Making a fool of myself around boys.

Post Reply New Topic

I have such a hard time, every time I like a boy I screw up.

I've insulted them, intimidated them, been generally weird. I was over at a guy friend's house with a bunch of other boys, and a boy I liked, and he asked his friend to roll out his calf. He was making sounds like, "ooh", "oh yeah", etc, and I'm immature so I started giggling... NO ONE else was laughing. My brother just kind of looked at me. He claims he doesn't remember it, and no one made a big deal but I was making fun of my crush! And being immature. I'm 17 btw.

It's no big deal but boys at this age may be immature too.

I wouldn't worry about it too much.

It's an incredibly common thing that young people make fun of or tease their crush. Always has been, always will be. Fortunately you'll be able to blame this on having a crush on him vs. feeling like you made an error due to ASD.

I'm 31 and I still behave like this. I saw a woman give a lecture on ASD and at one point she asks the audience to remember that people with ASD can be socially and emotionally delayed by 1/3 to 2/3. Expect immaturity and don't be hard on yourself?

If some man in my age group did that, I might be inclined to laugh out of nervousness. I don't think you were being immature. I thought it seemed a perfectly natural reaction to someone acting in a somewhat foolish manner. Don't worry about it.
