Or do those terms not really apply to us as part of the autism diagnosis includes difficulties with communication?
A response on this forum prompted me to think: are you an extrovert then?
Most people here appear to be introverts - however, does this just go back to autism?
Years ago I did the Myers-Briggs test and I came out as an INFJ (Advocate).
I seem to remember this was the rarest profile and my autistic friend was the same.

So, if there was a choice between actually meeting a real person in real life or just an image of their face on a computer screen, the screen would win hands down for me!
How do you perceive yourself and do you think the term is relevant as we are autistic?
I was an INFP-A, so I’m autistic terms: Too agreeable to be flagged as autistic, too weird to be neurotypical; I would say that INFP-A is the personality type most likely to be exploited and most likely to mask there problems for fear of being disagreeable.
I perfect explanation for not getting diagnosed for 28 years and never be supported by anyone.
