What is your method of conversing with other people? I have never been good at maintaining a conversation, and I also don't understand how to exit a conversation, I usually cannot stand to be away from what I am doing at the moment and do everything to end the conversation, from acting uncomfortable and continually saying goodbye to resorting to walking out of the conversation (or the room) sometimes so usually I have to resort to asking questions to have a normal conversation with someone else. Is this an autistic trait or am I just weird?


I have the same problem so anymore I try to avoid conversations. If I do have one and it's time to end it, as weird as it feels and probably is to the other person, I just walk away or whatever. The conversation just stops abruptly and I go on about my own business. I just don't care anymore.

Method of conversing? Not at all really. I mostly avoid people. If people do talk to me it's usually to ask the time, or how to do something on the computer, or they ask me for directions. If someone talks to me in an attempt for conversation it usually goes like this

Person: Hi, how's it going
Me: Hi, I'm doing alright(fine, ok)
Person: (Nods head)

and that's just about it. If they give me their name I give them mine, but nothing really goes further than that. I guess I'm just good at repelling people. :roll:
