| I definitely do this, plus I remember random facts and details very well. Unfortunately I'm a big awkward guy so have to do my best to bite my tongue even when I think it's a really interesting connection as I don't want to make it look like i am obsessed with them. I have in the past been guilty of... |

| I don't have regular video of myself walking, but I've always assumed that I walk with my head down a lot where as it feels other people walk looking forward more. Would be interesting to have more data on this and if it is an autism thing or some other factor (anxiety, low self esteem etc). |

| As am sure others will say, I can't be sure. The key thing for me is I was at an age when it wasn't commonly diagnosed in schools. I believe it would have been very beneifical then as the support would have helped, but by the time I had any understanding about it I was around 30. Having by then mana... |

| Incongruous Just unable to fit in. Even now I'm older and understand more, see the rules better, I just will always be on the outside. It seems everyday I am able to do something that just falls outside of society norms. It's less confusing now I rarely make any big mistakes, but I know I will never... |

I like microfiber sheets and pillowcases.
Never thought of that. Could very well be the case to small fibres. I should have wash them instead of putting them straight on from the packaging. |

| Does anyone else have an issue with new bed sheets. I got some new sheets for new year and found that with a sheet and particularly the pillows, I get really dehydrated. My mouth is so dry that it can be a bit hard to inhale. Usually I need to make a few trips to the bathroom to get some water befor... |

Visual - 13
Social- 6
Physical - 7
Aural - 6
Verbal - 6
Solitary - 17
Logical - 17
I figured mine would just be a case of seeing which the balance was of solitary, logical and visual. Thought visual might have been a bit closer to the other 2. |

| I like these sort of tests, got full marks, it's just a case of going what feels "off" . Iy's funny I can't really describe what's correct, but instantly pick up on ones that are wrong. |
