good job, nice service to NT. I would share to autists that it is worthwhile learning the nonverbal communication language and it is possible. I may not catch it correctly 100%, but now I can read NTs much better and respond appropriately...I'd estimate 90% of the time.

What about being able to tell if other people are being deceptive? I've been taken advantage of repeatedly and I believe purely because I believed them and couldn't see the deception. It has been financially devastating at times. And courts don't understand or people judge me for "not knowing".

This came at just the right time. Thanks. 💜

I think when it comes to dating and empathy he doesn’t have it sadly he dumped me for multiple reasons on his part and he’s not been very apologetic or seams like he cares which is heart breaking I’m autistic and I am completely the opposite to him he’s become narcissist
