[quote=Anonymous]OP, one of my closest friends is an adult with mild autism who I met when I was in my mid-20s and she was in her early 40s. She had done a lot of work to understand her own experiences and behavior, and also was an expert and very funny explainer of the rules NT were following that she could not readily apprehend without having them explained. It is one of the relationships in which I have learned and grown the most in my life, and I’m sorry people here are coming at you with this “what do you bring to the friendship/you’re asking too much” biz. (Yes, inclusivity in private life is a benefit both to the person included and to the person doing the including! What a bizarre question that was in an earlier post.)[/quote]
