People often ask me if I’m pissed off or if everything is okay if they catch me unawares.
Like no I just didn’t see you there and couldn’t get my face ready in time.
My wife has several immediate and extended family members on the spectrum and she still tells me things like “I don’t know why you say you don’t like parties, you did great and looked like you had a fantastic time”
Apparently “you were all SUPPOSED to think that” is not the correct response.
