I am a 17 year old Aspie girl. I have a hard time socializing, and am fairly "weird".
Girls used to mock me. Boys were bad too, but lesser so.
As a teenager, most of the social occasions I've had that have been relaxing, fun, and happy, have occurred when I am the only girl in the social group. Otherwise, the girls have been off-culture themselves, or my cousins, (and even then, not always.)
I don't know why. I flub a lot around guys, too, and conversation topics between girls and guys aren't that different. I went on an overnight field trip with an all-girls club I'm in, and I left anxious. I left a D&D group with boys relaxed, even though I'd flubbed badly there, too.
I think I've been conditioned to think girls are judging me when they're not. I just infer that they're these gossipy, judgmental enemies, and I don't know if that's true, or if boys aren't.
How do I know if I'm among people who I can really be friends with?
