Does this ever happen to you? Conversation switch to someone
Quite often it seems that someone at work will start talking to me about something and the conversation seems to get awkward as it usually does somehow. But as I notice their usual uncomfortable look on their face, they almost instinctively turn to someone else in the room to finish the conversation with. The other person is normally not even involved in the conversation to start with.
This happens all the time to me even though sometimes it's before I could even make my first response in the conversation, so what awkward thing could I have possibly done before even speaking?

It could be your body language, tone of voice, or the things you are saying.
A good idea is to ask a trusted friend, family member, or colleague about the things about you that would make someone lose interest or shift their attention. It's a good thing to know what these are so that you can be aware of these things and perhaps work on them.

Given a “tentative” diagnosis as a child as I needed services at school for what was later correctly discovered to be a major anxiety disorder.
This misdiagnosis caused me significant stress, which lessened upon finding out the truth about myself from my current and past long-term therapists - that I am an anxious and highly sensitive person but do not have an autism spectrum disorder.
My diagnoses - social anxiety disorder and obsessive-compulsive disorder.
I’m no longer involved with the ASD world.

Thanks, I will try that out.

Happens to me too sometimes. I think what happens in my situation, people can tell that I'm nervous or off, and then they catch my nervousness and because they don't want to feel nervous anymore they turn to someone else to finish off. Or if noone else is around they quickly close the conversation and run away
