Makes you not be normal social so no poon.

I spent years learning socSkills and grow balls to talk, now it's useless since I see how shitty normies are. Self improvement is a joke, jus b urself is a meme. Kill me

I don't have it yet I am not neuro-typical by any metric I have a couple diagnoses not all do I agree with yet some seem to ring true. Interpersonal relationships are difficult and even drain me to some extent. reading people isnt hard I simply do not want to interact with other's in a conventional manner is that so odd?

I am re-doing high school at 21 years of age because I was a depressed piece of shit back when I was a teenager and now I want to go to uni.
Asperger's affects me in that I am intolerant of almost everyone because they bore the living hell out of me and I bore the living hell out of them in exchange, the NPC meme is true, no sign of self-awareness. I just want one IRL friend who is more or less like me.

I just wish I could understand other people and act normal for once.
I can't make friends because I'm either a huge arrogant ass or try too hard to be nice. People also think it's weird when I move around or hit myself just because I felt like it.
I'm happy that I atleast can talk to my bodypillow.

I am a carer and doing alot of self improvement, training for a marathon in March. Have very few friends and i struggle with reading faces and stuff, but i am alot better then I was before. Just wish I could stop stimming and messing my hair up.

It's impossible to make friends. I'm dumb and I make people feel awkward when I talk to them because I can't hold a normal conversation so they eventually stop talking to me.

I'm not diagnosed but I related with every aspect of asperger.. I'm also too old to get diagnosed (38yo) and I'm struggling hard to interact with ppl, read expressions and not act too weird in my job
I tying really hard to engage in relationships but aways fail miserably

I am a recluse who does not leave the house for stretches of 8 months plus. I have no friends, no life, and no desire to join society. I think people who have autism are fellow kin.

sounds like schizotypal personality disorder

femanon on Jow Forums, self explanatory

Pretty bad user. Having no social skills is a serious crutch once you grow up and there's no easy workarounds. Everyone else does it naturally and you can't fake it, no matter what people can tell something is off about you. It's also incredibly lonely. There's still things to enjoy though, just mostly things I can enjoy alone away from everyone else. I wasn't really into anime or video games for the longest but I've finally sunken into them and it's wonderful escapism.

There is nothing wrong with that, you're too harsh on yourself. Elastic is kind of cool.

My life is good.
Doing my own personal projects.
Im terribly nervous around people and when confronted I ramble on about my niche hobbies.

nag i just look like a weirdo, add palm flapping when something makes me happy such as listening to music. i cant control myself at all
wack

Some people celebrate by smashing up public property, or crying and pissing themselves, so are you really that bad?

I keep a lighter in my pocket and constantly rotate it around my fingers, or I'll touch my fingers in alternate patterns. I know it's weird but I don't really care anymore

>lighter in my pocket and constantly rotate it around my fingers
i only do this when i'm high on meth

tfw I was going to reply that it's tweaker behavior

no social skills
no friends
only me and my games
every time I tried it didn't go well, so I stopped looking for friends.

Good so far overall, with a long period of misery between high school and about halfway thru university.
Currently doing well, married, neither of us want kids, good income from writing custom fiction for specific fandoms.
It affects me by making me never quite sure if someone's taking the piss when they compliment me and by mildly fucking with many other human interactions. When I was young I was the weird guy but now I'm just the eccentric and my foibles are largely laughed off.

That's cool, what fandoms do you write for?

>This thread didn't survive long.

We are really alone in this world.

I get blind drunk every night after work and collect guns. Doing pretty good.
