why me?
6 Answers
What can I do? I'm half way through a graphics course miserable because of the other students.
They hardly talk to me, barely acknowledge that i'm there in the first place and basically just ignore me, but why i think i'm a nice person, i dont bully anyone or ever have.
they only talk, if they're taking the p**s or if they're asking for something, they just wont talk to me normally.
It did happen before, and i felt like suicide, but that was in my last year at school, i have another year to put up with this!
What can i do to be more 'friendler' and to get them to talk to me, rather than ignore me?
After all it's not my fault, i was born autistic.

You may be one of the lucky ones. While you are not the centre of an adulating (and possibly shallow) crowd you have your own close circle of friends, a very small one. Maybe you look inwards rather than guffaw outwards loudly in the pub with the in-crowd. These are strengths, do not be ashamed to be a loner.
There is an axiom in life that you can count your really close friends on the fingers of one hand and still have a couple to spare.

also just to add, if these people are just rude people then its not worth your effort trying to change who you are to suit them.
most of these people you will rarely(if that) see again once you have finished college, dont quit the course, just be you, people who are genuinely nice will not be mean to you or ignore you.
If you are autistic you already have difficulties with social scenarios, why bend over backwards for these people, just be you and do what you feel is comfortable for you.
whiffey is right in a lot of ways as well, dont let societies expectations make you have to change who you are to try to fit in, you will only be more miserable trying to maintain a persona that isnt natural. you are not alone, find friends that are on your level, ignore the loudmouths.
