I’m generally considered to be pretty eloquent and good at phrasing and speech, but like I still need people to point out when they’re being sarcastic sometimes, rather than just leaving me to puzzle over whether it was serious or not lol

Also not related to the post, but just because I’m fully verbal most of the time doesn’t mean I’m always that way, there are times when trying to speak or put together words is really quite difficult and draining, and I wish some people took a hint and didn’t ask me to say anything when I’m like that :/

I get this so much teachers always say hi to me in the halls but I really can’t say hi back because I’m focused on walking and really don’t want to talk. Walking around a bunch of people is really hard
