One of the measures of human intelligence is the ability to show compassion and understanding to others. People who behave unkindly display a basic immaturity and an inability to deal with others different to themselves. Don't feel badly about it. They are the ones who will lose in the long term. Like attracts like. People who behave like inconsiderate idiots end up being surrounded by inconsiderate idiots. Walk tall and don't let them get to you. In some future time that you can't even conceive yet, you may have the last laugh...and some decent, understanding friends around you to share it.
I don't have SA. I'm just me. A combination of factors. A shy misanthrope, who is occasionally snappy when pushed.
Nothing is funny about it at all Dodger. They're assholes, and you are better than them.
They're excuse is hilariously stupid as well, and is proof of what i just said. How they treat everyone else is inconsiderately and uniform, without bothering to take into account their character. Fine they shouldn't have to treat you differently, because you have SA. But they shouldn't make jokes that bother you because of who you are, and enjoy causing you problems.
I wouldn't treat you differently. Your a human just like me. The way I see the world, I'd see your characteristics and treat you accordingly. If your a nice person thats it. SA or not. For example, if someone is jumpy, and hates frights, and you have nothing against them you don't creep up on them.
This is common sense to me. Therefore people like you describe are not worth understanding. They don't bother to understand. Just condemn them. If you hate people, when they bother you, it makes you angry instead of sad. Anger lends you power... maybe.
My opinion is bizarre. Not sure how much you should trust it. I hope there is something there for you.
