Ah, OK. Must've been a typo then. I can only go by what Dutchies have said to me.
I don't think I'm deliberately being standoffish but being too convivial would feel kind of false considering we're all (mostly?) strangers communicating through computers - maybe I'm making too much of that?
For depression and autism, not in the clinical sense, maybe the wider hypochondriac sense. As for lonely, well, if I wasn't, sitting typing and ignoring someone in the room would probably be even more standoffish for them.
For interacting with me, erm, I don't think I'm that good at judging (or keeping in mind) how I come across so it's probably best to ignore tone or choice of words and focus on literal, explicit meanings. I don't know, people don't normally ask these kind of questions but then maybe it's not as awkward to broach the subject.
