When an autistic person really likes you (platonically or romantically) and you haven’t set explicit clear boundaries, they don’t know what your boundaries are. If you are nice to them, they will think you really like them too. They will message you constantly and like all your Facebook statuses and fave all your tweets. They have no idea you might find this annoying and not a mark of their love/liking/respect, which it is intended to be.

I do this. I have seen other autistic people do it to others. Fellow autistics have done it to me even and one is right now (though I am probably different about it than what an allistic person does and will set explicit boundaries early if it’s a problem for me, which allistic people don’t).

Y’all need to clearly and explicitly boundary set with socially disabled people instead of bitching behind our backs about what a pain we are and/or silently hoping we will somehow read your mind or your vibes. We won’t and your expectations are ableist.
