Is it normal for as Aspie to be obsessed with objects or items of clothing? i have a leather belt i wear to school and when i get home i like to keep wearing it and when i go to bed i wear my school shorts with the belt in bed, i just like the feel of it around my waist and i like it to feel a little tight but not too much. i like to keep my watch on too, its a big chunky digital sports watch and the boys at school all say its a really cool watch and a great watch for boys and i like keeping it on my wrist all the time. Am i weird?!

Not weird as far as this place is concerned. I did similar school age. I now know that was giving me good sensory input.

Nope. While not quite obsessive, I spend a lot of time for finding watches with ideal functions and durability. I've narrowed it down over time to a couple watches that are acceptable, so I don't stress so much about it anymore.
