'm more high-functioning than other aspies I know, but ... |
