Here are my dreaded questions.
1. Have you ever, like, made out with a girl? -Leave me the f**k alone! I know you're just trying to make me look like a loser.
2. Do you think you're cool? -I don't care.
3. Do you...understand? -Yes!
4. Do you have a crush on...? -No. I've outgrown crushes on stupid popular girls.
5. Are you smart? -I'm an aspie. I can't answer that.
6. Why are you ignoring/mad at/being rude to me? -I'm sorry I'm not trying to.
7. Do you wish you had a girlfriend? -Yes but I've never met a decent match for a guy like me.
8. What did you get in...class? -I have disabilities. It's embarassing to who I really am.
9. Do you play any sports? -No.
10. Why are you so awkward? -Because you're forcing me into a social situation I don't want to be in.

How Old Are You?

"A year older than I was last year. However, please assume that I'm just a 16-year-old who skipped grades to college, tried TOO hard to look like a college student, and now has social issues stemming from it. I regret the decision; I can't easily reverse looking like a college student now, even though my social skills are still that of peers my age."

How do you suppose others would react to that?

After making a statement and obviously (to them not to me) expecting me to answer them), Are you giving me the silent treatment now?

First off, you didn't ask a question, second off, doesn't it tell you something if you think whatever you said was something that would make someone give them the silent treatment, I notice your not apoligising for saying something you think must have offended me. And finally no, just what |I'm thinking about ismuch more interested than this irrational converation.

:arrow: Why are you single/why haven't you got a partner?

I used to really hate that one so much.

I'd get told things like "You're so good looking, why don't you have a girlfriend" or "I'm surprised the women aren't crawling all over you." That used to bother me because I could never find one who was interested. Being told things like this while spending your life being shunned only makes you feel worse, not better.

I did eventually meet, by accident online, someone I could connect with, even though she lived in another state, we did eventually marry. She knows what I'm like and accepts me the way I am, which is something I rarely got from anyone in life. It just shows there's hope for alot of us.

Why do you know that? usually after I answer some trivia question that is supposed to make them look clever. I hate baseball and I don't have social skills. Now what's your excuse?

Complete with actual answers I have given people before.

1. What the hell is wrong with you?

There's some confusion over it psychologically. A number of things have been proposed ranging from A.D.D., O.C.D, non-verbal learning disorder, and Asperger's. Mostly I have little empathy, poor social skills, and my brain only really functions when somebody's talking, whether that be you or me, so somebody's got to fill in the silence gaps. You're not pulling your gap weight a lot of the time, I notice.

2. What could you have possibly been thinking?

That you would react rationally to the situation. Instead you're being all emotional at me. I expect an apology for your irrational behavior any moment now, unless you're going to be irrational at me some more, in which case God knows what you might pull.

3. You just don't get it do you?

I have not reached the same conclusion you have given the same evidence, so, no, I do not, "get it" in the same way as you. That doesn't mean you're right, it just means I'm better at evaluating evidence, including my ability to evaluate my own ability to evaluate evidence.

4. You're not going to get that are you?

I was planning on it, but was kinda on the fence between that and another thing. Now that you're trying to be all control freak on me though, I'm definitely going to get that because I had spite as an added motive. That's precisely the kind of thing that can tip the balance.

5. Oh what am I going to do now?

Based on my past experience with you, you're going to drink a lot in the short term and also experience decline in your social life, grades, and/or job, until time allows your mind to be distant enough from this setback that you hoist yourself out of it.

6. What's your problem?

Currently, that I have a real mother of sunburn on my back and I have to sleep on my front. My habit of tossing and turning means that I'm constantly alternating between pain and suffocation in the night. Normally you don't care about that sort of thing, so I am wondering why you asked, but I figure your reasons are your business.

7. Why did you do that?

Because I wanted to and it seemed like a good idea at the time. In fact, in retrospect it remains something I perceive to be a good idea. You seem kinda ticked at me over it, but to be honest with you that's not really something that would've caused me to do anything differently.

8. How'd this place get so messy?

Well, you know, if you live in a place and eat in it, cook in it, clean up in it, get dressed in it, and spend your leisure hours in it and you're incredibly lazy, it just all comes together. No, really, it's not that hard. To be honest, I was under the impression the process was generally understood and I find your ignorance perplexing.

9. You're not going to wear that are you?

Yes, in fact, I should think that was obvious from the fact that I already have put it on and am about to head out the door. I don't get fully dressed just to get the mail you know. That's what a bathrobe and slippers are for. You sure ask some strange questions.

10. Why are you eating one thing at a time?

Because I like the taste of whatever food I'm eating. I like macaroni and cheese. Not macaroni and cheese and baked beans mixed together for no good goddamned reason. When you're kids, why do you think there's trays with little separate compartments? In fine dining, why are things brought in courses? I should ask you why you are needlessly mixing all your food together in a way the chef never intended. It's insulting.

On that topic:
NT: "Do you smoke?"
ME: "Yes. American Spirits. As you can see, I am smoking one right now."
NT: "No. Unh... I mean, 'do you smoke anything else?'"
ME: "No. As you can see, I am quite content in giving myself cancer via nicotine, alone."

Unfortunately, I have this conversation several times a week. I guess it may have something to do with me having long hair.

All these I have been asked in the past few weeks.

The "How was your day?" question.
Me: Do you really want to know or are you just being polite?

Do you like my boots? (question from one of my friends thats a girl)
Me: No. I wouldn't wear them personally. They are for women.

How does my new haircut look? (question from ex girlfriend)
Me: Like you got a little cut off. It's shorter.

Do you like my new apartment? (question from a friend)
Me: Someone else lived here prior to you living here. You live in a used apartment.

What do you think my hair would look like if I colored it darker? (question from girl at work)
Me: Don't use crayons. The wax might get stuck in your hair.

How was your weekend? (question from coworker)
Me: Do you want the abridged or unabridged edition?

One type of question that is a problem for me is.......

Do you want help?

(such as carrying things in for you, doing something that appears to me to be basically my responsibility...so when people ask me 'do you want HELP with that' my anxiety level goes up, because it means they are requiring SOCIAL INTERRACTION whereas for me...I just want to 'get the job done' without the distractions of social interraction.....sometimes it feels like an invasion of my autonomy......but anyway.....Do you want help? I always struggle with, especially if it involves them doing work 'for me' when I could really do it myself. On the other hand I don't want to 'snub' them by saying no, sometimes......sometimes it seems like they want to help, and so they volunteer. But to me...it is a source of social pressure, because it involves a bunch of complex small talk while they are helping me, if you know what I mean. Alot of times, though, I just answer positively, and let them help me.....but I doubt that they realize that it isn't my preference......I guess I kind of do it (allow them to help me) for *them*, and NOT for me. If they want to help me....well, OK, if it's that important to you. Sure, and I always say THANK YOU. Sometimes I say thank you by 'doing something' later on but THEY NEVER NOTICE....because I don't tell them it's because they helped me. Then later on they 'stab me in the back' emotionally and never notice the good things I do...they only notice the bad, but they always notice the GREAT things *they* do..... Oh, did I mention THE HUMAN WORLD IS CRAZY, and it appears to be very, very *ego* based........... Sola
