I'm autistic.

You ever been in a situation where some stranger you don't know in the distance says "good morning" in your general direction but you're not sure whether to respond cause they might be saying it to someone behind you?

What do you do in a situation like that so as to not look like an idiot?

Keep your head down and don't interact with strangers unless you 100% have to. This is the only way to go.

Half-respond so you have plausible deniability. I’d half wave and pretend to acknowledge the stranger. If they’re not talking to me they won’t notice. If they are, they will notice

Simple rule of thumb, if their eye's are looking at your eyes when saying it, that means they're trying to be nice and say good morning to you Anon.

Dude, I've been in this situation. Some dude was saying hello to me like as if I was their best friend. Their eyes were looking right at me. And right as I was going to respond to them, oh shit, someone behind me that I didn't know was there says "heyyyyy" and they go hug that person. They weren't looking at me, they were looking at the person behind me, and it was confusing as fuck cause they were basically looking through my head.

It happens to everybody and you just let it happen - most other people won't even notice. The person approaching is focused on the guy behind you, and passers-by are involved in their own thoughts. So, even if YOU are momentarily confused or embarrassed, you can safely ignore it and move on
