Originally posted by Hand of HecateThose could be signs of autism / Asperger's Syndrome. If you find it difficult to communicate with your friend, I suggest that you try to communicate over the internet instead of face-to-face communication. This will eliminate most of the problems, as they are directly related to real-life interaction (reading body language and speech tone, tuning into the rhythm of a conversation etc.). If you'd know someone only over the internet, you might not notice any of these problems.
I have this friend, let's call him Wusty, he has the following symptoms among others:
- Does not pick up on social cues and lacks inborn social skills, such as being able to read people, struggles with starting or maintaining conversations and tends to have trouble taking turns talking.
- Dislikes change.
- Appears to lack empathy for other ...[text shortened]... words tend to be flat or, in frustration, angry.
Win a prize if you can spot the disorder.
