Glad to hear it. Make sure you let them know that you're failing to understand simple conversations online, because that's a very big issue.

Indeed. Sorry if I was a bit rude to you, though.

I hope you get the help you need, mate. :)

I don't see what's so wrong about how you spell words or use punctuation.

It actually makes perfect sense to me, even though I don't have the same problem. Because I feel like I have the same problem in spoken form. I have difficulty processing spoken words, either speaking them or hearing them. It just sounds like you have the same problem but with written words. In fact, that's sort of what I assumed from reading your posts. It does take a little longer to read, but it doesn't bother me.

Because it makes it harder to understand what you are reading and you have to concentrate harder what is being said. Lot of people don't have the energy and patience for it. A few misspelled words is fine and a missing period or comma or whatever, but if it's too many of them, it makes it so hard to understand what you are reading.

Okay thats it you know im in a very bad mood first of if a person can not read what i am saying then they are not a very good reader in the first place because half of my friends say theres hardly anything wrong with it and is not hard to read. And if you still dont like that then get of my froms and dont read it then you dont got to be worrieing about it. if you still dont like that then sorry not my problem.

Im sorry but i do not sit here makeing fun of your autism then all i ask is not to make fun of my spelling i may have what you do. and i may have a nother problem both are disibitlys both should be understood and respected just the same. goodbye. im not being rude but thats needed to be said.

I am not making fun of you. I answered a post here because someone didn't understand why spelling is an issue nor punctuation. I can read what you write just fine.

Okay,
A) Your friends saying your writing is easy to read does not mean your writing is easy to read. It may mean that they are trying to be nice to you.
B) Not being able to read what you've written does not make someone a bad reader. If a piece of writing has a lot of spelling mistakes then it makes writing hard to read.
C) Nobody has made fun of your spelling. If you feel like that, then that's unfortunate, but that doesn't mean it's true.
D) Yes, you were being kind of rude. People have come on to this thread to try and help you.
E) We can't control what you do or don't understand. If not understanding makes you feel bad then again that's unfortunate, but it's YOU who hasn't understood. Don't blame us.
F) I TRIED to help and explain things, but you wouldn't tell me which bits to explain.

No there serius.
You are thinking i am being rude when i am not im telling you that avreyones jumping on me or it looks as if they are jumping on me about my spelling. if i can not understand this dosent mean anything i can understand anufe to know it dosent feel right on some parts of this convo not all. and what to exsplane ?
There is nothing to be exsplaneing because i cant but if i feel wrong about something happaning im going to point it out. know im not being mean im letting you know. thats what you got to get. i know some of you are not makeing fun of the spelling some of you are. im pointing out names if i was that would be me being mean you understand? just saying. You want me to exsplane i will try and exsplane by saying to you what i do not get is the hole page but im being nice at the same time because i dont want to make avreyone exsplane avrey little part. but if they want to exsplane that is up to them to exsplane. i think i have said that.
I do not understand how im being mean if i am not trying to be mean to anyone and im trying to exsplane things to you and others or point out what i do not like or feel that is a good thing.

No, maybe her friends know her well so they understand what she is saying. Friends tend to understand their friends better.

I tend to say lot of rude things and not even know it but my friends and family are going to tell me I am not rude at all and don't say the wrong stuff. Why? Because they know me.

People may say I don't care nor have empathy but people who know me will say I do.

But I would still prefer for them to be honest by telling me from everyone else's perspective who wouldn't know me well so I'd know. But I can also understand why they may not tell me.

Sam,
What I was pointing out was that sometimes we can feel that people are picking on us or being mean to us when actually they aren't, it is just our perception. So if you feel that people are picking on you because of your spelling, it doesn't mean they actually are.
Sometimes when we are feeling self conscious about ourselves, we feel like everyone else must be judging it too. An example of this is how I used to feel self conscious about my appearance. I would assume that everyone else saw me in the same way, so if someone said "You look nice in that dress" I'd think they meant "You normally look horrible". So I'd get upset at people picking on me and being mean, when actually they haven't. Do you understand what I mean?
I haven't seen anyone in this thread pick on you. They HAVE said that writing with lots of spelling mistakes in is difficult to read, but that's just a fact, it's not personal. They aren't attacking you for your spelling, just explaining to you why some people might struggle to read posts if they have a lot of mistakes.
As for the explaining part, I haven't asked you to explain anything. I was pointing out the fact that in your angry post you suggested that if you didn't understand posts then it was other people's faults for not explaining things properly to you. I was just reminding you that I'd OFFERED to try and explain a post to you if you wanted to pick one out, but you decided not to.

my albiltity to spell comes exclusivly from a spell checker. I handed in papers while in college that I misspelled the same word more than 6 dif ways.
don't worry about it.
when It comes down to it seplling deosn't raelly matetr as long as the 1st and last letters are right. the brain works out the rest on its own.
