What aspects of your Aspergers do you hate?

Hate... that's a very strong word.
I can't think of any aspects of it that I actually hate.
There are things I could do without, though.

Socialization. People (including myself) are unpredictable all the time.

I do not hate any part of my Asperger's. I accept Asperger's as part of what makes me who I am---and I generally enjoy my life.

Poor social skills. I know social etiquette but can never put it to practical use. I feel so glum sitting back with a million things to say but no one is interested to hear it, and I'm not interested what they're talking about.
My explosive moods cause me problems too.
My lack of flexibility.

I don't really HATE anything about it, but it makes daily life a bit stressful. I tend to be offensive without meaning to, and my entire life I've never known when to say sorry, I can't understand general social situations, and I can't stand crowds of people...which makes going to concerts suck, even though I LOVE music. It puts a lot of stress of my relationship too, my boyfriend is NT, but he tries to understand. (He's the only person I ever felt any emotional connection to, crazy huh?) I also can't stand the hypersensitive hearing. Ahh!

One thing I have always been lousy at is deciphering weird smirks on people's faces. Part of me wants to believe they are in no way antagonistic but they probably are sardonic and mocking. When someone looks at me with the weird smile I never know what that means.

I hate the fact that I come out as rude sometimes even though I don't mean to be. Most of the time its the WAY I say things instead of what I say. Thats what I hate the most.

Having to be like everyone else just to get by , if I'm not hurting anybody why can't I be left in peace? I won't find that with a significant other or find that in friends , I stick to my pets and hobbies they will never give me grief.

I simply don't understand why parents force their children to be NT it's unethical the equivalent of asking a wheel chair bound child to go up a set of stairs.

Why would you want an NT child anyway ,promiscuous sex, drug and alcohol abuse, cruelty, irrationality mindless consumerism and all the other undesirable side effects that come with the disorder.

I hate that too much sensory input can make me feel like I need to explode.

I hate how others view Asperger's. I also don't like the name itself. It's hard to say without people thinking that you said Ass-burgers but there's not much that can be done about either of those things. :/

I hate others' views on it, for one thing, because the general public views us as a disease or a menace, and I hate others' intolerance of us.
I hate the fact that people think I'm stupid because I can't control my emotions, and because I'm still not interested in boys.
I hate that people think I'm a plague, and therefore avoid me.
I hate how people think we can't live "normal" or "successful" lives, when we know that success is about how content you are with the job, or how you're helping people, not money or commercial means.
I hate how I can't talk to someone about what I like without getting made fun of.
I hate being misunderstood.
I hate that they want us gone.
