Was my councilor jealous of me??

[Candyfloss]

she said you have got skills- you can use them- about bla bla ( about me not wanting to go out etc) she also said u r intelligent- enough- why enough?

and she has made some not nice comments about me before- i asked her do i look weird or anything- she said- no- but also said but dont be surprised if u get looked at...cause you have autism

 

she is well....fat- im tall and sort of slim

 

i am very articulate- like i talk in quite a serious, mature way- and i sound like i know what im on about- im different to the normal teenager...:/ but people dont like me???

Jealousy? Probably not. But still, judging by what you've said, and it is only one side of the story, she doesn't sound like the best of counsellors to me. You need more than basic IQ-style intelligence to have the confidence and skills to go out and socialise with people.

 

It's probably because you are different to the "normal teenager" that your fellow teenagers don't like you. They can't relate to you like they can with their friends. Being serious and mature isn't cool, unfortunately. Give it a few years and you might find people start to attune more to your way of thinking.

 

(Hmmm ... I don't think I've ever used the word "attune" before in my entire life! )
