Setting boundaries with a friend

@adk19 At that time, they didn't know. So I wasn't hurt when they started to laugh, I just felt silly. Only a couple of close friends know so far. I've started to be more open about it though since it seem like it was affecting my life. I was always nervous to talk about it since in the past couple of years these mass shooters had it too and I didn't want people to be scared of me. So far it hasn't been an issue except for one of my peers in my department. She wants to be the smartest one so when I beat her or have similar grades she tries to rationalize that since I have aspergers, I must ask questions and learn better. I just roll my eyes though.

V and I use to fight everyone once in awhile because I couldn't pick up hints. I would ask him if something is wrong and he would say no. So I would assume everything was fine, but he thought I didn't care enough to notice. That's not an issue anymore and we have great communication.  

That makes me sad.  I wish you didn't have to worry about that.
