I don’t see the jump from “I have problems socializing/functioning” to “I am special/nobody else has these problems”. I mentioned the first comment because
thanks for letting me try with you
seems like a fairly healthy/wholesome expressed thought.
Also yeah maybe both users are just-a-bit-on-the-spectrum and they probably know it. Does that change something, are they too common to express themselves? Shut up and get better or that’s-a-you-problem?
The phrase “I probably lack something fundamental…” is what I’m against. Yeah, it’s a bit pathetic IMO to say something like “thanks for letting me try” (what are you looking for here, comfort? Fishing for compliments? Just for talking?) after a certain age, but you’d be crazy to think I’d say anything but “no problem buddy” to anyone who said that, regardless of how I feel about it. What else would any reasonable person do?
So, at best you have the tisms (being in the spectrum is too common for anyone to accurately say they “lack something fundamental”, but it’s at least a more accurate statement) and lack a diagnosis, at worst your brain is ok but you’re too childish and self-pitying to the degree that makes me side eye you a bit. It’s not a big deal, and it’s not like I go around telling people to shut up, lol, neither the internet nor the world belongs to me alone and I’m not a villain.
