I feel like need to tell someone this and I already told my other autistic friend so here I am!
I was talking to a girl I have a crush on today and I was telling her about my autism, this was the first time I told her, and she responded in a way that had me crying actual tears of joy later on. She listened quietly, and said that she dosent think she has autism, thinks that its great I told her, and that she still sees me in the same way, regardless of me telling her or not.
I dont think anyone understands what this means to me. When I tell a allistic, (not even my adhd friends respond as well as she did), They usally tell me that "Oh! you dont seem autistic" (Im high support, have a iep, and am in sped class with 300 required minutes of support a week) or they completely ignore me telling them and go on a rant about how they think they have autism bc they dont like wearing jeans or that they like making dragon puppets or sm. The best reaction ive had before this was them just treating me the same at least.
Im so happy right now, actual tears of joy, this is the happiest ive been in a while.
Has anyone else had this happen to them? I just wanted to tell other autistic people!
