I am ambivalent about that article because I am not sure how useful it is to people with AS. Although I was never an extrovert, when I was younger I could be a relatively talkative and outgoing person who would try to engage with others. Over time, I began to realise that it was not working. Even worse, sometimes my mouth would get me into trouble. So I deliberately sought out and obtained a low level job that requires very little interaction with other people.
