I really don't think Aspies, in general, are manipulative people. I find that NTs have a lot of strange notions about us. Like they think we're all rage-filled manipulators.

I told someone I know that I have AS and they didn't believe it because I didn't have(or show) anger issues, constantly wanting my own way, lies, etc. I was pretty taken back by those comments wondering where the heck they were getting their information about aspies.
