What, how? They are very loving and emotional. The autistic people ive met are very intellectual and not very emotional⌠Very much living in their heads. But I have only met like⌠3âŚor something. :)
Just cause we donât show it outwardly as often, doesnât mean we autists arenât very emotional. I think more so than most non autistic people. Remember it is a spectrum. For example Iâm like gigantic and fairly well built (think Jason Witten but shaved head) and Iâll surprise (scare) some dates because Iâm not afraid to cry on occasion. But it also may be my upbringing more than my diagnosis.

Weâre generally not ânot very emotionalâ we just show it differently and less. But it could seem so if you canât decipher the differentness.
