| Yes Soledad that is very difficult. It is more or less expected from you, you read between the lines what people mean, during a conversation. People almost never say directly what they mean, or want. Often also because sometimes people can come across as very rude (sorry for my English) if they spea... |

I was taught - and still believe - that learning speed doesn't really
determine if someone is stupid or smart. Only he who doesn't want to learn

| I think a lot can be expained in terms of inability and unknowingness. Inability from the person in the spectrum; unknowingness from the neurotypical. Our hamperments (<-- maybe that's the inapropriate word for it) to communicate emotions leads to miscommunication. I haven't been in any relationship... |

AS have some sensory integration dysfunctions and special intelligence ("hidden intelligence"), because they use certain neural circuits for analytical and sensory process.
