OK, I've been weightlifting and bouldering for three years now.

Now what? Neurotypicals like you never explain the next step.

I recommend not calling someone you exchanged two comments with neurotypical. It's quite rude and in this case outright wrong.

Since we are talking in circles refer to my first statement.

Ask someone out for coffee. (In case you are wondering the unwritten first rule is introduce yourself)

If you have someone like a therapist/counselor/psychologist. I reccomend you work with them to smooth your edges.

You're upset that other person is jumping to conclusions about you, yet you jumped to conclusions about the thread OP and something burger not having the ability to come up with the advice you doled out.

Your responses implied that they needed was some rudimentary social knowledge when they're trying to explain that the loneliness epidemic is more nuanced than the meme portrayed it as.

Tbh your advice was pretty typical

I said ask someone out to coffee and they responded "who"? The implication was that they aren't exposed to a lot of people.

Hopefully seeing my "typical" advice will inspire someone to give it a try instead of just ignoring it as a neurotypical approach.

I'm just trying to spread advice on what worked for me. And I'm speaking in general whereas Nothing burger directly called me neurotypical with the intent to discredit my advice.

That being said I'm getting a little adgitated by some of the dms I have received.
