Can't Take A Joke

Post Reply New Topic

I was talking and joking around with a female co-worker about how I thought another was attractive, I heard the other one laughing or smiling saying oh my God, but then I asked the one woman if she was angry and she said for me to go find ''another lady'' I asked her if she was angry and she said no why? I spoke to another guy and he said they joke that way, now I have had in my opinion a difficult time with women or I felt humiliated in the past, is it part of being a Aspie that we have to calm down and a rush of emotions flood us, I tend to take myself seriously often and all those incidents are before my eyes

Best not to get involved with other co-workers other than for organizing a union. If things "go south" with a co-worker, you still have to work with them, or worse things like it affecting your respective performances and you or they may lose the job. Better to find others who like to do the same things you do, outside of work.

Don't ever, in any way, discuss a woman's attractiveness unless, in some instances, that woman is a celebrity not known personally to anyone able to hear you.

This is not masking, it's learned behavior. Learning enough of these behaviors will serve you well in life.

she seemed flattered or smiled I was walking away but I saw her, but I think the other woman was joking when she said the other part, that is what the one guy told me, they are both like that and joke that way, I don't know if it's life experiences or just being a Aspie but I joke only a little or can be paranoid, I am respectful and professional towards women though, would never say anything unprofessional or rude
