Neither of them. Though I used to be type 1 until about a year ago.

Definitely type 2-3, depending on the current situation in my life :wink: well, of course I do think classmates and other people notice that I tend to act a bit stiff and awkward socially, and that I'm not the kind to make contact and take initiatives very often, but I doubt most of the people who don't know me very well privately would suspect anything :) .

To them I am probably fairly normal, a slight bit odd and shy at times, but with good intentions, doing my best to be kind and helpful (though ocasionally I might seem rude or inappropriate when I don't know exactly what to do or say, I reckon).

Maybe I can seem a little cold, too, considering I usually don't show much feeling to those who I am not close to (don't feel comfortable with it, it's just that, I feel exposed and mistrustful), even though I'm a complete wreck of emotions most of the time :? My family, naturally, have noticed my "aspie-mannerisms", I mean they live with me so they're bound to know quite a few things :roll: apart from myself I should think it affects them the most as well, afraid I'm quite a domineering person with firm ideas of what I want, and a strong, uncompromising will :oops:

I'm a cross between type 2 and type 3.

I do find spontaneous social interactions very difficult, but I've learned how to avoid showing any outward signs of my inner problems, at least most of the time. However, most people I know do not even know what AS is, so they just assume I'm shy.

I'm a combination of Type I and Type II. Type I because I am unaware of the social world, Type II because I want to be normal but can't help acting different and my meltdowns are almost never in public.

Aware of the social world like a person with low vision is aware of the sun shining on their skin and sees flashes of light. Never felt normal or wanted to be so but worried I was unique in an unsettling way. Love the new understanding of neurodivercity as an answer to my experience of both of above.

apparently a fat black guy with a lisp, has decided to tell everyone I'm a sociopath, and he decided to go to the same college as me. so yeah screw a dumb n****r.

I tend not to beleive there is a "type" of aspie. I think it comes down to personalities and how they handle/deal/cope with there aspergers.

when I was a child and until I was 13 I used to be Type 1.Then I became type 2, because sometimes I want to be normal but I can`t.People never thougth I have AS because they don`t know what it means but they always notice that I am a different.

I think I already posted here,
but I was a "Type 1" until I was like 15.
Then, I got to Type 2, now I'm back at Type 1,
because I recently embraced myself and don't care what anyone thinks.
