It was hard during my middle school, high school, and college years because the people I tried to make friends or to find love with don’t understand my autism, they thought I was weird and awkward and it’s unfair. Being at %COMPANY% feels like a compensation for the loss because the people here understands my struggles and appreciates my talents.
