Kinda weird that 3 people that I vibed the most in the past either are not in the spectrum, or are on a wholly different level of masking it, because they’re super charismatic
I harbour a conviction that charisma is largely a skill, but being extroverted makes it easier to acquire. One of my best friends is a prom king daredevil life of the party type, but I know him pretty well after 3 decades. He’s bipolar, extroverted, and knows exactly the way to put up a front that will get people in a party mood - which is something he only does during a manic phase. When the high gives way to the low, he turns into more of the spooky enigmatic recluse type. The trick is to befriend both.
The thing is, if you’re autistic it’s super easy to find out who’s neurodivergent - it’s everyone you’ve ever vibed with.
If you’re not, you probably already wanted to stop talking to me.

All the people I vibe with seem (or are confirmed) neurodivergent.
