Though not often, and it's cause I don't have the time, I play Badminton and a little game of Soccer. Any racket based really for some reason. Also Rugby, don't know why, but something of that sport appeals to me. Maybe it was because I was born in New Zealand.  |

Nicolas Winding Refn. He seems to be very detail oriented with his films and socially awkward. |

I could make eye contact with people, though not recently, I just think it is my ADHD. I have done it properly before, but now I just don't. |

Hello I'm an aspiring screenwriter with two scripts completed. I have been writing about a person with Aspergers and ADHD. Mainly the movie is with my experience of having Aspergers, but now looking back, I think collecting other people's experiences would be helpful. So, my movie is called "The Sta... |

I used to have a ton of "shutdowns" or "meltdowns", but now not so frequently as before. I still get them, but specific triggers have to be in place in order for it to set off. |

I can't tell if a girl is flirting with me or being interested in me. Girls have been interested in me in the past, I just didn't realize it until a few weeks after, but that's it. I also couldn't read if people didn't like me or not, but with experince, I learned. But it ain't all bad, one of my fr... |

Ah yes, the idiocy of some NT's. This is why I won't tell the "mainstream" NT about my conditions. New opprunities for bullying may arise. My NT friends aren't judgemental, butthey aren't part of the "mainstream" crowd at my school. |

Only a few good friends of mine know about my Aspergers and I know there judgement is a lot better. Except for one, I need to make sure she doesn't perceive me as some kind of threat. |

I apparently have the most plain facial impressions. I'm mostly perceived as being quiet, though people do find me funny. |

I won't argue that Friendship is a great thing, however it can be unpredictable. You don't know when the other person is pack up their bags and leave.
It's happen to me too many times. I still haven't gotten used to the feeling. I'm not sure if I will. |

When I was 10 years old, I was diagnosed with Aspergers. Looking back at my life, I always had trouble socializing and reading body contact.
(Btw I'm gonna use the Aspergers definition till May of next year, when DSM-V comes out) |

Not being able to function properly in a group, and having poor social skills. Because I can't make friends properly or function well like other NT's, I feel left out. The interests only annoy me slighty, but it's the social part that I hate about Aspergers the most. |

Type 2 to Type 3, around that level.
I don't have public meltdowns, I am somewhat socially awkward, with some people not others. Only one friend thought I had AS, others were like what? |
