That's like saying if I don't pay my loan the bank hasn't lost any money.

You are allowed to imagine a number of reasons why not to do it :)
Coming back to this thread a few hours later... Ask him out goddammit, lol. No one will hold it against you or look at you weirdly, you'll regret not having done it.
There's also autistic people that have completely different social responses, including not smiling when looking at someone. That doesn't mean they don't wanna be friendly.
I'm not saying that's the case here, and you always have to watch out for abnormal social responses, but if you deem someone safe to approach, talking is simply usually the best way to find out about people.
Probably just someone without well calibrated facial expressions. Learned to be very stoic and show no emotions.
Easiest way to find out would be to just ask him what he's thinking when he looks so seriously at you, though I understand that's probably very scary.
You expect me to recognize a joke? 🤣
Please extend my big thanks to your bro :)
Amazing :) thanks so much!
This game was such a huge part of my childhood, and I completely forgot about it, until now. Incredible. Now I have to play this again!
Does it really matter? You could be. But Autism is not something that can be cured, you're just a bit different and have different needs. Getting your needs met and expressing your unique personality is something anyone should do, regardless of being autistic or not.
You have certain traits that cause certain effects. For the way of handling these traits you can get inspiration from professionals or from people with similar traits. If those similar people are autistic, then you can likely be helped for the similar traits even if you aren't autistic, as long as you have shared experiences.
You can just look how you feel when you act like you're on the Autistic spectrum. In the end, those labels don't really mean anything. They're just a way for people to get to know certain people, to get help, to feel seen, among other things. As long as you don't portray any toxic behavior like using autism as a scapegoat to not grow as a person, or gatekeep people, or purposefully invoke pity or similar shit like that, you're completely fine.
You don't even have to tell anyone, you can just look at resources and participate in discussions for autistic people and see if it helps you. If it helps, that's the most important thing, and your label doesn't matter.
I'm no expert. But. Just run away? xD best way to get away from the spray, not sure there is anything you can do if it's just a surprise.
Hopefully this works
