So I know that online quizzes for anything will never be fully reliable, but would you recommend that someone who had got high scores on many different tests for aspergers should look at getting a diagnosis?

Recently, I've been looking into my mental health, and along the way have looked into the possibility of me having aspergers. The traits that seem to particularly fit are the social difficulties; I remember never making eye contact with anyone before the age of 12, and can only do it with a concerted effort now. I also displayed a strong lack of empathy. For example, I once made a comment about how it would be better for the child to die rather than the parents, as the child would probably die anyway without their parents, and anyway, they could just have another child. I could not understand why this would be seen as a cruel comment to make, as it was the logical thing to say, but I didn't mean to hurt anybody by saying it. Even though I now have an idea of what things are likely to be seen as crue, and when I should be empathising with people, I still do not really feel for people.
There are also some other things that seem to fit, and some tests seem to indicate I was well over the thresh-holds to seek a diagnosis. Based on the results attached, do you think that I should look into whether I can be diagnosed with aspergers?
