I was in the dressing room with two of my "friends" and we got into an argument. They both said I was awkward because I made a bad joke on purpose. I said, "It's the same kind of joke you guys make all the time, why is there a double standard?" They said that when I do it, it's just awkward and that I should stop. It doesn't matter what the joke was because this can be applied to almost any situation. I tried to explain that there is a distance between us that I will never understand due to the different way our brains work. I didn't even bring up my diagnosis and they said right away, "No you just need to not be awkward and stop always saying you're different just because you're diagnosed." I told them I don't know how to be the same as everyone else. I said it's unfair that they can say the exact same thing, but when I say it they get uncomfortable for some reason.
Then later a lady walked in as I was looking for something. I started to wring and flap my hands without even realizing it and she asked if I was okay. Then my "friend" said, "See, we're not the only ones that think you're crazy." I looked at them in disbelief. I said, "I know I'm crazy, that's what I was trying to tell you but you just spent the entire argument telling me I'm not crazy. Could you pay attention to the argument you're in?!" This is exactly what I was talking about. They contradict themselves sooo much. It's infuriating.

Are they always like this?
Their behaviour seems nasty. Do you feel that they may become more accepting in future? or that they will keep on acting like this to try and make you "change"? or that there is some other reason for their behaviour?
Do you find their company pleasant?

These are some great questions to ask yourself...I suggest you ditch them and acquire some friends who are open-minded and tolerant of your quirks.

Yes, they are always like that.
I doubt they will become more accepting in the future. They will keep trying to change me for sure. I used to find their company pleasant (well one of them) but not anymore. I've already been kind of brushing them off anyways so I'm already in the process of putting distance between us.

so, they said you were awkward because you made a bad joke intentionally, which is the same kind of joke they make.
but they think it is awkward when you do it.
you brought up your diagnosis to explain the difference in thinking.
they told you to not be awkward.
then when you starting wringing your hands they told you you were crazy? after telling you you weren't?
this makes no sense to me.

I have somthing like this happen to me exept the person who said it want my freinds he a douchbag LOL
he was playing basketball passing it to all his freinds and trying to score hoops i guess and then the ball comes my way and lands in my hands immidiatly they demand i drop the ball as im not worthy ( or somthing very similar to that) and should leave the court as i am a pest as much as this never bothers me becuse i know there personalitys and they are dicks to anyone who they can detect a weakness in but somthing in the way they said it really upset me and i just wanted to go home ( i was at school at the time) and lock my self in my room and when school ended that exactly what i did and afterward i felt alot better 
Still its terrible how as*holes act like this and why anyone should be judged by ... well i have no idea why they said that but then again i never liked them and vice versa
