Ever came across NT's you really liked?

It happens to me sometimes, that I actually stumble over people that's kind of different from other people, they've got som kind of charisma that makes me relax in their company and makes me feel much more comfortable than I usually would do in social occations.
Don't get me wrong, I don't hate people, but sometimes it almost kills me to be in social occations, with no way to escape. Every once in a while on such occations, I meet people like I described. I think those ppl have some special ability that other people don't have. Sorry, but I feel it kind of hard to explain better, I put my trust in your intuiton, that you know what I mean?

Yes, I know what you mean. There is this guy that works at home depot that I got along with from the get-go. I feel completely at ease around him, even enough to tease him back. He always asks me what my newest project is, then brags to the other customers about things I've done in the past. Which skinny me doesn't look like I could accomplish. He's a good guy. That happens every once in a while. Instant friends. It's unusual as most people make me feel uncomfortable.

It happens to me sometimes. Sometimes I run into a very special person. Not often enough, if it depends on me, alas.

Not NTs per se.

My group of friends includes:

A diagnosed pyromaniac stoner.
A Packrat with rage issues and a survivalist attitude.
A control freak den mother.
A Shy guy who kills his emotions with drugs and displays unusual hangs in speech.
A very fast talking twitcher with authority issues.
A "stranger in a strange land" who's eyes gloss over when he's not spouting random facts (myself, as described by one of my teachers).
And a girl who Compulsively makes bad decisions (Bi-polar diagnosed).


So there's no Neuro-typicality in there, but they're definitely a good bunch. I can relax with them (unless the group assembles as a whole, in which case I fall into facilitator mode, setting up things like music on my computer for them to listen to, or finding something interesting for the group to do while engaging in virtually no interpersonal conversation, or finding people also out of the group and talking to them.) unless I'm feeling particularly... I dunno the word to describe it, so I'll go with perturbed. If I feel like I screwed up somehow, I'll usually lapse into analyzation mode, silently picking apart the conversation for my social faux pas. I have an excellent mask and present as a self-acknowledging pompous ass, to the point of smoking a pipe and making racist/sexist comments in place of terms of endearment. A "class-hole" if you will. (points if you get the reference).

I really like my friends. Most of them have rather typical traits, they're popular, typical girls, modern and fashionable and so on. Best people in the world.

I don't have many NT friends (and friends either), mostly gamer addicts, but I feel that some people are special because they have a certain ability to speak to me and to engage in a conversation, not a one-way speech as usual (either me or the person). I feel that these person are different than the others, who keep bullying me. I feel more comfortable with those tolerant people than usual when communicating.
I get on well with mostly Adults NT (But a small group of them) and Girls NT (same) , but not boys NT, and of course I get on well with people with AS.
I'm not too affected by my AS, I've got a mild form according to my doctor, but I'm really rejected and bullied in my high school, by many of my classmates.

I have two wonderful friends who are NT. I don't know what I'd do without them.

all my friends are NTs. they are really a great resource when it comes to human behaviours I wouldn't otherwise understand. plus they are all very tolerant, non-judgemental NTs who don't mind my being the way I am.

Yes, my boyfriend!
