I think i'm antisocially ambitious by tendency?

Don't get me wrong, I'm not a complete social outcast, I have friends. To that, I remember in Grade 5 camp talking with some friends around the campfire about our ideal habitats. The answer was unanimous: to be rich and live all alone in a personal skyscraper (and walk around/live naked in it). No dealing with other people, sharing with other people, etc.

Now, given that those people are jocks, I would imagine those values have changed since then. Not much for me though.

I don't really enjoy other people. I diliked sharing my toys and cope well with being alone. Other people generally feel like a "stepping stone" in my road to success.

I observe that most people appear to enjoy other people constantly, spending every waking second communicating. Finding unreserved joy in other people. Not me. I enjoy other people occasionally, but probably as a once in a while "to shake things up" sort of deal. The fact that I have autism may contribute to this.

I also feel like people within my age group are automatically "enemies" also. They emit a "competitor" aura is the best way I can describe it. I can't really feel comfortable / let my guard down around these people.

    You sound like a pretty chill fellow, just saying. I think that you should perhaps find better people to hang out with, there are some very chill people in this world. However, if you want to be a loner, that's fine, nobody is forcing you to hang with people. If you occasionally want to masquerade as an extrovert then have fun with yourself, nobody is forcing you to be alone all the time.

    Most people are totally fucking annoying, and dont get me wrong, i hate people as much as the next guy, but there are some awesome people out there too. The single most rewarding experience in life, is sharing life with others. You need to find people you can be social with, and or get past your social problems. And yes your problem is almost certainly autism, in which case, i am sorry, you were born with a malfunctioning brain. Please do not procreate

    I think this is normal for men, I feel kind of bad for them. I don't understand why they have to compete with eachother for alpha status, that's what monkeys and dogs do!

    Dude I could have written this.
    Literally same situation. I have autism too

    there's nothing wrong with being a lone wolf. you obviously still know how to function socially. your just not that interested in people. and its true most people are fucking lame .

    I also get that hostile vibe off other people my age. It's like a competitive feeling or something. I really don't know why. but I like my friends and am mostly loyal to them.

    I think this normal considering your neurological disorder. Had you not been autistic and had the same issues you would most likely have Schizoid personality disorder.

    It's okay to hate most people and to want to be a loner, but everyone needs someone. Maybe you could try to find at least one friend you actually like. And being so ambitious isn't good, I mean, you can have your skyscraper and all, but try not to see people as 'stepping stones' or 'enemies'. People are just people.
