What's weird to me is that I never in my adult life had this happen to me before I moved to this city.
And it started way before I got diagnosed, so I don't believe it's because I've changed my behaviour because of the diagnosis.
What's happening is some people don't greet me. Nobody asks me out for lunch, nobody invites me to anything outside of work.
Most people are polite, but some are downright rude to me, leaves the room when I enter and such.
When I bring it up with the few people I have a bit of connection with they say that I am liked and apreciated by all, but that's not the signals I'm receiving.

I think I can relate to this a bit. Often when I've had girlfriends, their friends wouldn't greet me. This happened a lot if we ran into public, but even sometimes with regular acquaintances. Always seemed strange, but I would never get acknowledged, not even with a look and a smile. Maybe that's normal, but I find it kind of rude.
