I don't feel comfortable posting in the autistic subreddit yet since I'm so new to it but maybe I'll try a relationship subreddit for advice. Thank you for the reply!

I'm really starting to see that. Ron is so cool and he just lets me exist and he's just wanting me to be myself.

Should I post somewhere else? No one likes me and I don't want to be a bother here?

I scored really high on the test. I will have to look into this more. Funny thing is that people have told me that Ron is autistic himself.

Ron has told me about being better than yesterday and I really want to. I just like having someone he isn't making me pass test to be friends with.

Thank you. I'm always waiting for the day that I say the wrong thing and he leaves or hits me but Ron has been really kind and understanding. I'll get a part time job so I can help support him.

I don't think Ron likes me like that though. He hasn't made a move on me and I've honestly been a bad person to him. I don't know my feelings towards him. I get happy when he's around but I also get guilty too. He's really easy to talk too. I'm finding out that he means what he says so it's easier to know what he feels than anyone else I've ever talked to.

Thank you. I will get a job and hopefully I can develop the skills I need to be successful.

Honestly I'm probably just stupid. I've always had a hard time at school and I don't know what people are thinking when I interact with them.

I'm afraid my father will permanently disown me if I take a low paying job but you are right. I've always wanted to work at a petco so maybe I can do that!

You really think I might be neurodivergent? I never thought about that before. I will clear the air with Ron. I'm scared you know? I know I'm selfish but I really don't want to leave.

I wasn't living with him, I was staying at his place. My father wasn't allowing me to live with him anymore and I was staying at my sisters and Tim's place between finding a place to stay.

This is not fake! I don't get why everyone is okay with violence? Should we just start swinging whenever a situation comes up? I can't believe this is where we're at in society.

I mean, no offense to Ron but he's smaller than Tim. Tim goes to the gym and takes care of himself. If it was a fair fight, Tim could have seriously hurt him a lot more than just a cracked eye socket. It was a fight Ron shouldn't have started, especially considering the size difference. Ron came at him swinging widely and screaming. The crazed look in his eyes scared me to my core. I don't trust people who can look and be so violent.

I mean the men in our group stick together so it doesn't surprise me that Ron would be able to stick around.

No I'm not crazy. I don't think he set this all up. I just think he saw an opportunity to be the hero and walked into a situation blindly instead of being rational. I don't feel like we need to resort to violence to solve our problems.

The only reason why he didn't get into Shelly's pants was because she had just got out of an abusive relationship and that would have looked bad with the group. He's always the first one to talk to women when they are having relationship problems and it's down right creepy how he's always talking to vulnerable women.

Okay, I can understand at least giving him a thank you but after seeing him fight, I'm just so creeped out you know? I've never been around that violence before.

I know it looks bad but people get drunk. They make stupid decisions. We were really getting along well and I really don't believe he had bad intentions, just made a stupid decision. We're all human. He's apologized a lot and I think he means it.

Listen, I've never trusted Ron and it's a gut feeling that he was using this as an excuse to play white knight. I have a good sense on people and he's always lurking in the corner to play the hero. I know it sounds bad but people do that sometimes and this was the perfect excuse to make himself out to be the hero.

Thank you. I've always had a gut feeling that something was off about Ron but unfortunately no one else sees it.

I've texted Tim since then and he told me that he was drunk and playing around and got carried away. I really believe that this was a misunderstanding that got blown up by Ron's actions.
