I love you.
My heaven would probably be a densely populated, diverse city in which everyone got along and there was no crime, people contributed to the beautification of the city, and there was never a shortage of things to do. |

| Yeah, I agree. My younger brother was originally thought to have NLD, and upon further analysis, he was diagnosed with AS.. just goes to show you how many of the manifested symptoms can be the same. |

| Yeah, I can definitely tell if someone may be on the spectrum. Sometimes it's physical cues, sometimes it's the way they speak or the manner in which they respond to interaction or answer questions. For example, I was watching a horror movie last night with a friend of a friend who I hadn't met befo... |

| I"m surprised most Aspies aren't like this. I hear a lot of people with 40 hour jobs and going to college or grad school. For me, Aspergers and depression takes over my life, and in a way, like some people have said, I hope my parents live a long life so I can live the no money or stress life. I un... |

| Well I am sure not like that so I know not all aspies are. I do my job and I know my work would be more important than my obsessions and interests and they are at home waiting for me, same as when I am expecting people coming in and needing me. Yeah I'm guilty not talking to people but if they talk... |

| No. The world requires neurodiversity to function, just as an ecosystem requires consumers and producers. Your huzzy has a great point, though - progress would be slow or stagnant, deadlines would likely be set very late, it would be extremely difficult to get any sort of customer service or technic... |

| LOL. Once when I was 14 and had long-ass hair, the lady only saw me from behind. When I was 18, a girl asked me if I was bi. Whut? Probably because I was skinny and wore tight clothes. But I'm a man thru-and-thru. |
