Post Reply New Topic

You do know the feels when:

Small talk:

Friend: I just bought yesterday the newest fashion trend dress, you totally should try the new kyle jenner palette its awesome.

Me: hmhm

Friend: Oh did you just see that girl walk by, her hair looks so gross. Whats new with you?

Me: Did you know, Bioengineers succeded to create limbs that could works almost as perfect, isnt it fantastic?! It could give people that haveing lost or haveing born with crippled parts give a whole new life quality.

Friend: *rolls eyes, tomorrow is nice weater i totally should go to the beach and try my new bathsuit.

Outgoing:

Friend: hey tomorrow we all planned to go to the cinema to watch the newest action movie.

Me: My apologies i must decline.

Friend: But this gonna be such a fun!

Me: Ive got something very important to do.

*Deep down you know how this would end up if you was to join. Its not like, you are there and simply watch a movie. Its like being trapped with dozens of people in a dark room which you cant escape for the next 3h. Since getting lost in details rater makes you feel loseing yourself then watching the movie for the content itself its the things around oneself thats absolutely terrifying. Its the peoples noises, laughter, smelks, uneccesary tighness with stranger peoples and not being able to relax and getting confortable hence you cant bring the strength due to oversensory to enjoy it.
Since such events to, take allot of time out of the common daily routine which one rater spends on preffered intressts is emotionaly overwhelming. You do not want to explain your friend these things neither thats why saying simply being busy is the easiest way to escape an evening of "nightmares". At the other hand why paying if you can have it at home wraped in a warm planket in quiet at your very own pace and confort at home for free :p

Shoping:

Yees thats another nightmare...

You do not simply go shoping with aspergers well maybe there are types perhaps thats their "obsession but i doubt." Shoping is choices, choices are hard. It needs mental preparing else it gonna be a filthy mess emotional, like going in a store and walking out of it right away. Nowdays there is a way to huge variety of things like food, glothes etc. Its like you go to a store and you do have offered 100 things with a different name but the same meaning its just like trying to open dozens of windows on a commodore 64 it only gonna resault the system to colapse. The mind goes blanc like a white page i can tell you. The worst part since you are in a hurry just to flee back home you wont even buy that you need and eventually end up not haveing any food at home, or wearing your old clothes untill they fall apart.

Oh i have abother good fameous  akward social situation.

Friend, or someone of the family tells a joke, everyone has a good laugh whilst you sitt there like: "yeah, dude whats the point?!" On the top of that everyone turns around and looks at you like: wtf bro: why aint you laughing. Thats the moment everyone realizes the evening has oast its good point.
