Hadn't anyone noticed how the writing pattern on WP is so strikingly different between NT women vs Aspie women?
... ... ...
???...???...???...
Would you please elaborate???...What difference???...
Well, like the above exactly.
It wreaks with emotions.
Most Aspie women on the other hand, tend to write like the men here; at least here on WP (I never observed Aspie women on other medias so I dunno if it differs).
There were other NT ladies came and went here over the years who write so much like you.

No. Some Aspie women here do have the same sort of writing style as Clueless2017.
On Facebook and on texts I add a lot of emojis and I don't make it perfected like I do here. On here I like my posts to be more perfected and readable. After all, writing is something I enjoy and is one of the new things I am actually good at, so I might as well use that skill somewhere.
Well, I judge from what I see here. And pattern is just a pattern; it is simply a “trend”, not the ultimate only truth for everyone.

Keep in mind im on the autism spectrum, most likely. I think it's just the problems we have that makes it seem like that
A majority of the people who are dating autistic people may be likely to be on the spectrum themselves, as well as the relatives of the autistics on this site
Well, I recognized you as “aspie“ the moment I read your first post lol. I didn’t even think otherwise.
Writing style isn’t a basis of any diagnosis tho so take all that with grain of salt.

My best friend on the spectrum writes much like that too, optimistic, open-hearted and explicit in a variety of words about their experiences and feelings. He has alexithymia
I found very heartful people on the spectrum, beyond the expectations I had for people
Perhaps, your best friend and i are the same personality-type (ENFJ)...This would explain the similarities in personality that show in our writing ...I find that all humans have more similarities than differences...After all, we are one species...Please say hello to your best friend from my behalf...
Im currently taking a break from him because of betrayal.
He has a Yellow personality, do you relate?

when i talk about my s/o i can be very emotional and I used to be the same when i had no idea I'm on the spectrum, was very much taken for a nt too, and I was also met with discrimination and onesidedness [for being feely, that wasn't on this site btw] .
But I also can talk from a factual basis and enjoy the data we are discussing a lot. I think it's very important to explain things in a logical way, that's how I attained knowledge and not as much through emotional speeches, although I'm of the belief my discussions aren't lacking emotional values.
When i was having issues with dating autistic people though I was in an extreme emotional state and emotional validation and understanding had helped me tremendously.
Im a very cuddly and emotional aspie, but I try to reach Wise Mind [where feelings and logic combine], and I prioritize teaching and sensical matters when replying more than when self talking or connecting with people.
But when im talking from a story of anger and heartbreak I won't express the same things that I can when im in love and wishing the same for everyone else, treasuring the connection despite all things and negatives.
You see when i was thinking im nt and joined a site where i found people much like the person on the spectrum i loved, i was really nice and invested in them automatically. I knew they have a big challenge in life. And I knew I could trust them. I knew they are great people who can be attractive and valuable, even if they couldn't believe so. I wanted to heal them, to show them its possible. To love them. I wanted to ignore if they were blunt even if it hurt me in a time when I was crushed. I didn't show any negative feelings though, I quite bottled up knowing that they have some hardship with speaking in a sensitive way and other things.

NO, I do not relate to this personality-type...It seems more like an ESFP...Research it as i may be wrong...But it is definitely NOT like me...Thank you for sharing...

Post Script: Keep in mind that when someone is unhealthy (psychologically) or immature, that person is hard to "type" and will invariably be "mis-typed"...This is why it is not done in minors...

Rexi, as i read you, i appreciate how far you have come...I mean how much progress you have made...You are doing great!...Keep it up, ok
I'd better start adding love hearts to my posts, as I don't want to type the Aspie style (whatever that is).
LOL ...Love your sense of humor...By the way, Joe, heart-emojies are not used by NTs in general, only very few personalities...ENFJs like me for sure, and perhaps ESFJs like my favorite cousin...Actually, there is an explanation for this: we have extroverted feelings (or our feelings are on the outside visible to all)...An INTJ or ISTJ would definitely not use hearts...Obviously, they do have hearts...I mean they also have feelings like all human beings...But their feelings are guarded, well hidden and well protected...Just a thought, anyway...

A happy excited state makes hearts for me, when im meeting fun people, or when someone is supporting me. A serious state doesn't do that.
That being said we should be grateful someone likes meeting us. It's way better than feeling worse for being here.

Extraverted Sensing is super true for him. Especially since his feelings get delayed with hours, then he starts feeling what he should have normally 3 hrs ago. Then he relies on physical senses to tell if hes stressed, without feeling the feeling

I agree with you in that this personality-type lives in this concrete world called Earth...And explores it through all of his or her senses...It must be FUN to have around someone of this personality...
Your observations of your best friend further confirm to me that we do not share the same personality...As i am not S for SENSORIAL but N for INTUITIVE...This means that i do not live in this concrete world but instead i live in the abstract world, the world of ideas and concepts...I live in my brain more than in my body--quite the opposite of your best-friend...
