I also didn't group play, I was physically close to those children but I was parallel playing most of the time.

I was a calm baby, I didn't cry that much and I didn't need another person's entertainment.

I interacted with older or younger children and if I didn't have that chance I talked to some teachers.

I copied people from TV shows or films, their way of walk, talk and personality.

I learned many skills like reading and writing earlier than other children.

I made too much eye contact, I just stared at people's eyes for very prolonged times often causing discomfort.

I didn't know why people felt happy or sad in determined situations.
