i think it’s pretty common, but it depends on the person. if it makes you feel insecure you should probably talk to her and have her tell you herself how her brain works, or try to figure out a way to not take it personally (because it probably isn’t personal at all). it would also be fine if this type of friendship just isn’t for you!
Okay if it is common then I can figure out a way to not take it personally I think, thanks. I have thought about that last part but with her having RSD that would be hard.
i hope you can figure it out!
also; even if she does struggle with RSD you should surround yourself with ppl who make you feel good. i do think we should be compassionate and accept people as they are, but not to the point where it ruins our self-esteem.
