No matter how hard you try do you still mess up?

I was thinking on this last night. Before my NY trip dad said have fun don't upset your sister. BUT I ended up upsetting her DARN IT! (By not carrying the suitcases right and then she wouldn't talk to me the rest of the trip it was towards the end. Also while she was panicky over getting to the bus back to Boston I was like don't worry we'll be fine NO WE'RE LATE OMG! It's ok (I'd say) NO IT'S NOT!! !! !! !! !!) With a coworker I'd literally pull her off to the side and ask if she had any problems with me. Obviously jumping on someone's back is an issue and "hovering" around a person is obsessive so that's bad behavior. So can anyone relate kind of?

Your sister sounds messed up.

How can you carry suitcases wrong? Seesh. Only way I can think of is kicking them across the floor/ground than carying them or pulling them.

LOL! Beth!! ! Well there was a backpack type thing and instead I was carrying 2 suitcases with two hands and pulling them when I COULD of had one on my back. (I guess IMO as an Aspie I didn't connect the dots OH I could do it that way) and I went with my own way (I later get this! Fell DOWN an escalator ROFL! I laughed about it afterwards my sister was like WHY ARE YOU LAUGHING THAT'S NOT FUNNY! I was uh oh ok.) (Obviously inappropriate emotions is a key trait I have in spades unforuntunently) :-(

So you were dragging them on the ground?


My mom has corrected me how to pull my suitcase just so the work be easier and she didn't get upset. And they say we get upset over little things :roll:

I am sure that my partner and I would be a sight to behold in an airport. He is not a particularly happy traveller, and I have a well-honed minimize-the-stress-and-hassles approach to getting through.

Normally we are very tolerant of each others' idiosyncrasies--but airports just seem to bring out the worst in us.

There is no way to NOT screw up when you deal with someone who nit picks.

In more real applications, I went through this a lot because I presumed there was no reason I could not do something (didn't know about AS or how it affected me). So I'd try to do something that seemed easy enough (common morons could do it) and I'd fail. :cry:

yes, there are areas of this I can't affect and sometimes when I try another thing it makes it worse.
