Well, we tend to have emotional meltdowns. We tend to have anxiety about social issues and strange surroundings. We have the same deep feelings others do, too. It's just that logic comes first.

In my case, I am bipolar also, and before I was medicated, as much as I tried to live logically, I couldn't. I was at the total mercy of my emotions.

Nothing wrong with that. If anyone feels threatened by such a thing, it's their problem. Be as you are, and if you feel emotional, be comfortable being emotional.

I'm very emotional myself. Reasons for emotions is because us Aspies can't understand social cues and certain loud noises can freak us out.

Plus I identify as Androgyne / Bigender so I wouldn't consider myself a emotional stabel MAN, sometimes when I'm towards my effeminiate side, I'm more emotional, depending on what's bothering me.

But anyways, don't worry because your not alone. :)
