| Greeting people I don't know, just because we share the same space - for example, in the elevator, stairs, corridor. The only exception being the doorman or whoever is working in keeping the space clean, because they are doing a service to me. |

| Lately though, she has seemed to have started acting funny with me because her husband decided to set some boundaries that she does not need to talk on the phone so much with her friends or spend as much time with them. That is fine. That sounds abusive to me. I wouldn't want anyone to tell me how ... |

| The good thing about internships is that they have a fixed term. My advice would be to go to the potentially more stressful options, so you can test yourself for a short period of time (eg. 3 months). It would be much worse if you were employed with a regular contract, and then you had to quit abrup... |

| I remember reading somewhere that Aspies like making sense of people by categorizing them. I don't know if this is true or not. I honestly don't think it's racist to categorize people. Each person is different but groups of people share common characteristics - whether biological or cultural. IMO, p... |

| I work in online marketing at the moment. I have been suggested to apply to a couple of companies who use very aggressive ads/email marketing campaigns and I refused. I get too annoyed by that kind of stuff, so it would be painful to do that myself. What I'm doing right now is rather acceptable, so ... |

| Can you (or anyone) provide an example of imagination happening on its own vs. directing it? Eg. a scene of people doing things, or picturing a landscape in the mind. If you are daydreaming and you just let your mind wander, that is spontaneous imagination. Another example would be if you meet some... |
