well the first one i am pretty sure he had it, because he would tell me about things he had created and quite frankly they were pretty amazing. he told me once how he was creating a sci fi story with 35 different dimensions and how he knew all these tiny details about the dimensions. it blew me away. i told him he was intelligent and that he should have more confidence in himself, but of course he didnt listen.
the second guy i left because i really didnt care to find out more, he i doubt. in the short time i knew him he threw so many stories at me about who he was that it made my head spin. they were all feeble attempts to try to explain mistakes he had made. And his explanation for why he was such a jerk to me was that he had Aspergers and BPD and not as I suspected Anti-social Personality Disorder.
The Guy: I have BPD and Aspergers, Yes, that's right (*****) i'm disabled.
SG: Why didnt you tell me this before? If you had told me this before I mightve given you some slack.
The guy: I dont need your pity and its none of your buisness.
SG: ok. fine.

he also tells everyone he has terminal cancer and think that justifies any jerk-wad behavior he may fling at people. This is just another one of his explanations so he doesnt have to take responsibility for the not nice things he says to people.
I dont buy his story about him having Aspergers tbh.
