| Why do NTs ask me if I'm okay so much? This usually happens if I'm stimming a lot or I'm not smiling. I can understand if family members ask this, but I often get asked this by strangers. When strangers ask me if I'm okay I usually get mad at them and tell them I am okay even if I'm feeling depress... |

| Invitation is key to keeping friends. Starting a topic of conversation and/or initiating an activity is like hosting a party. Whoever initiates is extending an invitation for others to come to the party. If you are one who always seems to rely on the other person to "host" the party it could become ... |

| Would you agree or disagree that the concept of "general intelligence" is applicable to everyone since no matter how intelligent one is on the meter is there not always someone greater? Is there such a thing as the "most intelligent" man/woman alive? I think this would become quite subjective as ego... |

| Are you sure these people aren't just geeky/bohemian/non-conformist NTs?
