Changing the Subject?

Would you say that changing the subject to completely something random is part of the "Failure of Normal Back- and- Forth Conversation" autistic trait or is it more silence and no reply? 

I've had a look at previous posts and I can't find it mentioned anywhere else but just wondered what your thoughts were?

Let me know

Many Thanks

  • My husband always says I take over conversations rather than go silent, I don't allow others to give their point of view, hence it's not a two way conversation 

    But I have someone I know when I say anything she will change the conversation, that's not her engaging with me in a two-way conversation, that's her controlling the conversation in her direction 

    When this happens to me I can just go silent and not engage further
