Heh, my sims always end up with the skill traits, and completely missing the social ones. Always ended up haveing no social and going "Stir-crazy" though always were the most skilled sims around. Well, guess it pretty much portrayed me. :) Though, keep getting bored with it, I realise I miss the ent... |

Yeah, I get this, its not too odd that people on the spectrum feel like this. Often I can't figure out what causes an emotion, but sometimes I don't care either :) Though my emotions have been chaotic lately, wondering if it is because I have a crush on a girl or because of mood swings, dont have a ... |

Yeah, I have this too, but it can also be when im thinking. Its a little difficult to describe. One voice is much faster, thought what it says is soon forgotten (Sub-onscious perhaps?) the second is more like an echo that I will remember most of the time I don't hear the first but when I do there is... |

To be honest im the same, I could happily belive in the christian God but I refuse to, in the end I am closer to the paganic religions and happily believe in reincarnation. One thing that has always worried me about religion is that alot of people become close-minded when they get that involved, I c... |

Just to add on, I often compare time like I compare distance. one of my special interests has always been the dimensions and the idea that time is one is almost undeniable. So I suppose people normally would view time as linear, perhaps slightly wavy for times they feel that time itself has travelle... |

I have ADHD which impacts time sense as well. Time flies most of the time. 30 minutes or six hours can feel exactly the same to me. I can't judge how long anything might take to do and get stuck deciding what I should do because I don't feel like I have enough time to get anything done. I can easil... |

Honestly, I think your half-right.

I have selective mutism, too. I hate going shopping alone. When I go with my friends or parents I usually get them to talk to the employees, but when I'm by myself, I usually just end up wandering around if I can't find something and then eventually leaving. Also I get extreme anxiety at the beginn... |

Heh, my dislike is simple, having both selective mutism (Yeah, I have the inability to talk to people I don't know, viscious circle much?) and aspie syndrome I can't talk when I want to and have an inabillity to voice my true thoughts. I often find it irritating that I cannot express my own intellig... |

nd the best solution was pretty sadly just not to say it.
Often wish I could though, I love philosophy and debating, but not being able to express your point makes it pretty difficult |

Yeah, I do, sometimes because I justcant think of anything to say and because I dont want to offend anybody. For a strt no-one close to me has passed away so I can't even comprehend how it must feel, that and I know I might would react to a comment differently to how an NT would. I'd guess that I wo... |

Wow, I just came up with a very good evolutionary explanation :) Anyway, yes I see it as superficial and pointless, to me a conversation must have a point and that people should accept me for who I am, so I struggle with the idea of sucking up to anyone. But the point is the NT's obviously dont see ... |

Same, actually, being quiet won me a few friends pretty strangely.
To be honest though I was more or less the loner in the corner peole didnt mind me. Though having said that, by the time I left school no-one actually did know me -.-
Hope it goes better at College |

Well, aside from my chaotic hobbies, the ones that stay are; Thinking Philosophy (Heh, do we have free will? 8O ) Music and bizarrely lately socializing as well, though that can be a pain, I find most people draining or can't carry on a conversation with them. Other than that, I agree with E-Frame o... |
