[QUOTE="HaoZi, post: 422609"] Not all Aspies have eye contact issues, and in some cases it's more of overly intense eye contact rather than avoidance. Kiddo doesn't have eye contact issues. She has humor (it doesn't always make sense to anyone else, but it's there). She can be a very concrete thinker, I had to explain what "My eyes are bigger than my stomach" meant because she took it to mean a very small stomach! Her Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) type things are more like getting so enmeshed in the details of her work that she can't complete it in a reasonable time, is highly focused on marine biology, warrior cat series, and dinosaurs to an extreme extent, very picky with food. Things like that. I'm not saying your J is an Aspie like my J (yes, her name starts with J, too), but to keep an open mind on such things and realize that it is a spectrum, not everything listed is a rule written in stone.
