Enemies will attack you; but only family and friends will betray you.

Certainly the serial killer interest won't go well with all that, especially not in the few years of them getting to know you

Gossip can be very powerful, sadly, especially for women. They are inherently scared of advances, rape and being killed.

While all that makes sense, I haven't talked about serial killers with anybody at work. And it's not like it's my special interest, I watch some documentaries sometimes, nothing more.
My stimming is quite discrete. Pulling my fingers underneath the table and things like that.
I'm not that fond of gossip, and I tend to stay away from that kind of practice. In fact I usually say something of the sort of "shut up, I don't want to know" if I hear gossip.
The main thing here is that I talked quite a lot with them about my autism and tried at least to explain what it means.
The other thing is that their behaviours changed abruptly from one day to another.
The second colleauge already had some knowlege of autism, since she has autistic friends.
And I'm almost 53 years old, I would have thought that something similar would had popped up previously if I'm actually acting creepy.
And as I said, I tend to get along a bit better with females than men, so it makes little sense for me that I should be seen as a potential rapist or whatnot.

Either way, they don't trust you. So jus forget about them. Be careful about trying interactions at workplace, your job position could suffer.

Probably true, but my last fear was of the dark and I got rid of that when i was 7 yo. Except for my fear of hurting others.
Anyways, it is ok now. I have got some information about what's happening and what's happened in the past.
Taking your advice I won't say more than that about that.

Having had I guess 100 female friends of some level, from work, during my career, some just nice co-workers, some real friends, and a couple of girlfriends, I don't really think that its typically a cause of problems. Perhaps it can be, but I haven't personally experienced it before.

But nevermind, I've moved on. Some people just don't deserve to be let to drain me from energy.

You can have 100 good experiences and then 1 bad, it's not unusual and they are not connected to each other. People are different, their fears and desires too. You say a sentence to 100 and they will like it and then comes a new one and she/he will hate it.

That said I suspect you were probably too friendly, so she misinterpreted it - and she either didn't want anything from you or the opposite and she was angry she misunderstood you.

The second girl probably talked to the first one. Women are really weird creatures, I could never understand when they are overanalyzing things and taking a revenge.
