[QUOTE="Pinkfreud, post: 683456, member: 18206"] I'm sorry, I don't know how to do the quote thing on here. Thank you Tanya, My "good grasp" on things is from reading this forum. Believe me, I was a basket case last year. Not eating or sleeping, constantly in a state of high anxiety. dreading every text from him. Reading posts for yall ( esp Lil, SWOT, You, Insane, and Leaf....) yall have helped so much!!! I am better at keeping the catastophising ( sp") at bay. But like I said, things are relatively calm at the moment. YEs, Tanya, He has a 136 IQ, and definitely feels superior. Insane, I do suspect Asperger's, for the exact reasons you stated above....he disagrees wholeheartedly. As far as not getting along, part of it is his superiority complex, part of it is he often feels slighted by the slightest things. He also just doesn't like being around people. He has told me he is happiest when doing data entry and being left alone. He held a good job for about 2 yrs, and quit because they took him off data entry and were putting him in another area "even though I am the fastest and most accurate keyer". Fast food jobs are out, because at his last fast food job he had a breakdown ( completely shut down to where the manager had to call me to get him) over being yelled at by a customer. about 5 yrs ago, he shared with me that he was trying to work on his eye contact, and was making a point of making eye contact with ppl he passed in the mall. I know lack of eye contact is another aspie trait. He THRIVES in online forums and on Twitter. I feel that is where you can see his true personality. He is funny and smart and compassionate. BUT...he will tear someone to shreds when he gets into an online argument. [/QUOTE]
