He's not nasty and spiteful at all. No doubt he's a complex character.
And Yinrun is very close to him. She seems to understand him very wel

I also think it’s quite offensive to people on the spectrum, to see his behaviour and the way he’s treating people like dirt for his own entertainment and to just try and link it to autism, it doesn’t sit right with me at all

Default Jordan autistic traits

If he IS on the spectrum then he has no choice how he reacts to situations

I haven’t attended any weddings/ parties/ christenings for decades.. it’s just not an option

I stay at home in my own little bubble


When I was very young I was identified as potentially a very good footballer ( spotted by an ex England player ) but as time went on and more is expected of you as a person I had to step away from football completely



I couldn’t socialise, join in at team meetings, couldn’t even travel to away games with my other teammates

That’s just one example


In my twenties when I’d learnt a few coping strategies - I started playing 5 a side or 7 a side

In one competition where I was having a particularly good day I was asked to play for one of the other teams and I ended up playing for 2 teams in the same day , same competition !

I actually thought he was more of an introvert who made his quirky traits a personality.

Some parents , rather more than you’d expect, are in complete denial and will never admit their child is autistic ..

It’s very common sadly to the detriment of their child

Would somebody with Austim be so self aware as to say that it "is true that I am heartless to some extent"?

He reminds me of Sheldon from “The Big Bang Theory”. He’s just hella awkward.

Am I the only one who finds publicly speculating on whether somebody is autistic to be really bad taste?

Yes. I think there's people why may have it, but don't know.
To be honest I also have some of those traits. But who knows?

Well EVERYONE has similar traits to varying degrees


It’s commonly said that everyone is on the spectrum just at massively varying levels .

Nope it’s disgusting and it’s only being done to find an excuse for his bad behaviour, the attempted linking of cruelty to autism is wildly inappropriate

No it's not making excuses for his bad behaviour. Well not on my part anyway.....I just noticed he is very cold and socially awkward at times , the guy talked about his dad or was it stepdad?... Overdosing and his face showed zero emotion, it was like he was making a dark joke about it in his usual deadpan style.

And Jordan has done things that has annoyed me , he's also hard to read.
