I can explain the Elon thing, which is why I've always known he will absolutely throw you away. He is an asperger autist. He is extremely high functioning. Most people with autism are NOT, which some people mistakenly believe. My son is mid-functioning. However, they ALL share a couple of traits - they are awkward in public settings because they are mimicking what they believe interaction looks like. They don't understand it. They get taken advantage of because they don't understand and take things too literally. However, when they are super high-functioning, they learn this rather quickly and since they don't experience love or sadness the way we do (mostly just obsession or anger) they rid themselves very quickly of anyone that bumps up against their reality. Now, I'm not saying this is a good or bad thing. It just is. However, it's a good thing to know when deciding what relationships you want to nurture. They don't think long-term unless it's something they are obsessed with. Also, do you think Vivek is okay? Alive? What?
