Undiagnosed dude here, been accused of it my whole life and people I assume that I have it, yadda yadda
But at every point in my life, I’ve lost people because they grew up while I remained childish. And I guess I’m at that point again, I didn’t want something about my personality I can’t change be the reason I lose people who are important to me
Does this make any sense
I feel like I get this to a degree that makes me uncomfortable. When I tried dating apps, I found that the interactions were so hollow that I never felt like I could be in a relationship with that person.
This is not necessarily advice because I know how hard it can be when it comes to selecting your partner but both of my partners are trans autistic women and that has made a world of a difference.
Sometimes the better option is accepting that some neurotypical people have to work twice as hard to accommodate for some of us, and that's something that is going to make the relationship feel lopsided imo
Maybe I just am too self conscious tho
It’s just like the minute I start putting my foot down people start pulling away
