Hi everybody,

When I was at school I used to have trouble drawing a line under something and calling it done.

I'd either spend too much time planning or continued finding ways of improving it.

Is that a common aspie trait or just me?

Thank you
 
oh yes, I have so much trouble just letting a finished project be finished, I will check and re-check and re-write forever if I allow myself to (or the deadline allows me to). It takes a lot of will power to just stop.
 
I have that too.
If I have the chance, I re-write and try to improve projects and work again and again until the deadline forces me to stop.
I just can't really stop that myself. I almost always find something to do better or different every time I go through the project, even if it's only changing a few words in a sentence.
