Does it ever feel like sometimes you understand then BAM it doesn't make sense.

You have a friend or friends, and then they put up a fence.

Do you even know what you are doing wrong, or is it so obvious what you've got.

This is autism for a teenager, is it so, or is it not?


(Really, what do you think about this, does it describe or not?)

Yes, something like that.

Just recently I noticed people whom I have gotten along with for a few years suddenly start to ignore me on facebook. No exaggeration we don't talk for months at a time which is hardly an insult we weren't that close just roommates but it is confusing that now they ignore me and seem to do so with what I would describe as malice. It seems they are mad at me and the only reasons I can think of are 1. They heard something from someone and believed them (w/o asking me) or 2. Some unknown factor that doesn't really matter to me but changed them while we have been apart. In short I have no idea why they ignore me now, I really don't but I know I was always friends albeit distant ones lately with them so I figure they just went another direction in life. We weren't ever really close so it isn't a big lose but is still confusing.
