      Ok and? I have autism too and the point still stands. The world we live in exists as it is and we have to work with that, fair or not. Isolation and ostracization arent healthier for you mental health than learning what you can and cant say

        Bruh, did you read what I wrote or did you skim it? I talked about cutting off toxic people, not isolating yourself totally.

          Most people get choosy about their inner circle as they get older. The issue is that most of us still have to interact with society at large outside of our inner circle, and no, telling people who you interact with at work or while grocery shopping to fuck off doesnt end well

            Yes, making new friends is hard. Wanna know what else is hard? Living life surrounded by fake friends that make you not want to continue in life. Choose your ‘hard’.

            What part of that means you have to put up with disrespectful behaviour?

            The ‘fuck off’ is not meant to be literal. The point is to stand up for yourself. If that isn’t viable, cut them off.
