Kailey, you just described both of my difficult child's almost to a T.  Definitely look into it. Both of mine are VERY social and do well, depending on who they are interacting with. The more they know the people, the less likely anyone would notice they have issues with social situations. That is why many professionals have difficulty diagnosing. Even they have pre-conceived ideas about every aspect of Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) that don't hold for ALL kids. When you've seen one kid on the spectrum, you've seen ONE kid on the spectrum. That's why it's a spectrum. My two boys couldn't be more dissimilar yet they are both on the spectrum. difficult child 1 doesn't like touch but difficult child 2 does not recognize or respect personal space. difficult child 1 is more shy in new situations but difficult child 2 is more outgoing. Do you Know what I mean??
