Undiagnosed dude here, been accused of it my whole life and people I assume that I have it, yadda yadda

But at every point in my life, I’ve lost people because they grew up while I remained childish. And I guess I’m at that point again, I didn’t want something about my personality I can’t change be the reason I lose people who are important to me

Does this make any sense

    Yeah it absolutely makes sense, and it kept happening to me as I grew up (especially in ages 12-15). It only stabilized in uni, once I got in a (it turns out) friend group comprised mostly of people with autistic and/or ADHD traits. These experiences have made me very reluctant to bond with neurotypicals tbh
