Well, I have read the definitions and though I am an odd duck I do like to relate with people to an extent. My friends usually call me before I call them. I am allways afraid of what i will find to say to them and whether or not I can keep the conversation going, so I avoid them. But they love me enough and I must say the right things, becausee they text me and call me and forward me to death. I love them all, but sometimes I just want to be alone. So what do you think of the diagnosis? I have tourettes so I do many a weird thing. I knit everywhere there is possible to knit. People may find that eccentric. I go nowhere with out it. But really, is that that odd?
