[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I don't think you guys are getting it. The photos I post are not a big deal. They are like candid photos where she is making a weird face or something. They might be mildly embarrassing but nothing to get worked up about. I actually had one of her that was genuinely really unflattering and showed it to her. She even got mad about that and I didn't even post the photo, I just texted it to her.

I guess what you are saying is that she is not really my friend. I don't know, maybe you are right. We have lots in friends in common though, so we see each other a lot. I just don't see why I should have to walk on eggshells around her or change my whole sense of humor because she is so sensitive.[/quote]

In all seriousness, OP, are you on the spectrum?  That is the most generous explanation I can come up with for your attitude and behavior.[/quote]

You’re being too generous to OP, who is a bully and an a-hole. You’re being offensive to people with ASD. She’s not being socially unaware. She knows the other person doesn’t like it and wants her to stop, yet she’s continuing because she knows that person wants her to stop.

Bullies do that. They say mean things then claim they’re joking and blame the other person for being too sensitive or not having a sense of humor. Bullies may have issues with mental illness or learning disorders, but what OP is describing doesn’t sound like ASD. Sounds more like low self esteem, tearing someone else down to build herself up.
