While being good at STEM is certainly a positive aspect, it's true that not everybody in the spectrum think in patterns.
I can think of other positive aspects:
- Most are really honest and pure
- Most are free of vices such like greed, malice, gossiping and superficiality
- Most know what unconditional love is
Source: what my son and husband taught me. Although as an NT mom to an autistic son I might be biased, right?
- Most indeed, can't be too honest and too pure in life though (we tend to become too much of an object of manipulation and derision)
- Those vices (if developed properly) help us survive in the NT society (intuition is more of a development, as opposed to the overtly naive instinct that most posses)
- Love is a passion like any, and unlike any other. It obviously requires focus and patience. It's about sacrifice and sharing. Lots of hard work, pain and suffering. First of all understand that if you love somebody you should set them free (eventually you should tell them about that though). Then find a way to explain to them it's not a gamble (as our current culture enslaves many people to believe it is). Finally show them your pain and make it expressly obvious so that they understand it. That kind of "unconditionality" makes or breaks people (those who are capable of understanding it will, those who don't you should avoid).
