McAnulty is spot on with my thread meaning.
Having confidence in yourself does not mean to act like a jerk.
It's about encouraging yourself to talk and not thinking of anything that you believe they don't like about you.
Confidence is about being certain in your abilities or qualities...
Overconfidence are what the jerks tend to end up because they think have the power to do what they please.
Yes, this is EXACTLY what is hard for Aspies to come by, because we usually do not have sense of exactly what we are doing.
So we look over-confident.
One who knows what he is doing is called confident.
Asperger's by definition is an impairment in knowing what we are doing socially.
