Brother called me about eating some Aspergers....like groceries.

That's some pseudo-science bullshyt, as most of psychology is. Those traits aren't a mental illness, it's just part of a personality. You can literally say everyone has a mental disorder of some type

Yeah what once was called being socially retarded is now aspergers

Ive never encountered a woman that was autistic, being so myself. I'm not sure how I would handle it.

We get along well, I have to be patient with her at times but I understand.

A Lot of these top business people have Aspergers. For example, Bill Gates has Aspergers. As noted, it can be one of the milder forms of Autism. They can be very perceptive but can also have a deeper focus on things that others may not understand.

that's the thing some people don't understand it can take a while for some autistic people to catch on to things. I feel like people just give up too quicly at times.

That's the thing. I'm not great with vague hints most of the time. Sometimes I get it. Other times I get annoyed. Id rather not date at the moment to be real.

Oh no I'm not vague with her I'm very blunt.

True. I've always respected people that were blunt and didn't sugar coat shyt with me. I resent that shyt. Because it felt phony. It was like having me stare at a colorful wall of happy things in the middle of a warzone, yet I could hear the gunfire and explosions clearly around me.

Did you see a doctor? How did you grow out of it? The doctor told you that you don't have it anymore?

I think I have mild aspergers. Or I just don't like people
