What kind of NT's do you like best?

Post Reply New Topic

I'm just gonna give you a thought since you brought something up: regarding "talking about the problems our country has"...when you get older you might realize, as I have, that the whole thing is a massive joke, and since Day 1 we've always had these problems, and always will...cause we're humans, and we actually like things that way.

Humans just like to b***h and complain. Check out the 48 Laws of Power; it's on there.

Otherwise, I hear ya sista

How do I like people to interact with me?
That question mystifies me. The only thing I can think of is what celebrities have. I want that. They have what are called "Personal Assistants" and that's what I crave. One of those. I want to pay someone to do things I hate doing and since they are an employee there isn't a lot of bs and if there is I can say "Here's your pink slip".

I prefer the very intelligent and slightly eccentric types.

It is very tedious trying to have a conversation with a conformist and relatively unintelligent person. What is there to talk about with them?! Fashion and Celebrities? Puh-leeze.

I love having deeply intelligent discussions and debates with people who are actually willing to discuss facts in detail and research their topics and come to me with even more thought-provoking facts to make me want to go home and do more research. Plus, their eccentricities make them even more interesting, and it makes them unlikely to conform like everyone else.

Too bad I have only met two people like that ever, and I lost contact with one of those people. The other person is now my fiancé.

i do not really like the term "NT". i would have been an "NT" if i was not born autistic. i do not feel like i am a separate species.

i am not upset about being not complete, because there are many things i see in "complete" people that i would not wish to have in me.

i will call "NT"'s "people".
anyway, i like people who do not try to imagine what it would be like to live in my life.
i like people who are happy that i am content and who do not try to advise me that i need to change.

i like people who see that my "content-ness" is based on reality and not a whim.
then they respect me. even though they know they will never be in my world, they respect that my world is OK.
i respect their world too.

I'm actually a guy, I just chose the name "GreenPele" because Pele is the Hawaiian Goddess of Volcanoes (I'm 1/4th Hawaiian), and my favorite color is green.

NTertaining NTs topic

I find NTs the most annoying when they are herding and bullying. I have found the best encounters when they are by themselves or in a help/professional mode so there is the focus on one thing. I have no patience with those who have mental health/substance abuse problems, as I am clueless as to understanding why they engage in this self-destructive behaviour. Artsy types are cool, as they are focusing.

Like many others here, I find when NTs talk about their interests, and it is interesting to me, we have dialogue and connection. Chats with seniors about the old days are interesting too, because of the visuals (old cars, clothes, radios, etc. Like watching an old movie. )

Gay ones.

Exactly. People willing to question everything around them rather than blindly kowtowing to percieved notions, traditions, and social norms.

Also, geeks, artists, and people who follow Voluntary Simplicity.

ecentric.. introverted and dont mind deep thinking also... what about people who think they're nt because the do not know otherwise....

Many of my friends aren't conformists and could be classified as "dorks". Interestingly, most of my friends were either in Special Ed or Honors courses. Many of the people I tend to hit it off well with happen to be into science, teaching, or artsy things. I get along well with extraverts and other introverts (like myself). However, when it comes to romantic attraction, I tend to be drawn to extraverted people.

Adding to my earlier post: I also get along well with hobbyists. I think it's because I can relate well to the strong interest in a subject, even if I'm not particularly interested in their hobby.

maybe

You should change the question to "What kind of PEOPLE do you like best?". I will answer that one.
I like people who are nice to me and don't bully me because of my AS.

I like intelligent and sensitive people the best. People who make me laugh are also nice to be around.

I'm an introvert myself but NT introverts can be difficult for me as awkward silences come up where I feel like I'm expected to say something but I have no clue what to talk about. Extroverts are fine as long as they give me space when I need it. I couldn't hang around extroverts 24/7 without eventually wanting to shoot myself. I guess a middle ground works the best for me.
