Today I have my good friend here with me, Dylan Mathews. He is someone who experiences the world differently, but despite that he has successfully navigated the dating landscape, found a partner and is married, and now has a kid as well. He has taught special education courses, developed multiple applications and programs through contracting and independent consulting work, and he scored a 1200 on the SAT at 12 years old. Dylan manages his well-being by judging himself internally rather than comparing himself to the world, or to those around him.

“ I run into people that get into this sort of get into this A-social mindset. Heck I’ll strike up conversations with strangers. If you’re nervous about talking to women, talk to an old lady first, things like that.” 12:27
