"autistic people are bad at lying they can't even do it at all."

No we absolutely can lie out of our ass, we just actually took the childhood lesson of "you shouldn't lie to people you like because it'll hurt them" to heart and apparently missed the memo that instead of you like and want to trust someone you're supposed to play bullshit mind games and not be too honest too early or something.

#actually autistic #autistic problems #like if I don't give a shit about a person and telling them the truth will get me hurt or impact my life I'll lie like crazy #i once convinced my mom i barely spent any time at all on the internet when I was spending 6+ hours a day online at 16 #but that's because my mom was abusive to everyone else in my family and i stopped giving a shit about her feelings as self preservation #and because telling her the truth would let her see all of my venting online and put me at risk #“you're bad at lying/you're too honest” nah bitch i just actually want to be friends?!#but apparently being too honest means you're actually bad at friendship so wtf #now i only hang with neurodivergent punks who also have their own shit going on #it's a hell of a lot easier
