I’m trying very hard to figure out how to not get burned out on being a parasocial relationship for all the people here while also being genuine. ❤️ I’m Autisitc and my social presentation is that of enthusiastic genuine connection and interest. I love people. I love knowing what’s up with them and how they engage the world. I get invested in their success easily and earnestly. That’s why I rarely try to sell anything, ask you all weird questions or send novels as answers, and like being generally supportive and helpful. I see you all as whole people who have taken time to say something to me. But that isn’t how this all works. I found myself getting invested or attached and then being tossed aside which was very hurtful. Being that I am the commodity here, it’s been very hard for me to draw lines and hold boundaries while giving you all what you want in interaction without feeling fake and icky myself. It bums and burns me out.
