hi everyone ! i have recently been told by two friends that i appear to have autism or more likely aspergers .i have been emotionaly or mentally disturbed for a few years brought on by lifes strains and difficulties . i am 58 , i behave very similarly to the kids who find things very funny . shallow crude "jokes " i find rather distasteful . anything with depth , wit , and insight i find hilarious . i find a lot of people dont understand me because they are not inteligent enough or perhaps dont see as deeply into things as i do . my language skills are above average but its difficult for me to comunicate . i assume people say what they mean because i say exactly what i mean so there can be no confusion but it appears that most talk in riddles or euphamisms or hint at what they mean out of general politeness !! most people do this filtered ,reading between the lines stuff and make slight faces etc to comunicate . i dont get it at all . i see it afterwards but thats too late . i have very few friends and live a very lonely life . this is a poor attempt to describe something that has troubled me all my life , due to comunication problems its almost imposssible to make it clear without others misunderstanding me . worse when i was a child , much much worse . sorry i say too much too !
