Hey I'm brand new here. My best friend (23 yo male) did this test on an Aspergers site and it was like 50 questions long he ended up scoring a 37. Borderline is apparently anywhere from 26-31 so in his words he "aced it". I told him not to take it seriously because well...the internet, and yet the more I read the more I'm like omg its him. I want to be supportive and buy books and read but at the same time I don't want to freak him out. He didn't seem interested in actually getting tested by a professional and he's been making huge strides in communication all on his own anyway. I'm not even sure what I'm asking here... I guess how do I be a good friend to him? I'm mild bi-polar myself so I'm fairly sensitive and can get emotional easily. I also need help figuring out when he's being insensitive and when he's being aspie. I have no idea if this made sense. In my defense its 230am.
so questions in summary
-How do I be a good friend to him?
-How do I know when he's "teasing me/sarcastic" vs when hes being aspie?

Respect his personal space, be understanding when he doesn't want to socialize, yada yada yada... 
But beyond that, treat him like a friend; and, while we have peculiar ways of reciprocating others' friendship, he has to treat you like a friend as well--and learning about AS can help you tell if he might be or might not be.
