>Girl: "Hey, we have homeroom together"
>Me: "Do you like Kirby Superstar for the Super Nintendo?"
>Girl: "Yeah I guess uh, I was wondering if you wanted to go down by the creek"
>Me: "It's really multiple smaller games in one, offering gameplay diversity you don't usually find in-"
>Girl: "The teachers can't see what goes on there you know"
>Me: "-other titles, and it really builds on Kirby's Adventure rather than just updating the graphics, although-"
>Girl: "We could hold hands on the way"
>Me: "-Kirby's Adventure already looked pretty close to a 16 bit game despite being on the NES due to the quality of the spritework and masterful use of color"
>Girl: "I will kiss you right now if you stop talking about Nintendo games for at least ten seconds"
>Me: "What about Pokemon do you like Pokemon? I hope there's one for the N64 it would be awesome to see pallet town in full 3D-"
>Girl: "Actually....sure, I like Pokemon too, Kirby is my favorite. Let's go down by the creek...and talk about Pokemon"
>Me: *snort* "Kirby isn't a Pokemon they are totally different franchises."
>Girl: "Okay well I'm going now it was nice talking to you sort of"
>Me: "There's also a rumored spinoff being developed where you photograph wild pokemon on some sort of Safari, that sounds dope. Oh she left"

Life isn't over yet, don't give up hope. I'm 32 and have had way more success with women just in the last few years than I did in the entirety of my youth.

Kek, this sounds exactly like my assburgers friend. Well he wasn't really a friend, more like a rival/nuisance.
Anyway, how can these people lack self-awareness? They're usually pretty smart, can't they come up with strategies to help them cope with their inability to take hints?
>>25853861
Nice, I did this shit on purpose though so I don't know your feels.
>video games are more interesting than people desu.
>worst thing I did was hype the bible despite having no religion.
Seconding waifu age.

The specific part of the brain that's broken is the one that models other peoples' thought processes to anticipate how they might react to stuff you could say or to understand how they are feeling based on facial cues and body language. This is "theory of mind".
As you say, conventional intelligence is typically unaffected and savantism is a comorbidity for about 30% of spergs (OCD as well, and more commonly). The rest just get all the downsides and none of the upsides

I just don't understand how very smart autists can't approach normal levels of communication through logic alone. Why can't they just say to themselves "okay every 10 seconds or so I should check to see if they appear interested. I can determine their level of interest by watching their eyebrows carefully and seeing if they do ____."
Instead they seem to face this same kind of problem, multiple times, where they talk at length and bore people about shit.

Because that represents constant, conscious effort. Many do this to fit in, get jobs, etc. But it is exhausting. Like if you had to remember to breathe instead of your brainstem doing it automatically.
