* AmbiguousDisorder: She struggles to understand facial expressions and nonverbal communication.

* {{Asexuality}}: While she ''understands'' sexuality, she doesn't actively partake in any of it. She's disgusted when Charlie's friend suggests they date, and Ginny even comments that she doesn't date anyone.

%% * MotorMouth: Considering it's Amy Sherman-Pallidino's writing, it's a must.

* {{Asexuality}}: Her interest in sex seems at best nominal. She's only dated once and was quite happy at the idea of going to the prom without a date.

* CoolBigSis: Subverted. This is how she tries to be towards the students at first with poor results. Starting to play straight in regards to Sasha. whose first impulse on Michelle's return is to run into her arms, crying happily, and asking if she can stay with her. Michelle for her part, gestures for Sasha's boyfriend to scram. By the second part of the first season, due to CharacterDevelopment, she actually wants to avoid parts of this trope since she now sees herself as/is trying to be a responsible authority figure to the girls and a role model. * * 8* * DeadpanSnarker: Duh.

* CrazyPrepared: Knows a lot of random skills like disabling security systems. It's shown that when she goes all-in on a project, she goes ''all in'' to the point of learning everything she can about it.

* TheCasanova: Has fallen in love, married, and then fled multiple women/towns, usually in the course of a few weeks. Unlike many, he really does love those women as he believes in love at first sight. Of course, he also believes in love at first sight which is why he makes the poor judgement of marrying women after only knowing them for a week.
