Being authentic as a neurodivergent person can be unattractive to others and oneself

[Ima Freeman]

Just had the insight that neurodivergent behaviour is unattractive to other people and even oneself.

The neurotic behaviour, the nervous laughter, the restlessness, etc....

 

Although, off course, it can be attractive too. People like weirdness, stimulation etc...

 

Being authentic or controlled, or both depending on context. What is wise here?

I love it.

I was ugly when I was masking as a normie. 

I live in a stage green environment and blend in so that obviously helps.

Humans tend to feel that if your negative in any kind of way it is because of them. Its kind of like when you stare a monkey in the eyes. It ticks them off. Being uncomfortable is a major hurdle for autistic rizz. Another is a lack of interest in the person you are talking to. 

Passion and sincerity is charming regardless of who its from, which autistis should naturally be good at. Social calibration is a skill issue. Go read The Charisma Myth. It was written by a sperg.

You put too much energy into caring what other people think about you.
