8 signs you might be boring someone and I'm not sure of you as an Aspie but I know for myself I wouldn't know alot of these and would just go on and on about my special interest oh the life of an Aspie LOL!

I do all of those things even when I'm not bored. If I'm genuinely not listening, I'll be oriented toward the person, and looking at them, and generally giving the appearance of perfect attentiveness, while my mind wanders away happily to think about my interests.

what I thought was great about this article was the list of subject that are almost UNIVERSALLY boring. My personal favorite on the list was:

"discussing the latest changes in your child's nap schedule."

Seriously, NT's discuss this sort of thing ad naseum. And we think Aspie's can be boring? HA!

I do do all those things. Though I love to discuss dreams I've had, along with any of my interests. Then I'm the one who can go on for hours.
