I'm tired of hearing crap that it's my fault.
Are you actually being told it's your
fault by
everyone?
Fault is usually used in a negative way. And even if it's not, it's always always interpreted that way.
But if it's reframed to "your life situation is due to your nature", and used as the valid reason for e.g. getting financial support, the
meaning is functionally the same, but it doesn't have the negative connotation.
Which leads to a very common problem with complaints about the details of one's personal life situation.
Society works differently for M and F here (which is quite funny in the 21st century, since there a large minority that builds their entire world-view on such things being impossible /lol).
Complaining / Trauma dumping to
guys carries the assumption that you
want help. 80+ percent of guys will see it as a problem to solve. This is where you are now .....
.... but
you didn't follow protocol, and now you're not happy with the outcome.
There's a way to talk about things that
can't be changed, and a different way to talk about things that
can be changed.
The case with women is different. They have the opposite expectation: they assume the intention is to talk about something, and that the speaker is looking for "
support". 80+ percent of women will see complaining / trauma dumping as a request for a supportive discussion.
Again there are protocols, but the rules are reversed: they'll get support unless they positively indicate they want a solution.
This is a well-known issue with M/F communication. And probably the best known counter-argument to the claim that women have more EQ than men /lol.
Of course now I've said you're to blame for a new thing
But I've told often enough that you should:
(a) Quit using trauma dumping as a primary topic of conversation
(b) Work on your communication skills. You can definitely (100%) improve these, with a fairly good "return on time/effort" early on. It will help with (a) almost immediately.
You are certainly
capable of doing these things. You
should do them.
Anyway, don't blame
me for applying the "guy-centric" problem-solving approach to what you posted. I am what I am. I almost never do support, and if a women looks to me for it, I tell them so, with an abbreviated version of what I said above to set the context.
FWIW this has never had a socially negative effect, and has often had a (small-scale) positive outcome.
PS
Guys looking for support from other guys, and not getting it, is also a common thing. There are a
lot of these gender-related communication biases, and both M and F can display any of them - neither side of the [X% / 100-X%] split is ever close to 100 or 0.
I described this one as I did because it's one of the most entertaining: it's
very well known, but issues arise from it very frequently.
In a perfect world, stuff like this would be taught in schools. And if communication skills of that kind were
taught, life would be easier for many ASDs.
