am I becoming an NT!?

Post Reply New Topic

it's kinda scary, but im changing, and im getting the feeling that the older I get (and im only 15 atm) the less autistic I become and it's going FAST. My asperger was diagnosed 6 years ago. I had many aspie traits. I lost myself completly in my special intrests and did NOT want to do anything else, I was paying no attention to others at all. Needed a very big personal space, and had no idea what other people thought about me, or how thw world outside my world looks like.

But slowly thing change. First my own world got bigger, I got more friends, and I understood people more. By the time I went to high school (4 years ago) I had some friends, I could understand them, but that was it. but idk how, idk why, but things have been changing. I played an MMRPG, which gave me loads of self confidence, so I could be myself around other people and I like that. My ex GF inspired me to trust others, like I trusted her for 100% (she cheated on me and I never want to talk to her again, but that's another story).

Now, I don't have a special intrest, I prefer to be around other people, have many friends, I like everyone, and (almost) everyone likes me. I dont really have a personal space anymore, I caught myself flirting (just a little bit) without even noticing. And even though I dont see as much from the world around me as others, I see much more then I used to. And I just emptied my heart to someone I barely know ( she's been in my class for 2 years, but I don't speak to her that much) People care for me more then I ever noticed. and people start acting nicer and nicer. Girls and Boys.

The only real Aspie traits I still have is that I keep wearing the same clothes, my fine motor skills are bad, and I don't like new situations (really dont like them) but I can handle them. But what in the world is happening? People always noticed I was different when I was younger, but now even my skilled (ex) english teacher who has had many autistic students didnt recognize asperger in me.

Am I losing my asperger traits or something like that? I don't really mind, as I am just living my life differently and still happy, but it's really odd. Does anyone know what in the world is really happening? because I cant believe im becoming less aspie.

Have you become shallow, rude and indifferent to anything but your own whiney needs? Ha. I thought I’d take the first shot on this…

well no, actually I have been helping other people alot, listening to their problems, helping them find a solution. one of my close friends had alot of problems with his GF, and I really helped him, and another's parents were getting divorced so I made sure she could do her test another day. stuff like that. the needs of the people I care for are just as important, if not more important then my own
