I was reading that when talking to autistic people you are supposed to give us like six seconds to process something.
I’ve never been quick to answer a question l.apparently Neurotypical people are thinking of an answer before someone is done asking the question. If I take more than a few seconds than other people tend to answer for me and it pisses me off.
I can talk. I don’t need someone to explain my thoughts just give me a few seconds.

This might seem like a silly question, but here we go.
I have really good pattern recognition I’d say it’s one of my biggest strengths . I also read tarot cards for fun. I personally live by that saying “if you don’t learn history, then you’re doomed to repeat it.” I do my best to pay attention to people and their habits as a way to connect. Then I end up scaring them because I know what they’re gonna say or do next.
