  • I get similar feelings, I think it is just part of autism/aspergers (and probably some trust issues).

      • It's had to know how to talk or think about aspergers, but if you go to autism-centred therapy, aspergers people probably part of your 'tribe'.

        It seems derogatory to treat aspergers or autism like an illness in itself, because it isn't all bad: I've seen for myself how it sometimes gives people awesome talents, steely perseverance, nonjudgmental friendliness and a tendency to get intensely into things and become very knowledgeable and willing to share that knowledge. It's a kind of brain-wiring and I've seen it play out as a whole way of life. I don't have aspergers but these people are my tribe. I feel at home around them and drawn to them before I even know they're on the spectrum. With any luck I'll probably end up marrying one if I end up marrying at all.
