Not being able to be the one to start an action. I'm not gonna hug or kiss anyone if I won't explicitly say I'd like a hug or a kiss, and that just ruins the moment.

Ahh, yes?

It all depends on the situation. If I'm playing chess, I want my opponent to try and win. If I'm meeting with friends I would like them to hang out at an accessible place. Generally, treat me just like you would treat the next guy. In cases I'm at a disadvantage, all I ask for is equal opportunity. If you don't know whether to help someone, just ask if they need help.

EDIT: Redditors, please upvote this guy's question, it's an important one.

LOL, how did you know? Next year I'm going to study computer engineering in college.

How has your SMA affected your school/social life?

With the amazing support of my parents I have been in normal schools my entire life. Relatively, I'm very independent. This quality allows me to be able to develop good relationships with those who surround me. However, I notice differences between me and my friends. Most of them have girlfriends and already had sex. I haven't kissed anyone. Ignoring the little things (like the example), I manage very well socially.

Has school been a challenge for you, or are there good accommodations and supportive teachers?

Grade-wise, my status is exceptionally good. My parents always researched every institute I went to. Therefore, the schools I went to have been accessible. My current school has one accessible classroom, all the classes I take are there. The school is cooperative in that aspect. The aforementioned classroom was made accessible when I enrolled, for me. During school hours I have an assistant that tends to my needs (feeding, re-positioning, copying off the board etc.)
