Choosing between Slightly Agree and Slightly Disagree is confusing.
I wish Jeff Foxworthy would just come up with a monologue titled "30 signs that you might have Asperger's" that would be a quick and easy way to find out lol

The two are not mutually excluse. That is, one can have both Social Anxiety and Aspergers, the former usually being as a result of the social difficulties faced with AS. To use an example, a person with Anxiety would not look someone in the eye because they were afraid of doing so, whereas a person with Aspergers would not do so because they find it uncomfortable/distracting from what the individual they are conversing with is actually saying. Which of the two do you feel you relate to more?
