As an Aspie/autistic person, I sometimes have difficulty telling when a person is joking. Isabella is a person of dignity, and does not want any impression that she is less than an upstanding person. She doesn't like jokes which paint her in a light which might make her seem "less" than what she is. Please accept that she is sensitive of how people view her. This is because of what she has gone through in her life. Please accept that people have different reactions to things. Because they are individuals with different experiences.
It took me a long time to learn this.
Find it hard putting my finger on Isabella because she is not that verbal on her feelings. She is like a turtle, instead of voicing, she goes into her shell. Very understandable, seeing her past. I turned the other way around, was a turtle and became a Wolf. Everyone is different, but it makes it hard for someone, especially on the spectrum, to pinpoint certain signs.
I am thankful for the explanation from Kraftie. That makes it clear. Would have loved to have known this sooner though.
Tried making Isabella like me again, but I get nervous, and when I get nervous, I turn to humor which now I see has been the wrong approach. Essentially, everything I could have done wrong, I did wrong. I'm such an idiot.
Apologize if my humor about you two was taken too seriously. A bit insensitive of me. I am a demisexual and am a bit naive when it comes to that.
People often say they feel my emotions in my writing. Am feeling pretty awful at the moment, am in a lot of pain. Try not to let it seep into my messages, but that can be pretty difficult.
Thank you again for explaining.
