I am not good enough for..... [complete the sentence].

You should know that most of the world sees no reason to look down upon living with one's parents. There's no way you're the only one who benefits from this type of family life. I'm ten years younger in your shoes without a degree.. of course these things never exactly equate.

In a group (e.g. in class), when I say something, others don't hear me or ignore me.

I am not good enough to speak.

Yes, I can definitely relate to both of those. I wondered for years how I can be so smart and so inept at the same time, but that's the paradox of HFA for a lot of people.

I am/was not good enough for:
1) A band I was in when I was younger, they unequivocally dumped me as their lead singer, even though they said my voice and talent was definitely not the issue, they wouldn't tell me what was the issue.
2) Being a spa receptionist, a waitress, a bartender, industrial painter ... I've been fired from all of those jobs. They often also refused to give me a definitive reason for my dismissal, which to me, means that it was a social issue, not a task-performance issue.
3) Several men I've dated who just never called me back. Oh well. *shrug*

Oh yes I have had this happen many times

1. Getting certain people who I would like to get to know refuse to get together with me.

2. At my last job, my co-workers would go to each other's special occasions and even get them gifts and cards. When it came to me, none of them attended my house warming open house. I never even got a card or anything either.

3. I have had it where I was not good enough for certain parents of friends with other developmental disabilities. There were several times where that friend would start blowing me off with excuses because their parents did not want us associating. This was because their parents brainwashed them.

Then again, I think this happens to all of us whether we are on the spectrum or not. In general, society keeps just getting meaner and meaner and as that happens, you are going to be treated miserably.

I was fired from many jobs after a week or two without being given a reason including animal care worker in a vet clinic, child care worker, babysitter, retail store clerk, and office assistant.

I'm not good enough for...

f**k anyone who tries to tell me I am not good enough.

That is all.

That's great. I love your comment lol.

Oh and another situation that used to bother me:

1. I was not good enough for an aunt and uncle who I used to live three miles from. I was not invited over to their house, they never associated with me or even called me to see how I was doing. They were scared that I would be a bad influence for their daughters.



2. I was not good enough to get a date or find a group of friends to attend at either of my proms. During my Jr. prom, there was a girl who led me on about doing a girl's night at the prom when when she had gotten herself a date. Then she lied to me and said that I could go with her group as a 5th wheel in a limo. This was while another boy in that group told me that his mother was driving and did not want me along because I am hyper and that his mother was under enough stress.

3. I was not good enough for two NT roomies who were several years older than I was.

A common reason for my sociological apathy....

I wanted to help people and make a difference in the world.

For the most part, the world told me I was not good enough to help others.

Hence, I stopped caring about helping others or the world.

Letting people do what they can goes a long way to making the world a better place.

I'm not good enough to make friends.

I'm not good enough for people to want to spend time with me.

I'm not good enough to get a proper job.

I'm not good enough to be doing the degree I'm doing and will probably fail or be asked to leave.

I'm not good enough to babysit the kids I do and am still not sure why parents ask me back.

I'm not good enough for any of the voluntary work I do.

I'm not good enough for my tutors at uni to actually like me.

I'm not good enough to run a marathon.

I'm not good enough to make real friends at uni.

I'm not good enough to even have a sexuality, much less actually have a partner.

I'm not good enough to be a 'proper' adult.

But I'm working on them!!

I am not good enough for the same consideration NT's give to one another and expect from me.

For example if there is something I want to do tomorrow I must tell my NT about it a week in advance but if he want's to do something tomorrow he just springs it on me at the last minute. And he wonders why I get upset.
