I fixate on certain interests to the point where I can't focus on the actual necessities of life (building a career, maintaining relationships, basic household chores). I understand why that makes me pretty hard to tolerate, I get annoyed by other autists who do the same thing in favor of their own interests (and I'm sure others rightfully see me the same way). Still, every time I've tried to change and be a better person, I always get burnout and revert to pursuing my fixations, so I've just accepted that I probably won't ever be a very pleasant or functional person.
