Oh lordie.
I read that Aspie men aren't emotional. Now I'm confused again!
Hi you have my sympathies Nurseangela, there are two basic problems with this question, (who), and (which are you?). With (who), a host of irregular brain development combinations are being dumped in the same bucket, it's like pigeon holing a personality there are always secondary traits which may conflict. On, (which), it can be either or both depending on situation. My default thinking mode is sitting on my iron throne of logic. I will say, "pawn to bishop 3", and a poor NT will start hopping around pulling their hair out, and I'll go "what? that was totally obvious". Mean while their decapitated sacred cow is bleeding out in the ditch. If I step into relationship mode I can be warm and loving whatever...But if stress begins to climb, the emotion begins to drain, like water from a Japanese nuclear reactor..and I get blanker and blanker..until it runs dry and...BOOM! Fortunately I'm H/F so someone has to try hard to push me over the edge. My mother did it to me once at a wedding, just kept picking at me breaking my mental balance, while I was struggling to deal with all the strange people and stuff. Not good! I hope this helps some.
