I won most of my fights and got booted from school at 16, I did not just quit I was forced out and the realisation I had no future hit home.
Aggression and violence is all I have ever known through out my life and every day I have had to struggle.
My plan was simple, I could rise up to become the top dog and that would increase my popularity but it never worked out.
Being popular is the only thing that mattered and is all that I wanted and I believed fighting my way to the top would make me popular but it was a losing strategy.
At school the popular sport jocks got the girls, nerdy/freak guys go home alone.
I never got over not fitting in at high school and being the freak/outsider.
I am a self diagnosed Autistic: 10 years ago I read the definition on Wikipedia and within a minute I labeled myself as Autistic.
I have no official diagnosis of Autism and I doubt that term fits because an IQ below 70 and low functioning are required to be Autistic.
There is a debate that high functioning Autism is real or not!
If you can talk, have average/above average intelligence and high functioning, you are just socially awkward and no need for a label that makes you weird.
