Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Other than money, what's something you would want an unlimited amount of?
1·4 days agoNuclear weapons. I’m in charge now and I’m here to right the ship.
I most definitely did not imply that because I’d never say that direct communication doesn’t or can’t end relationships and I’d push back on anyone suggesting that. I also already stated quite clearly that there is a time and place for every style of communication. So you’ve managed to demonstrate my prior point about indirect communication, then managed to restate what I already said, all the while convinced we’re in disagreement based on something I did not say, despite the fact that everything I actually did say is in agreeance with what you said.
I am so tired.
My second most despised neurotypical behavior is when people put words in my mouth and then accost me for things I never said
Considering that miscommunication and misunderstanding are a common occurrence for practically everyone I would have to disagree. I’ve seen it end plenty of friendships over the years. In pretty much every case, if either party was willing to just speak clearly and directly it could have been resolved easily.
I can only speak for the US, but it really seems like we don’t have that shared, intuitive language anymore. People are so different due to myriad of reasons to a point that it disrupts that intuitive communication. I know this is true because if I travel to a country with a more cohesive intuitive language, like India for example, it’s actually a lot easier for me to understand that indirect communication because it’s more consistent between people.
Listen Im neurodivergent I’m not mentally defective, you don’t need to explain the benefits of indirect communication to me. Rather I think some neurotypicals need the benefits of direct communication explained to them.
There’s a time and a place for everything. I’m not saying we should all talk like robots all the time. I’m saying NTs lean too heavily on one style and get pissy when people can’t read their mind.
NTs are allergic to direct communication, often obscuring their wants/needs/feelings for no good reason.

I think this obviously implies that your brain is getting reset each loop, in which case you wouldn’t be aware of anything repeating.
