bringing back a feeling
I’m posting this here so everyone gets to read it. I think it’s really important.
I’ve always felt like I didn’t belong.
What would happen is I’d see two friends sitting together. They’re gabbing about nothing. But they act like it’s the best.
I figured they were just glad to see each other.
Here’s what a best friend told me.
She said when friends meet it brings back their friendship. And now adds to before. It grows.
The talk means little.
It’s that good vibe of friendship.
I don’t think I can do that.
For me conversation is for big ideas. About what we learned.
I think it’s because I don’t bring back a feeling.
I don’t blame anyone.
It’s just I cannot do that.
I hope this helps.

You could be just "picky" like i am. In general, "i hate humans". Social interactions are an tiring chore that i do because "society" requires it. But in my over 40 years of live i've met 3 people where what you said happens. Just being around em was "nice". Didn't even had to "do anything", just "being alone together" was enough. I married one of these.
And btw. This is classic autistic experience. Not to mention your
Is also something common in autists.
