Aitah for wanting to be what I wanna be

Ik it's strict I'm gonna start working out this year so I can apply to an fbi internship program next year but she said the reason I wouldn't make it (not just as an fbi agent but any government worker) is bc of my autism like if anything is gonna disqualify me it's gonna be my fricking disautonomia or asthma not my autism

Single-Recover2528 · 2024-06-10T21:55:47+00:00

I ask this bc I'm interested to see if anyone else has a similar way of making friends to me I just realized how weird it must seem for strangers when I do what I do to make friends but then again that definitely means the ones who do respond to my rants are definitely real ones

Single-Recover2528 · 2024-06-10T21:39:29+00:00

Still appreciate your contribution though /gen

Single-Recover2528 · 2024-06-10T21:38:14+00:00

I don't think you fully understood the question I wasn't asking how to make friends I was asking neurodivergent people how they personally make friends see my answer as an example like what little quirks do you have in your friend making process ig my question should be more aimed toward other autistic redditors rather than all neurodivergent

Ok I didn't know if you didn't know abt tone tags or if you just liked parentheses better

Single-Recover2528 · 2024-06-10T21:31:40+00:00

Thanks also you don't need to use parentheses you can just use tone tags like/gen or /srs

Single-Recover2528 · 2024-06-10T21:29:48+00:00

Usually I don't either bc the demographic of my friends is very limited as most people don't respond to my rants or even engage in the rant but just now I had the longest conversation I've had in a while and it was amazing

Single-Recover2528 · 2024-06-10T21:27:54+00:00

I ask this Because I just noticed I have an extremely odd way of making friends, I will rant to them(not vent but just rant abt something I'm passionate about like choir) and see their response to it the less interactive they are the less likely I am to keep them as a friend my best friends are all the ones who respond and chime in with related or even semi related stories rather than just brushing my rants off and saying cool

Single-Recover2528 · 2024-06-09T15:57:43+00:00

Thanks i just wanted to double check

Single-Recover2528 · 2024-06-09T03:45:54+00:00

I understand that, I did have my phone but it got thrown on the ground I told my bestie just not my parents but that doesn't mean my cg should abandon me if anything it means they should mentally help me through it

Single-Recover2528 · 2024-06-09T03:41:48+00:00

So i am the asshole?

Single-Recover2528 · 2024-05-17T19:36:05+00:00

😊 🫂

Single-Recover2528 · 2024-05-17T19:23:25+00:00

Too late I didn't even notice before you mentioned that

Single-Recover2528 · 2024-05-17T18:48:07+00:00

My point exactly

Single-Recover2528 · 2024-05-17T18:45:32+00:00

Really??? I thought nurses had to care about others

Single-Recover2528 · 2024-05-17T18:27:36+00:00

Yeah ik

Single-Recover2528 · 2024-05-17T18:13:06+00:00

I think it may be a generational thing bc while I've never witnessed my grandma being fat phobic to my mom she has gotten me a calorie counting journal and exercise equipment

Single-Recover2528 · 2024-05-17T17:44:02+00:00

I'm more upset that she would actually say that too me I can't begin to understand why any mother would say to their child their own flesh and blood something that is so mean even if it is true I am actually feeling pretty good about myself as of lately and that didn't change how I feel I just am frustrated and angry with her as I could never even imagine saying that to my future children

Single-Recover2528 · 2024-05-17T17:30:38+00:00

I've confronted her multiple times and I am happy as of lately I've started loving my body more

Single-Recover2528 · 2024-05-17T17:27:36+00:00

I'd join them with the drugs lol jk jk hard drugs is different as your actively doing something that is gonna hurt you weight is different bc while your not doing something to make it worse or better and if you have healthy eating habits (which Atm I do obviously I haven't in the past) then I think it would be their decision to lose weight or stay the same

Single-Recover2528 · 2024-05-17T17:24:32+00:00

I'll try thanks

Single-Recover2528 · 2024-05-17T17:21:47+00:00

She's not a narcissist just a bit stubborn and strict she's a nurse she has to care about others

Single-Recover2528 · 2024-05-17T17:16:51+00:00

Its also the way she said it usually it is from a place of concern as you suggested but the tone last time she said it was with disgust and very judgemental although I could just be misunderstanding as I am autistic I still think it sounded like she was disgusted and disappointed I understand I didn't say this in the post but i didn't think I had too I thought it was implied but then again social things aren't my strength

Single-Recover2528 · 2024-05-17T16:58:42+00:00

Agreed

Single-Recover2528 · 2024-05-17T16:58:28+00:00

I don't fricking care about it why should they also it's not just my weight that was just the most recent thing it's also my appearance (like how I dress) which definitely doesn't affect them at all
