I only really got around to thinking about it at school recently, when I noticed, despite lies being, well... lies, they still come across as reassuring. I've spent quite a lot of time pondering about it, and I've came to conclude that it's not because the lies actually provide any actual reassuranc... |

I can relate, friends try to avoid using numbers with me, I tend to do something with them. I also do it a lot with certain words I've been thinking a lot about, like today my RE teacher mentioned 'perfection' and I didn't listen to a word from there on 'cause I was too busy thinking about whether o... |

I got hit by a car once, I was thinking about my computer, LOL XD. My back still sucks.
So yeah, I don't like crossing roads xD. I'm more cautious though, if I wasn't wearing my back pack my head would have slammed against the floor... I could have got brain damage or anything o.O.

I don't see the letters most of the time, very rarely.
I can picture what the person's saying clearly though.

1) Hear them in my head... sometimes, VERY rarely, a spelling test paper from like 5 years ago will flash in my head, though this is really rare... 2) Right. 2a) Immediately. 2b) Well, I was aware of my surroundings(say if something on the monitor changed), but I had a clear image of my hallway and ... |

I took an IQ test online and got an IQ of 129... If I take a reputable one and I can get into it then I'd consider, though I'd only do it for the title and to get into a better University than the local one... I'm actually getting sort of depressed over the University I'm going to end up in. And bef... |

Sometimes I laugh at the responses, like at the end of the film, 'Milk'(he was the mayor... or city supervisor or something, but still a celebrity) I could help but laugh(while crying at the same time) that all these people had came around in a giant march as such, probably from the fact someone cou... |

about how 'Blu-Ray is better than HD' and I just felt like ranting on to them about how Blu-Ray incorporates an HD resolution, Maybe they were talking about HD DVDs(i mean, not just that have HD resolution... but the ones that were out for awhile that were actually labeled "HD," in a separate secti... |

Does anyone else have problems with others understanding themselves? Or even worse, in my case, people getting annoyed at you for you being too 'complex' to understand? Quite often I'll say something and they'll laugh back and say, 'Yeah, didn't understand a word of that, but yeah', and it's been ge... |

My friend said that to me when I told them I had Asperger's, xD.
She doesn't know what it is though, obviously.

There was a thread about this on Spectrum Forums. It's more of a compulsion thing really, I KNOW it's not welcome, but I can't help it, I just don't like incorrect information being disputed. I'm gradually being able to control the urge to correct people, like with teachers it's a massive no 'cause ... |

I'm terrible at that... Especially with death... I was so glad I didn't burst out laughing when someone told me their brother committed suicide at weekend. I know it's terrible, and I did genuinely feel sorry for them, and knew how crap it would have been for them, but all I can do at first is laugh... |

I think I accidentally click 'Yes' as sort of an instinct for the positive answer... I can't really remember, but I'm pretty sure I didn't click, 'No', so unless someone says they voted, 'Yes', consider that vote void .

I think I'm in a similar position with you... I'm only 14 though. On an emotional level I'm probably like... 10 years old or something and socially probably half my age but in terms of intellect I'd like to say I'm at least double my age. Even if it's delusional, I'm certainly underestimated. My tea... |

There'll be days when I'll also talk a lot and go on for awhile(in class we were going through character lists for a play and it came onto a description of, 'not afraid to speak their mind' and everyone turned around and looked at me while saying my name), though some days I'll just ignore everyone ... |
