| He takes everything he learned about me, anything personal, and is using it to hurt me. Saying things like he hoped my abusive parents beat the meanness and LGBT+ out of me....... yeah, that's frightening, I've been physically attacked before by a guy, so I worry more than most. He even has asked m... |

| Harassing you how? See, part of the main reason that AS is different from "gifted" is that, while a gifted person can choose to be social and can pick up on nonverbal social cues, an AS person...can't. At least, not to the same degree. So if his "harassment" is born of miscommun... |

Tell your parents. Go to your principal or dean. And ignore him. Besides that... I'm not sure what else. |

| You have to consider confirmation bias and the null hypothesis (what are the chances of this result if my hypothesis were false?). Based on my own experiences, and online sharing with the girl, I'd say p < .00001 that this could be a coincidence. We simply had no way to know the things we first exc... |

I'm saying nothing would be done as an action at a distance. Just you feel something as a connection based on prior experiences. |

| So what is really the evolutionary reason for neurodiverse people obsessing about their loved one? One possible reason might be to form strong attachments, but then surely, regular sex must be far more effective in achieving that. A better reason might be to form a spiritual connection, which then ... |

And doing something because it makes them feel happy, and therefore makes you feel happy. Yeah, doing the same thing over and over again gets boring. Without the downs do the... |

| Kinda sounds like me actually. If he hasn't actually tried to ever hurt himself I wouldn't worry about it too much, its not your responsibility. Problem is what else does he actually think about in life to look forward too? You clearly don't want anything to do with him anymore. I wouldn't sugar coa... |

| If someone tells you to never speak to them again, is it a bad idea to apologize to them? Could they get you in legal trouble just for apologizing? Yes, it is a bad idea to apologize to them. It is more important to give them some space and show that you respect boundaries than saying anything. It ... |

I know that I don't know what other people think. Most social skills seem to me like getting around that. I can'... |
