When you describe memorising text, that sounds quite challenging to me. Is the text about a particular subject area?
Aren't we supposed to be bad at a lot of stuff but very good at other stuff?
I guess some people like an interest even if they are not good at it.
I know people who are bad at stuff but still enjoy doing it. I am sure they aren't aware of it.

I guess many of us focus on all of our problems we have. I am one of those asperger dudes.
I cannot have a special interest since I focus on problems too much.
Many people with ASD focus on their strenghr or never care about the problems. They can have a special interest, right?

I think the people who are talking about special interests are only talking about a few people.
They do not represent all of us, I tell you!
