| Also, you could be trying to answer the question before you fully processed what the asker wanted. Give yourself a little time to think and don't feel rushed to say something immediately. Haha, I do this a lot, it gets me into trouble because I answer the question way before I know what is actually... |

| I tend to interrupt people a lot, also am not a good listener (auditory processing issues). So people tend to get annoyed. This is me trying to control what I say as well. The most common complaints about me is "you don't let me finish" and "you're not really listening". If I really get to say what... |

| I also do this, lots. everything must be arranged in a specific order. It's really nice, and I guess soothing is the word. |

| It's really interesting, what everyone has mentioned. What I tend to find weird though is that I keep getting into fights over things I don't think are arguments, it's not like I really want to talk to people about something or mention my opinion. Regardless, I walk into an argument, unbeknownst to ... |

| I believe if you are to be diagnosed now, some still use Aspergers. But if diagnosing specifically by the DSM5 you get 'Autistic Spectrum Disorder', and then a two numbers which correspond to how severe your language and social interaction problems are, and how severe your rigid behaviours are. So,... |

| I know the DSM5 now claims aspergers as a autism spectrum disorder, however what is the exact diagnosis nowadays, I was also wondering how someone would go about filing for disability with the new diagnosis, is it possible, do you have to prove more than in the past? It used to require less than wha... |

| I try to stay out of arguments as much as I can. If I know an opinion I have is going to hurt someone, and it's clear that their opinion are the opposite of mine and they like a good argument, I don't say anything at all. Interesting, one of the weird reasons though that I get into arguments so oft... |

| Telling the truth is not being mean or rude. How can I feel bad? When I had a girlfriend I told her it doesn't make sense to call me rude when I tell the truth. I told her instead she should just think "Oh. maybe I am acting that way...I should change that" But instead she just gets angry and says ... |

| I am going through this right now. Seems like once every other month I have a few days where I get others really upset by what I say. Lately instead of them pushing me away, as I can see sometimes now that I am being misunderstood, I tend to back off now and tell THEM I am not talking to them. I th... |

| Thanks guys, I was really doubting my diagnosis for a while, but I think this pretty much seals it, I was just talking with my girlfriend, and she started to fight me because I thought I found a solution to a problem, recently I realized it's difficult for me to work, because I keep getting into cla... |

| Thank you guys, I have no clue, but this has been happening to me a lot recently, and I just can't figure out why people are getting upset, I feel like everything is always fine, but it seems everyone gets angry. I wonder if people with aspergers can see something I can't, I am really having a hard ... |

| I came here to find out if others seem to have the same problem as me. Recently I realized I have been having great difficulties doing anything without having everyone get angry with me and start to fight. This occurs mostly when we are having a random conversation about something or doing something... |
