I guess if it's a "spectrum" we're all on it somewhere.
I'm an introvert, which sometimes makes me anti-social. My wife says I get "all peopled-out".
Certain odd OCD-like habits also run in my family. My dad used to check to make sure the door was locked like 6-8 times every night. My brother is always checking to make sure faucets aren't running. Me, I just chew my nails -- but if I let myself I'd be checking things constantly.
I also count to calm myself down -- even when I'm not angry.
So, is that on the spectrum?
