| Conversation can still be difficult for me at times and I'm 28. One of the things that I tell people is that I can't handle qualitative questions and I need quantitative questions. An example of that: How was your day? VS. What did you do today? I can answer the latter question with ease but the for... |

I think most NTs like noise and pick noisy places to hang out, so I end up being a loner because the quiet places dis... |

| Fast dances are the most popular right now. Salsa, especially, but west coast swing can get you by in a lot of situations. |

| I like to go to the symphony 2 or 3 times a year. Haydn is one of my favorites, and I really like Mozart's sonatas. |

| I'm in love with a guy that I am very sure has AS, he has obviously not admitted that and I'm not asking, impolite. I need to figure out what he means when he says or does certain things, does he realise the enormity of some of the things he says. One day he says something really hurtful and the ne... |

| What if it turns out that I find out that I'm not really autistic and I'm really just one of those NTs with an abrasive personality and ret*d social, language and/or thinking skills and abilities? A diagnosis of autism/AS is meant help you make changes to improve your life. The diagnosis doesn't de... |
