My younger brother is obsessed with his guitar playing. He also collects things and keep all his stuff in lines. I did an experience today and dislocated a 5-inch nail he had on his desk so that it was not paralell to the edge, he imeadiatly put it back in its original position. When asked however or not he felt anxiousness by my positioning of the nail he responded with a positive answer. However, he has many friends and does not understand whatsoever the issues i have with bright lights, touching (he touched my shoulders today from behind despite me telling him repeatedly never to touch me in the past ) and so forth.
My father collects calculators from the seventies and can´t clean his own room.
My older brother, my father and i have similar huomor witch my younger brother can not understand.
One should think that because of my older brother lacking any traits (a serious flaw ) he would be the one not understanding the humor. However this is not the case.
