Re: Fandom vents, anyone?

[(Anonymous)]

Not sure if anyone else's been through this, particularly neurodivergent people, but I have always been "the quiet anonymous" in fandom and I enjoy that because people often misunderstand me so it's better like that. I have no energy for silly arguments. I love debate until we reach the point of "agreeing to disagree" and realizing why our opinions are divergent, but most tend to get very heated.

This makes me unhappy both because my opinion will never be the prevalent one, so it's easier to get ratio'ed but also because I can't make a career in fandom if I can't socialize well so it's the same as everywhere else. Even if indeed I am knowledgeable about it, it's not worth a lot unless I know how to communicate and I don't know.

This feels more annoying than usual today because this "popular" girl in my fandom who is often at con panels is being VERY annoying about a product and I tried to stand up against her but was quickly reminded that, no matter what I say, or how much more knowledgeable I am, she will always be more influential.

I don't have many words tonight but just know I definitely feel this.

As a fellow ND, I always feel like I did a big Wrong when I say (write) a thing and someone tells me I'm wrong.

And then I get super pissed off when I look back and realize it was a half thought and if I connect the two things I was talking about to connect to the point I was trying to make, I feel like I will be perceived as wanting to argue/display my know-it-all attitude by back tracking and refusing to be wrong. So I just stop engaging.

I also have a weird paranoia (fully aware of where it's rooted from) that people only talk with me to steal thoughts and ideas from me and claim it as their own.
So I often feel like my peace is protected by being a random comment anon.

Sorry about that, anon. Yeah I know how it feels but I refuse to be quiet, so I double down and pick fights and come across as argumentative etc. It’s funnier because actual friends who get me don’t think that - it’s just others I struggle to communicate with, who choose to read my words in the worst possible way. Eventually I gave up trying.

Yes I know how it feels too. In a way sometimes I am even glad they stole from me because I would never be able to make something I like or do or am invested in “popular” because my personality is “troublesome”
