Uh, it’s pretty obvious by his “Day 3,” post that he has significant social deficits.
I thought I got rid of the deficits, I’d like to what type of deficits you see in me. I thought the only deficit I have is poor conversational ability. Other than that I think I perform better than most NT’s in all other areas, for how much time I put into them. I get into arguments with my therapist sometimes over this.

Did you read my response to your “Day 3,” post?
Someone without social deficits would be able to see these things for themself and not require the to be explained.Your therapist is correct & you shouldn’t argue with them about this. They’re a professional observer of your behaviour and are giving you valuable feedback that you need to hear and learn from.
Q: Have you read Dr. Tony Atteood’s book, “The Complete Guide To Asperger’s Syndrome?” If not, I highly recommend that you do. You’ll learn a lot about the Aspie mind & behaviours that you may not even realize are symptoms and traits of HFA.

I feel like the OP was being used.
I don’t feel it’s because of deficits, necessarily. I feel more like he dug this girl, and couldn’t “see the forest for the trees.” I’ve experienced this many times.
I feel like he would do better if he made sure he wasn’t a second banana.
The girl dropped him like a hot potato once she knew she really dug Zeke.

This is all very possible, but I’m reluctant to say he’s being used for certain because the girl in question is on the spectrum & obviously oblivious to how normal satin and relationships work if she’s enrolled in a course to learn about relationships. It may be that she’s simply making very Aspie mistakes herself.

Hopefully things went well, or at the very least, didn’t go poorly. Better to keep your dignity than make a fool of yourself.
