I’m not sure how to feel about it. We met on bumble bff and haven’t met in person yet because of school and living situations and stuff like that. But she’s very nice from what I know. I think she might be on the spectrum (I’m sorry if that’s the wrong term) because she does kinda lack some social cues and has reposted some stuff implying it

Like it kinda hurts my feelings but I don’t think she’s doing it to be mean

If she’s on the spectrum you’re gonna have to be direct with her. Set boundaries, and tell her how that makes you feel. Not doing so will only build resentment and not teach her a valuable experience

Thanks for the advice, I was thinking about it but I’m not sure how to bring it up

Don’t assume malice intent, because that only causes a defensive reaction. when you bring it up be like, “Hey, __ ik when you show me cute/funny screenshots of you two you don’t mean anything malicious by it, but I have been feeling uncomfortable by them as of late.” If you want be vulnerable and share how it makes you feel, “they keep reminding me how single I am and it’s not bringing me the joy it brings you. I hope you understand.”

Thank you! Yeah I don’t think she’s doing it to be malicious by any means. I’ll tell her something like this if she does it again
