For my 'friends';
Thanks for all the conversations I started.
Thanks for all the phone calls I had to make.
Thanks for all the text messages I send first.
(I like having to be the one to talk to you first, really)
Thanks for 'forgetting' to invite me to the movies
Thanks for 'forgetting' to tell me you'd changed your plans
Thanks for 'forgetting' about all those little things you do
(It's not personal? Of course, I understand)
Thanks for your understanding about my AS.
Thanks for your understanding about my phobias.
Thanks for your understanding about my anxiety.
(Born with it? Nah, I choose to be this way)
And finally...
Thank you so much for treating me like a human being.
It's appreciated.
(I wonder if they'd even recognise the fact that this post has been dipped in sarcasm)
