[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Usually if they have the social cluelessness to ask for something inappropriate, you mustn't feel bad saying no, and ignoring all of their emotions after that.

And keep in mind that autistic people often don't have a good sense of what's socially appropriate or not. My husband is the sort who asks. Usually he doesn't mind when people say no. He also doesn't understand that people might be uncomfortable at saying no, because in their shoes he wouldn't mind declining.

This is someone who is at ease socially (I am not) and who is nervous about this one thing. I am equally nervous but made sure I had a plan I could be ok with for this thing. [b]Their favor involves a lot of new anxiety for me[/b].[/quote]

Are you close enough to tell them that? [/quote]

No, and I think considering it's giving them, a non-anxious person, anxiety, it should feel embarrassing to ask someone they ultimately don't know well. I would never in a million years ask them this.[/quote]

Why are they asking you? Do they not know any other people on the planet?[/quote]
