Hello. I am new to this platform so I’ll keep this brief.
I was essentially raised in a cult with my autistic siblings being the only social circle I had for most of my childhood. I don’t understand much of anything and when I act like I do, it gets awkward.
My acting Professor said specificity in charachter work was THE key to a good performance. Now when my classmates don’t know an answer, every time, they just say the buzzword… “Uh…specificity?” Everyone laughs. My understanding was that the repetition was the punchline. In actuality, it is a satire of how seriously she takes the craft, since the buzzword often changes.
How can I learn how to socialize with neurotypicals?
You’re doing it. It does not get easier.
Do normal ppl just get stuff? I always have to think about it first
yes, kind of
We all think about it. Some just think about thinking about it more
I’m constantly amazed how normal people can be completely oblivious. We all have our strengths and weaknesses I guess.

I am in a relationship that’s almost a year old. Sometimes I’ll offend my partner and it’s really hard to figure out what I did but that’s an issue NT and neurodivergents experience so I’m not alone I guess
