  • Being super focused on detail and liking things to be exactly right has made me really good at my (very niche and technical) job.

    My pattern recognition skills and ability to focus on one thing for a long time without getting bored mean I've stuck with my crafting hobbies a long time and have been able to make some really cool things.

    Not really understanding social norms means I gave up on trying to fit in a long time ago and have learned to be happy as my true self.

    Liking a consistent routine and not too much sensory srimulus at home makes me a good choice to own a rescue dog who needs that type of environment.
