Back when I was a kid and I had friends, after years of having a normal friendship, I would suddenly begin deeply resenting my friend, become very cold and almost mean, and keep doing that until they stopped interacting with me as much, then I would go back to being friendly and nice.
I fear that if I ever got a girlfriend, I would do the exact same thing. That is why I've been stalking my crush for months now, just walking past her without ever talking to her. The more distant she is, the more intense my love is, I feel like she is my soulmate. If she suddenly started expecting texts or affection from me, I would feel like she is burdening me with responsibility, and would start being blunt and annoyed at her.
And yet I crave nothing more than to be loved by a girl. It is literally all I live for. Having this state of mind is literal torture.
That's why being neurodivergent is worse than simply being ugly. You may pass the looks test, you may pass the "talking stage", but you will never be close to anyone because the very concept of a bond is threatening and feels like an attack on one's self. Being neurodivergent is the truest form of loneliness, because it is passive, not active. It isn't circumstantial, it is your baseline state of mind and it will never go away. Any kind gesture from a stranger will be interpreted in a negative light, any person whispering or giggling in your vicinity MUST be making fun of you.
Keep in mind, being ugly can lead to ridicule that could cause one to develop such a psychological disorder, I recognize that. But if we were to separate being ND from being ugly or being short, I think being ND is wayyy worse.
