I am literally tired of the cold shoulder approach the world gives me
I might attempt suicide on one of the days when i cant take it any longer

This week there was a meeting in office and suddenly the project head told
me in front of everyone that i have started smiling compared to earlier times

Also one of my colleague asked me why i am so quite??
She asked me whether i am this way from childhood or its just now???

One of the colleagues was talking with others about visiting the mall
I told her i am going there too, when i asked her to accompany me
She said that she would go there after couple of hours not now (not with me indirectly)

I am tired of hearing this every other day
I feel i should just cut off from this world and live in some remote jungle
and do some small time job around the jungle
that would be enough for my survival

So either its suicide or escapism from this comments.

I know exactly how you feel. In fact, I've actually been referred to as "Random Guy Who Never Smiles" by some a**holes at school! WTF?!

I sincerely wish you'd posted this before the recent shooting in Connecticut, because I'd then be able to ask: "Are your colleagues the accepting sort? Perhaps you could find the courage to just tell them that you have Asperger's.", but the likelihood is that you don't want to do that, so I can't give any advice that will directly change the situation.

Do not kill yourself, though. You don't deserve to die over the ignorance of others. From what I've read, it seems like your colleagues are mostly just curious and maybe a little worried. At least you aren't directly bullied because of it, as I have been in the past.

An article was posted in General Autism Discussion yesterday about the positive side of Asperger's, and after scrolling down the article, I found out that the author (Aspie) has a site featuring a guide to social skills, primarily written for other people on the spectrum. I don't know if it'll be of any help to you, as I haven't read much of it myself, but it may be worth a look.

I'm the total opposite.
People constantly ask me why I talk so much, and why I am costantly smiling, but why I don't smile when I hear a joke, or when someone says something they consider "funny". I simply ignore them, because what I do is ok to me.
