| In South Africa we have Affirmative Action which is purely based on your skin colour and is supposed to address the injustices of Apartheid. But it plays out that my 16 month old white son will not find a job here unless I create it for him when he grows up. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affirmative_... |

| Yip. I have an acquaintance who I would have liked as a friend seeing as I have only 3, so I treated her well, made her tea and muffins, shared books, drove her around and she kept being aloof and occasionally "fake-friendly" and over the top smiley. Not sincere. She would literally ignore my text m... |

| Same here.. It used to be so painful for me and I still cry when I get ignored by some people, (I do! they just don't return my calls for DAYS), but now I've come to the realisation that I'm different, not weird, just different. And that different is totally ok and we are needed just the way we are ... |

Back at you :lol: Many Savants are f'ed, as you say without their support systems of families etc as are almost everyone. I feel that all humans are in need of a deeper connection with other humans... |
