Aspies For Freedom

For me I'm sure they think I'm somewhat weird, very different, very intelligent but talk too much and repetively and too loud. Some tend to feel insecure around me. But well respected.

Its a bit hard for me to be a mum. haven't got the right bits. LOL.

I don't know. I just attended a education session where the group tried to prevent me from finding some facts/truths. Someone else and I had what might have sounded like a heated argument.
This some one had different ideas to me. In response I stated .... that is all we have two opinions, opinions don't count unless they are backed back some sort of evidence.  Opinions are just opinions ... they don't establish truth without some sort of evidence. I won't be told by anyone to do something a certain way, unless they present a reasonable rationale.
People tried to shut me down as I sought to make my point.
You should have seen the annoyed faces.Some idiot told me off. Frustrating and ultimately humiliating.

They didn't understand, and they made negative judgments about me.
Such is life.

Sometimes I find it hard to modulate my voice and get the right balance of emotions. Too often I end up feeling like a complete fool after those education sessions.

What do others think of me?

   I just tend to get a weird "no reaction" from people, NT or Aspie, even if I am saying the exact same kind of things that everyone else in a conversation is saying.  It's like I always sense this sort of pause after I say something, as though people know they should answer me, but they just don't want to for some reason.

    On the funny side, when NTs are left alone in a room with me, they will frequently start talking to themselves.  It has happened hundreds of times, so I know it's not coincidence.

according to a lot of people
"AN IN DI VI DUAL",goth,mosher,sado,selfish,stubborn,a weirdo,a loser,a loner,nutcase and at primary when I was bullied I got called thick and thicko continuously.

also shy,depressing and obsessed.

Most people think I'm either a moron or a genius, duh.

I can never judge, what other people think of me.
When they come around to say something it´s usually that I ´m arrogant,
or that they  feel uneasy in my present.
Often they say that I´m much to bright for them ( I don`t know why they say it)
They sometimes call me tiresome.
Or they may say that my clumsiness is funny to watch.
(I actually do knock over a lot of things,  as  I`ve always struggled with my movements ; so I guess they have a point there)  

I ´ve been told that I´m cold and  unemphatetic.    
( "inhuman"  - according to my mother).

Actually I´m  just being alone all the time .  

On the positive side I`ve heard: funny, making  unique observations about people`s  behaviour  or situations

Someone once used the word `innocent` about me, and added that  I only got away with a lot of things because I seemed to be without  hidden motive.

I cannot remember being recognized for anything else than being intelligent.

It is best to find you own inner peace - trying to meet up with others expectations .... too often leads to feelings of inadequacy.

Door frames!
My brother once made a joke about me, saying that he didn`t know anyone  else but me who would
`SHUT the door open ` whenever  entering  a room.
And then he added : " after which you  manage to walk into the very same door, you just formally opened "

I´m  not tall (only 1,65 cm) and I`m by no means voluminous, but in spite of that, it`s like there´s no space to manoeuvre ;
-like every obstacle, I have to pass in a room, just moves at the crucial moment - and   my  body being too stiff to adjust.
People make remarks (and not remarks as exquisite as the one my brother couldn`t resist)  

I hate it

good on you

Shrek is living on his lonesome too much for too long I think. Humans aren't meant to live alone. But it is time shrek makes use of the loads of practical advice here on AFF or nothing will ever change.

One does have to watch what one does in most companies. A lot of companies have totally ruthless people further up the chain of command. And they get off on destroying people and other companies if they can get away with it to further their cause. I call them workplace psychopaths and there is no shortage of them either.

We used to call the office where I worked at one time kindergarten or playschool (as a warranty control officer in a new car dealership) as one got a "pep" talk on a fortnightly basis as if one was totally incompentent. And everyone was berated. Women, men made no difference. No-one hung around working there for too long (surprise, surprise)
