[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Infodumping is how neurodivergent folks connect. Don't correct it! If you really can't listen at a particular time, you can tell him that, but do your best to listen (or at least pretend to listen). Find books or shows about his special interests that you can read/watch together. Help him find a community of others with that interest so they can infodump together.[/quote] I agree with this. I don't think it's seeing another person as a "vessel" it's just a way of connecting that's a little odd if you're not autistic. Lots of my friends are autistic adults, and I always see it as an expression of friendship, because that's what it is.[/quote]
