| When I'm comfortable with people, I naturally smile. I am usually quiet, can come off as serious if you don't know me well but once you get to know me, my sense of humor is a big part of me and I'm known as a hyena in my friend group. If I'm really not comfortable, my face is at it's neutral state/... |

Theme song? It's literally my signature:
Also, this one too. Perfectly describes what it's like being neurodiverse, NTs really are "strangers like me":

| For the longest time I was too embarrassed/insecure to tell people. But that changed during my sophomore year of college when I took a class with a professor who had a daughter on the spectrum and who I felt probably understood how we think/feel more than most NTs. He was the first person at my coll... |

| I do worry about finding the right person and if that person exists, if they would be interested in me even. I am scared of being the one to initiate. Or if I did find someone, if they would find another great girl who didn't struggle in my areas of shortcomings and give up on me. I am not too good... |

| First and foremost, I think I'd prefer to be with a woman the spectrum than with an NT. I just feel that it would be easier for both of us if that were the case. She would be in her early 20s like me, and won't mind taking things slowly at first. She would be friendly, creative, kind, and adventurou... |

I avoid facebook (and Twitter, Instagram, etc.) completely, for 2 reasons.
1) I don't want to waste all my free time with those things,
2) I don't see the need to post my entire life on the internet. |
