potential schizoid with comorbid mental conditions?

Symptoms/Traits

i've been schizoid questioning lately. however i have a few other diagnosis that may also contribute to these attributes. any insight on if these are normal for my current diagnosis, or if it's warranted to wonder about my being schizoid.

i'm currently diagnosed with autism, schizoaffective bp type, and bpd. wondering if its more than that, given how intense my socialization struggles are compared to other autistics and sza ppl i know. i truly feel broken. non human.

-i am unable to emote/dramatically reduced expressions compared to typical peers

-i do not like ppl recognizing me

-i do have a want to have friends, i think... however everytime i try, im unable to connect and maintain contact with others. i have nothing to say to them.

-i try to go out with others, sometimes, but end up feeling over it SO quick. even if i'm not directly interacting, simply being in a crowded area can exhaust, and stress me

-i can think of maybe 5 ppl i've ever considered friends over my entire life. all of which abandoning me? do not know why they left.

-the exception being my boyfriend of 5.5 years. he isn't offput by my lack of expressions. and doesnt force me into social activities. i can be around him most of the time and not get sick of him. unsure why. his touch doesnt bother me most of the time either?

-anyone else touching me is HELL

-do not care for most of my family. i dont like them.

-can't ever tell what i'm feeling

-little empathy

-long history of preferring individual activities
