Do you find yourself dealing with frequent miscommunications (big or small) in your everyday life?

Do people misinterpret your actions, assume intentions you didn’t have, or completely misunderstand what you’re asking for? Do you, in turn, find yourself missing what others mean, even when you’re trying to be clear and attentive.

Miscommunications happen for everyone, but for me they seem to happen EVERY FIFTEEN MINUTES. I'm curious if being misunderstood is a core part of the autistic experience.

This discussion is a space to share experiences, compare patterns, and explore what’s really going on beneath these moments.

Lets talk about it.
