Please Help Me With My Piontless Issues - Tumblr Posts

Guys, I need a little advice.

So, this afternoon I told my Mom and sister of a guy who I'm kinda friends with and he told me about some dude from his school who had made fun of autistic people by doing "weIRd aNd AUtisTiC StuFF " in Front of the whole class today.

And that kind of got me to remember when some guy from my old school asked me if I was autistic, because I was sitting alone in some corner with my headphones put in and writing my storys, and he also said I looked sad, but I wasn't?!

So I told my Mom and sister that story too and my Mom just casually said: "Oh, yeah. Because you had some autistic traits in kindergarten which you still have to this day."

And then I was like: What????

I mean, yeah I know I have some autistic traits that still confuse/confused me, and for a little while I was truly asking myself if it could be possible for me to be autistic, but?!

Mother, you never told me that in my intire life before, like wtf?

And then she just dropped that: "Yeah, I was really worried when you we're in kindergarten, because you were so different from you sister and did not want to talk to the other kids at all, just to the ones you knew and liked and to your sister. "

So I want you to know, I DO NOT want to Hurt/insulte anybody.

But, basically my knowledge of autism is very, very Limited. So I wanted to ask if anybody of you could be so nice and kind to provide me some clarity? (I Trust you more than Google)

And could it be that I'm autistic, but not in a strongly manner like, just a tiny bit or something like that?

As I mentioned before, I do not want to insult anyone by asking my stupid questions and so on, but my knowledge of autism and autistic traits ist really limited and mostly from YouTube Shorts, so forgive me for my cluelessness.(And my bad grammer too, please).
