    Do you exhibit selective mutism as well?

    It's the inability to communicate effectively in certain social settings, like school or out in public. However, you can convey yourself with ease when you're at home or with someone you like.

    When you're attracted to someone, how do you act around them?

    How does someone with autism or Aspergers act when they like someone, like having a crush? I'm sure this does happen, although not often.

    Do you ever feel angry towards people or remain neutral at all times?

    No matter how poorly someone has treated me, I can never seem to hate them. No vindictive feelings, no hostility, no bad blood. I just find it impossible of a task to loathe someone. Sure, I get upset, but eventually, I forget all about it in a couple of minutes. I just can not hate people. Are...

    Do you think my lack of social skills and obsessions are signs of Aspergers?

    I'm 15 years old and in high school. I can't recall ever having a single friend in my entire life. Either I'm too shy and dull in personality or too socially awkward--lacking in social cues-- around my peers. It's always between these two strikingly opposite demeanors. At home, and with my close...

    Does anyone else enjoy making people feel annoyed?

    I'm not diagnosed with Aspergers. But I guess I'm bad with words. I've heard that children with Aspergers have a hard time understanding social cues or others' feelings, so I thought this may be one of the manifestations of it for me.

    Let me give an example. At my high school, we're allowed to use our phones and listen to music before the morning announcements. When we had to stand up for the pledge of allegiance, this girl who sat next to me didn't turn her music off. She had earbuds, and half of the class could hear her pop...

    I'm also only 15, keep in mind. I do this to my peers at school, tease them and such, just like all kids do. I don't mean hurt them, just surprise them and such. Plus, I'm not diagnosed with Aspergers, just wanted to know if the tendency for playful teasing this is common among Aspies.

    Does anyone else enjoy making people feel annoyed?

    Yes, and I'm also only 15, keep in mind. I do this to my peers at school, tease them and such, just like all kids do.

    Look, I'm talking about teasing them. The same thing a little boy would do to a girl he's fond of. Act goofy. Act silly. Not hurting them physically.

    Does anyone else enjoy making people feel annoyed?

    What I mean is that I'll sneak up behind them and shock them or touch their face and stuff. I don't mean I deliberately harm them or anything. Also, I don't dislike people. I just can't do it. I just can't dislike nor hate anyone.

    Does anyone else enjoy making people feel annoyed?

    If I'm attracted to someone or like them a lot as a person, I'll annoy them. It's just, for some reason, I gain a sense of triumph, knowing that I can affect the mood of those I like romantically. I would bother them until they're aggravated. It's a delightful spectacle. The madder they are at...
