Lots of other examples that apply to multiple friendships that ended or we stopped talking to each other. The worst part is none of us knew I’m AUDHD, so I didn’t have the words to explain myself or my brain, and they didn’t have anything to counter what they viewed as me not caring about them

Or how I did not realize that they were wanting to do one thing because they said they were fine with doing the other thing that I wanted to do, nor did I realize how much they cared about doing the first thing instead. Because I did not understand non verbal cues that they were disappointed/annoyed

for example: I forgot about a LOT of things, including conversations where they brought up something I was doing that hurt them, and then I’d work on it for a little bit and then completely forget that the conversation had ever happened, and forget that that thing hurts their feelings

AND THE CHERRY ON TOP IS THAT WHEN ASKED ABOUT THE TATTOOS SHE WOULD REPEAT THE STORY THAT MY COWORKER TOLD HER ABOUT IT AS IF IT WAS HER STORY!!

like one of them was a tattoo of some sentimental item from a loved one that passed away and she explained that to this girl and this girl went “cool I am going to completely disrespect the meaning and copy this tattoo because I think it would look good for my sticker sleeve”

Started Wellbutrin today too so fingers crossed
