My processing speed is below average so, yeah, time goes faster for me.
In general, I think this is a neurodivergent trait. It takes me more time than I think to finish a task, but I think it's because I have ADHD too. |

| Non-native English speaker here (I live in Mexico and I'm trilingual, btw). As BillyTree said, I think it's more related to the (social and) economic development of a country than the language. I didn't find much information about autism in Spanish than in English when I was assessed. I think the re... |

| If a girl is single and isn't constantly hanging out with a group of close friends, then she might be interested. Why do you think that "constantly hanging out with a group of close friends" means a woman would not also be interested in having a boyfriend? I don't. From my experience, wom... |

| Recently I entered a more complex social structure, a company... My boss is constantly telling me "You have to say things with more tact" because she receives complaints about me. From my point of view, I'm saying the correct. She says that what I say to others isn't disrespectful, but it'... |

| I'm 22 and I have never had a girlfriend. I have been in love only 2 times in my life (both when I was in high school), but I was rejected all those two times. My family is constantly pressuring me to get a girlfriend (especially my grandparents). For them, any girl in my life is OK, but it has to b... |

| Since I started working, I realized that people tend to laugh when they don't expect someone to be honest —in some cases, in others, they get upset. |

Anime is full of autistic-like characters.
Other two I know are Shiina Mashiro (from Sakura-sou no pet-na kanojo) and Kasuga Ayumu (from Azumanga Daioh!). |

| I doubt very much you would get honest feedback from your last employer. If they told you why they didn't renew your contract and it had anything to do with your performance, thy would open themselves to a potential lawsuit for discrimination. That's why people get dismissed without cause or employ... |
