How come only weirdos want to be my friend? Is it because I have ADHD? (lemmings.world)

I’m a girl with ADHD, depression, and anger issues. I like to consider myself pretty fashionable and good at sports, but my only friends are weirdos?

This one girl I’m friends with has a really bad stutter and autism, for example, and I think it’s weird. She also doesn’t like sports like I do.

You sound absolutely miserable to be around. "Normal" people don't tend to enjoy being referred to as weirdos if they think they are your friend.

Reading the post and your comments I am gonna guess it has more to do with how you talk down to people.

I was feeling miserable at the time, that’s for sure. Also, that makes complete sense, I think I get it
