Quote:So I feel like crap cause I have occasionaly said some stuff I probably wouldn't have said had I known you have AS, so i apologize... It actually makes alot of sense on some levels because i wondered if you just didn't understand sarcasm or facetious comments... Though, if you are just trolling, that's pretty messed up.

 

The sarcasm issue is caused by an inability to understand when a word or sentence should not be interpreted literally - the same problem that caused me to decline a "suggestion" at work. It is also why I make inappropriate comments sometimes. I think of a word's literal meaning and don't see how it can mean something else to another person, which causes me to sound bad when I am trying to be nice. That is a very common symptom for people with AS. Now you know to never make that mistake again.
