Is this an aspergers/autism symptom??

Post Reply New Topic

I'm not sure if I have aspergers but if I do I know I got it from my dad. He is usually quiet and when uninterested in a convo he would make no eye contact which I'm pretty sure are definite are aspergers symptoms. Me and my dad do this thing which I'm not sure if is an aspie thing or neurotypical. When he is talking to my grandmother and talks about personal stuff he usually puts very little input in and just says yes all the time. He does that with a couple other people but not everyone. I do that as well a little. I used to do it but not as much anymore. Also We both do this thing where we are quiet around a friend or acquaintances other friend making the other friend think we don't like them. I now stop myself from doing that and make sure I'm friendly and it always results in people liking me. So are these aspegers traits?

edit: Actually there have been many cases where after getting to know someone they just stopped liking me. Idk I think it's because I'm weird or something.

I think it can be. I often have trouble coming up with things to say in a conversation, so I just say "yes". And sometimes I am quiet around friends because I don't know what to say to them.

well, I would say that if you make an effort and people always like you, it's not Asperger
Asperger is when you make an effort and people still don't like you in spite of that
