    Self-employment?

    I am self employed and successful. I hire NT's to do the things I can't do well or don't want to do. They get a job by making my life easier --- I get to concentrate on what makes the money. Win/win!!!

    Romantic relationships between neurology

    You are 100% right --- I am NOT good at all in discerning the intentions, and automatically accept people at face value, perhaps even projecting my positives onto them. I used to think I was really incredibly stupid --- but now I realize I am really incredibly vulnerable because I can't "see"...

    Romantic relationships between neurology

    I believe that all of my "couples" relationships have been with NT's --- and therefore all ultimately unsuccessful. I did not find out about the spectrum, and my likely place on it, until I was 50+. It explained some of the reactions my partners had and things they did to me --- even in those...

    United Airline "incidents" raise questions about the safety of autistic and disabled persons

    Which is EXACTLY why I don't fly anymore --- ever --- period. My family thinks it's stupid and selfish of me because I can't go to some family functions anymore, but I just don't want TSA touching me. I asked about the Pre-Check Known Traveler Number (KTN) and even called to talk to TSA. I...

    The Extrovert Aspie

    Ya caught one!!! Natural born ENTJ --- yes, Aspie ENTJ!!! I can't remember names, and I have some issues with facial recognition --- so why not just talk to everyone?!? I was one of those kids who "never met a stranger" and I guess I just never grew out of it. However, most of the items...

    So I opened the door, and then . . .

    . . . said "Hi" to everyone!!! I was at an Aspie meeting this week and the topic of discussion was extroverts. Well, there are two of us in the group --- one young and one senior. That got me to doing some Google research, which brought me here. I think I will poke around a bit and see...
