In my encounters with these types I find them borderline autistic. They have weird interests, weird eating habits, weird taste in music, weird taste in entertainment, and weird taste in women. I think nerds are borderline autistic.

Uh, no. I'm kinda nerdy... love to read, like school, good with math/science, I am NOT autistic.
What are you talking about eating habbits? I don't eat any stranger than you do. My nails are purple(PAINT) my glasses are pink with THIN rims, I like certain pop music, how is SIMPSONS weird(OK, i will consede trek as weird)...and a cute guy is a cute guy.
It's true I don't have many friends, but I am a nervous person in general. Most autistic ppl won't talk, or look someone in the eye, have delayed reading skills, and are permantly crippled sotialy.
You sir need to stop labling people now, that will get you into a lot of trouble.
and I am NOT weak btw

They may be 'weird' by your standards but the last thing in the world that the typical nerd would be is borderline autistic. Around other nerds or people they feel comfortable with they are just as talkative and open and friendly as anyone else. Several of my daughter's friends would certainly fall into the 'class' of people you would call nerds and once I show a sincere interest in their lives or one of their hobbies or interests it's almost like I can't get them to shut up.
Autistic? Hardly. Nowhere near it. But they may get a little defensive (with good cause) when they're around people (like you) who want to belittle or make fun of them.

i could first take him to a different expert who focuses on autism, by using fact utilising the term "borderline autistic" is particularly unusual for a expert. confident, there is an autism spectrum, yet that scientific expert hasn't given you any useful suggestion. i could propose you hit upon out what you're truly coping with until eventually now you attempt to come again up with ideas for dealing inclusive of the doorstep-son's habit. After that, there are multiple components to lead you online.

Not necessarily. You're the one reading them as wierd because you don't understand them. What are you, some jock who can't interpret a smart person's whimsies? I hope you're aware that some people find YOU strange!

Nerd is a slang word for any person who you think does not conform to your attitude towards "cool". Austism is a totally different thing. Google is here for a reason - use it wisely. :-)

Oddly enough, most of the complaints about men from their wives, are symptoms of mild autism! Maybe it's a male disease?

I'm normal. You're weird. Nuff said.
If you understand what I MEAN, you'll grow a lot in only a few moments.

Do your research before you say something ignorant like that.
