Apparently I'm a b***h
I just really want someone to talk to me right now, and apparently I'm a b***h for trying to reach out to her. I deleted my posts when I started getting yelled at. I hate Reddit. I really want friends, whenever I try to get them though I get punished. Teachers used to hate me and call me a stuck up mean girl, etc. whenever I was finally happy for once. I am so desperate for interaction that I will do anything. I always ask people how their days are, if anything new is happening at school, etc. and I'm ignored. I don't get it. What the hell am I doing wrong?
And I try to text people a max of 1 time per week. But I just want someone to talk to me. I don't care who they are, just look at me for 1 second and I'll be okay. My mom keeps me trapped in this house due to her own laziness. Everyone ignores me when I cry. I seriously don't get it. And it's always been like this. Apparently I'm just a b***h and hateable for no reason. They're just jealous, I tell myself.
What kinds of Reddit communities have you been posting in, and what kinds of problems have you had there?
Different Reddit communities are different.
I have no idea. You're doing okay here on Wrong Planet so far.
Unfortunately, there are not many teenagers here, although we do have an Adolescent Autism Forum. Perhaps you could post in there more often?
By this, you mean simply that she doesn't drive you out to places very much? Perhaps this might be due mainly to the COVID pandemic?
If so, hopefully you can at least find some online friends, and then hopefully meet them in-person eventually.
By the way, please see my reply to you here.
I'm sorry to hear this. It would be nice if you parents or other family members could try to comfort you.

I doubt this.

Don't be so eager to be offended. The narcissism of small differences leads to the most boring kind of conformity.
Reddit is a place where everyone is so judgmental and do guilt by association. So much hate on men too because of the assumptions people make on someone because of their gender. Because someone is a guy, people are assuming he must have watched a lot of porn and expects his sex like to be like a porn video when he in fact probably married a woman who is asexual. Women also assumed he must suck as a man if she doesn't want to be intimate with him. Talk about misandry there.
Reddit is filled with trolls because it's a big platform and there will always be a person who will give them attention. If you block someone, it's unlikely you will run into them again.

I'm so sorry cora that sounds difficult. I used to struggle so much in finding friends and I found out I can seem aggressive because of how my autism presents. I know it isn't the same but you should hopefully be safe here. It also is painful to be lonely. I think maybe try to spread out your branches more to other online spaces and maybe do some reading on psychology and body language, that is when I started to find it easier to understand people and get on with them. I really doubt you are what your title says

Most people on Reddit are vicious and cruel. They even makes posts on Cringetopia saying "this is why we need to bring back bullying", because of a video of some awkward teenager pretending to be "cool". As if bullying ever left anyway. You show anything that's even remotely female in appearance and they make rude and sexist comments such as "sighs, unzips". Don't ever accidentally misspell anything, don't make mistakes, try not to let anyone know if you are female or were born before the late 1990s, and most of all, don't ever use emojis. People on Reddit will automatically hate you for some reason if you do.
Posts by people on R/Aspergers are, interestingly enough, some of the least awful.
