At the Babble Party I want to do fun things together, but I might not talk much. It's okay if I don't want to talk right?
I'm worried about that APA thing...I don't know if I can talk. Will Dr. Bob get angry with me if I cannot talk? Please don't force me to talk.
I don't want to feel compelled to talk. A lot of the times, I just want to be mute. I'm not used to talking a lot.
You can ask me questions and I will probably answer them, but don't expect me to keep a conversation going steadily.
I want Dr. Bob to talk to me. Will he talk to me? I don't want to have to talk back.
I can go for days without talking. I'm a strange person.
I don't have to talk if I don't want to. Can I socialize without talking? I want to do fun things together, but I'm not sure I want to talk. Can I do that? Can I just do the fun things and not talk? I can nod yes or no.
I don't feel comfortable talking to everyone. I don't know why I keep going on these extremely uncomfortable dates with people on the internet. It forces me to talk and I don't want to! I don't want to talk! I just want to sit and drink coffee or whatever! I just want to listen.
I might talk to Dr. Bob.
What if I become mute at the Babble Party? I can just imagine it...people will ask me something and I might not be able to answer. Maybe I'll tell my answer to Dr. Bob, who can then tell everyone else.
Why must I be so strange? :-(
