Thanks for this Athena .
I have no diagnosis, but I do actually find casual conversations with strangers to be rather tiresome.
Not tiring, tiresome, mainly because of the fact that I feel that small talk is pointless.
Also I dislike the possibility of low level, casual, prying into my life. No need.
If you encountered. me, we would both be ensconced in a book and hoping that no conversation was attempted.
