Yesterday on my train ride home I overheard a conversation next to me because I didn’t have my headphones in. They were talking about “being different in the head” and some point they dropped the term “neurotypical”. So clearly I had some neurodivergent people next to me talking about how it affects their life, what are the odds?

So what did I do after wanting neurodivergent friends for a long time now?

Nothing.

I just sat there, listened and didn’t say a word because I’m a dumb fucking idiot.

    You’re not dumb. IRL isn’t like a forum or chat room. People tend to get upset when strangers just jump into their conversations, in my experience, so I don’t do it even when I really have something to say.
