What would you think....?

Question

You're at a church event & a college girl is sitting by herself (away from everyone else) starring into space. She doesn't really interact with anyone from her own church but tries to make other churches feel welcome. Why? The only thing is she's sitting with her knees pushed up under her chin with a skirt on. Ewwwww!

Answer 1

It sounds to me that this girl could have some form of autism.

The severity of symptoms varies greatly between individuals; however, all people with autism have some core symptoms in the areas of:



Social interactions and relationships. Symptoms may include:

Significant problems developing nonverbal communication skills, such as eye-to-eye gazing, facial expressions, and body posture.

Failure to establish friendships with children the same age.

Lack of interest in sharing enjoyment, interests, or achievements with other people.

Lack of empathy. People with autism may have difficulty understanding another person's feelings, such as pain or sorrow.

Answer 2

she may of started her periods and just  wants time alone to get round it all.

Answer 3

I think she is one of those people who have a certain kind of diease or they are "challenged".

Answer 4

Try getting to know this girl.  She may be challenged or 'special'.  She might need a friend.

Good luck!

Answer 5

You can never know unless you ask! It is not easy for anyone to open his/her heart to a stranger. If you convince someone that your intentions are good and you're willing to help because you care, then things can be easier.
