First, I am a late diagnosis, so if some of my terminology is offensive please tell me, assimilation is hard.

On the the point, I have been noticing a pattern, I am in a number of allistic or mixed groups, online or in meetup type spaces. I am trying to expand my social circle, and I have nearly always been alone.

Is it typical amongst nurotypical people to respond to a question with need for information questions and then, when they realize that (and I don’t know which) they’re not interested or they can’t help they just move on, not explain that they can’t help or aren’t interested?

    There are times that I feel like others are taking offense to me asking for clarification. I have found that in some cases my tone of voice is misunderstood, trying to clear up the misunderstanding didn’t help, but it did at least give me an explanation.
