Aspergers

welbeck Don't - assume that because someone is awkward and difficult they might be 'Aspergic'. By using a word like that you show that you clearly have no understanding of what autism or Aspergers Syndrome is.

The lady you describe just sounds like a fairly normal and ordinary difficult and selfish person to deal with. These people exist everywhere and do not need, and certainly should not have, labels attached them that describe a very specific and precise disability.

As you say, why do you not standup for yourself? People as you describe thrive on bullying other people wo will not stand up to them. The answer is simple.

is being self absorbed"

I self absorption a sign of autism?

No, self absorption is not a sign of autism. My limited knowledge of autism suggests that autistic people are trapped in themselves, rather than specifically enjoying thinking of nothing but themselves and that is a very different thing and manifests itself in very different ways.
