Hannibal spreads his hands with a shrug. "No two people on the spectrum exhibit the exact same things in the exact same way, it would be foolish to generalize. It's entirely possible that yes, some people on the spectrum have trouble empathizing with others. But I think it's not so simple as all that.
Obviously, you are able to empathize with others. To an extent that most people are not capable, it seems. It's possible that this empathy puts you in their place so firmly that it's hard to get out of it. And that is what your dreams are."
