Sometimes i feel i could do more stuff if there were less people around. I always do well on projects where i work alone with my hands. I also like nature. I spend a lot of time outside. I am very fit and active. I enjoy running mountains. I have done 30 mile runs before. Having to deal with large numbers of people in my school and community every day just stresses me out. I feel like i could accomplish a lot more without stress shutting me down. I feel i could accomplish more by working with my hands. I want to make a living off the land. I would have a wife with a similar personality, and every so often maybe i would buy things from a country store 100 miles away but that would be it for interaction. I often speculate when I'm reading american history that many people fled Europe because it was overcrowded, then they went west to avoid big Atlantic cities. A lot of people in those accounts are described as "reserved" or "plain" or "humble". maybe that was what aspies were like back then?
