I’m sure this is due at least in part to some sort of self-fulfilling prophecy, as I can identify with and relate to others like me and vice versa, while neuotypicals tend to not tolerate my idiosyncrasies etc. Either way, it sucks being all “I had a social obligation early in the day and it was exhausting but it’s done, I had some time to recharge and I don’t feel like isolating for once” but all I get back is crickets. I don’t blame anyone in the least - everyone’s got their own shit they’re dealing with. It’s just disheartening.
