Another thing that leads me to suspect Asperger’s-like symptoms with CeMar is the curious lack of reactivity in him, just as Southerngirl mentions. I have not seen him ever get mad. Even when someone attacks him, he does not seem to internalize it, which leads me to now suspect that he doesn’t “get” those attacks either. Could that be consistent with what his W might be experiencing?
Rather than get mad, CeMar just goes away for a while. He then comes back with the same tunnel vision type of question. It is like an obsessive-compulsive thing with him. I find it hard to believe someone has the endurance to keep up a “game” like this on the board for so long. That’s why I wonder if there is a better explanation. Asperger’s kids don’t necessarily get mad over attacks on their ego, their self respect, etc. They get mad and obsess over principals, morals, whatever it is they have made into a passion. CeMar is fixated on sex but does not seem to be able to relate sex as an act to himself as a person. Anyone else see other things in him?
