Not contradictory, just autistic. I miss having people I can talk to - really talk to. But I also hate crowds, parties, nearly ever kind of social gathering. I don't know, maybe if there was a party just for NT people.

From past experience, I don't categorize people as friends, usually. I have several acquaintances, people I might go to a restaurant or a movie with, but friends are a different category. Friends are people I wouldn't worry about cleaning the house and making everything "just right" before they get here.

@DayneKnite

I think that's just rude, to only invite your ass. They should invite all of you.

I'm shocked you'd feel that way about such a Great Actor. Just shocked.

And to this day, when I'm walking down the sidewalk, I avoid stepping on the seams between sections. I set my stride so my feet always land on the solid surface.

No, I've been told I walk too fast. I get told that a lot.

Or they're looking to hire a token they can point to, when people ask about their hiring practices.

But what if I really want to know?

My parents were (probably still are) fundamentalist wackjobs. It made things interesting.

I used to tell people I bitterly resented being promised flying cars and didn't get one, but one day I was walking around someone's backyard, having a video chat with someone 3 states away on my tablet, and I stopped and realized "Oh, yeah, this is the future. This, right here."

I don't think so. My life was much the same, in a small town in Utah. My haven was the public library, and I went where ever I wanted, and got books from every section (but lived in the Science Fiction section). It let me know there was a lot more out there than I ever saw in my little town, and gave me hope that I could be part of it.
