My father has quite some autistic traits. He genrelly is pretty distanced and cold, doesn't like dealing with people and is unable to take care of himself properly.
I agree that autists tend to think in black and white in a more blatant way I suppose. |

| I want some clarification between the two conditions. I'm 22 and was diagnosed with Aspergers at the age of 15. My childhood was ridiculed with bullying both at school and home by my parents. I didn't start speaking until the age of 3 and when I did start speaking it was not my native language but i... |

I don't have any friends.
One only but he thinks I'm quite "needy" and doesn't want me to talk about this kind of personal stuff. |

Can't think of any.
I'm literally less smart than my classmates in every regard. Perhaps my only good quality is persistance? I don't know. I'm not studying much nowadays, probably much less than others. |

Anyway, I think it would be worth a while to research possible accommodations for you.
Huh, I thought those were large groups.
I don't even know anymore. Maybe I'm just too stupid in general for labs. I don't get to try, it's always others. |

| Doubt they will help. I'm inherently slow. Because I'm slow I forget and make stupid mistakes. One solution is to get more time or do labs several times instead of once. Doubt they will offer that. Unless I can go and do it alone. Teaching at my uni, I have encountered some students with documents ... |

Realistically, I do enjoy studying as long as it's not programming and assuming I'ts not TOO much to study. E.g. I take a 1 week break and the course material breaks me instead. W... |

| Just avoid her, cease caring and get over it? These people are neurotypical, they're communicating in a way that isn't ever going to be obvious to you, so why are you bothering yourself this much? Most neurotypicals say they like everyone but it doesn't actually mean they like everyone, they probab... |

My mom and siblings take a similar approach to what you describe - they worry about how to interpret the moods of the people around them and try to rationalize other people's attitud... |
