Actually, for some reason when my roommate's friends come over it happens a lot. I come into the room, and everyone leaves. They say Aspies are rude, but honestly NTs are far worse.
Question: What lesson have we learned here?
Answer: Don't ever tell people you're an aspie (unless they're a psychologist).
You've since figured that out, right?
I think people misunderstood me. I meant a general "they" not her friends. I apologize for the misunderstanding. I wanted to convey that people say Aspie's are rude, yet NTs do rude things without even blinking. They don't know I'm an Aspie. Bleh, I'd never tell my roommate. She called her cousin ret*d until she figured out he was autistic, then she said she felt she needed to stop. I'd never tell her.

Unless it was a very formal situation this would be enough to make me leave. Its a bit unusual to shake someone's hand when meeting casually, the only possible exception is when a close friend is introducing you.
That's strange, because no one has ever acted odd when I've done that before. Oh well. *shrugs*
