i was alone all day and i tried on my new clothes for hours. i buy two sizes of one item like a shirt or pants and try them on over and over, one after the other. i had no music on all day, no TV. why would anyone rather be alone doing this at home than being a part of the human race? its just that people do exhaust me as well, i'm always anticipating the dreaded staement "you are so quiet". i so hate that but i can't connect with people so superficially, i need to know their background and figure out what makes them tick.
i'm going to ask my therapist about Asperger's, but he already said that i don't have avoidant personality disorder or another similar one. my relationships with people in general are either A.They think i'm a doormat and try to take advantage of me or B.they think i'm a snob because i don't talk or engage in meaningless banter with them.
