Boy, I tell ya. I'm also having to condition myself to realize that nobody gives a shit about my reasons and will probably just yell at me arbitrarily anyway. It's so hard to be basically friendly anymore.

this also happened to me but i'm not anymore hostile or bitter, i just don't jump the gun when talking with people. I know i have my autistic arguments ready to go, but i don't need to bust them out unless there's a real need to
