I wish I knew, for my entire life, why people will choose to sit in any other seat before they choose to sit near me on transit. Do I exude autism?

I’m clean, don’t scream or stare, I stay reading my phone…it’s just damned weird.

Are there other empty groups of seats? I find people generally spread out to avoid others.

It’s certainly something I do. I’ll sit next to someone (choosing the least talkative looking people first) only if there is no other choice.
