Ive been trying my best to be more social and interact with people. My birthday’s this month and i have a lot of plans cause i have friends now, i just got into a relationship last month. But he made it sound like im not or that i dont want people in my life. Im autistic, i may not be social like everyone else but that doesnt mean i dont want friends. I want things to work out with my boyfriend.

And while i can understand his concern about being taken care of cause i can hardly take care of myself sometimes, how am i expected to feel like i can lean on people when no one makes me feel like i can?! How can i when people are so superficial and don’t listen to my needs/issues? How can i when everyone leaves me behind?

Like im trying, but its not my fault that the people i thought were my friends ended up not. Its not my fault my family doesn’t care about me enough to check up on me. That is not my fault! I work so hard to keep the relationships i do have. But its so fucking hard when I’m suffering from chronic pain! Like sorry i have fucking fibromyalgia! I wish i didnt homie!

I’m sorry he said that, that’s very out of line of him tbh. He has no business commenting on your personal life. I promise you will find people who love and support you through your illness, it just takes time and open communication and a little bit of luck. Sending good vibes your way❤️
