i’m the opposite. i’m autistic and instead of getting into unconventional things my special interests are just a conventional thing. like i am OBSESSED with the summer i turned pretty and everyone else around me watches it and likes it but i feel so weird in the way that i fixate on it compared to everyone else😭

the volleyball story makes me really sad and upset because that feeling of exclusion from groups never really goes anywhere. I never really experienced anything as blunt as that but there's just always that feeling that they secretly don't want you around. Not the exact same thing but yea

you just unlocked a core memory bc I also lied about liking one direction (some songs were good but I didn't actually listen to them like that) and I even had to lie and chose i liked Liam (he was the last one out of my friend group that no one picked)😭

I hada similar feeling towards Justin Bieber. I loved JB but not in a Bieber fever way. I thought it would've been cool to have him as a brother

I remember in seventh grade we were in the auditorium, I think, and they were playing One Direction, and all the girls were screaming because this was like peak One Direction 2012/2013, and I remember screaming along too, being like, oh my God, Niall Meanwhile, I do find him cute, but I just couldn’t get into One Direction, nor do I care for them, and I also didn’t care for Justin Bieber as well.

There’s nothing worse than trying and trying and TRYING so hard to fit in with your peers - you just want them to like and accept you - and nothing feels like it’s working.

getting into emo/alt culture in middle school was great for me bc i genuinely loved the music and it wasn’t mainstream but it was popular *enough* to find people who were excited to share those interests

Aza the Dragonfly 🏴☠️ :
IDK if there were any other kids like me who would just watch cartoons/anime and play those online computer games all day and collect toys because they had no social life. I know so many of those virtual worlds and some MMOs from the 2000s and 2010s because I was on the computer so much. I watched cartoons from CN, Nick, Disney, Discovery Family/Hub Network, 4Kids, and even PBS Kids when our cable service went out. If I was up too late, I would watch anime on Toonami with my dad (usually One Piece or Inuyasha or Samurai Jack) before going back to bed. Being chronically on YouTube is also how I discovered Happy Tree Friends (my first Build A Bear was named Cuddles, after the yellow bunny)
