    (1) Difficulty starting interactions with others without prompting

    Well fuck, I wasn’t prepared for this to peer directly into my soul right off the bat

      I agree, i wasn’t aware that falls under it. That’s a surprise.

      Well at least now i know why I’m lacking some magical drive that’s pushing people to go and interact with others.

        I thought it was just my Avoidant Personality Disorder.

        You ever suggested to go along with someone to anywhere? I do not recall. Always figured they would invite me if I was wanted anywhere.

          Maybe the difference is where it stems from. Like with avoidant personality that need is still there, just suppressed. But with autism there is no need. The end result is still the same.
          Though take it with a grain of salt as I’m just guessing.

          Why would i do that? Exactly, because if they need or want me, they will invite me.
