    I feel like a pariah in my own town

    If you feel that your obsession in a new place will make you a pariah, you should be visiting a stable Doctor. ☹️

    Autistic Girlfriend, I am depressed

    If this is how she understands relationships, you have a hard row to hoe. You are both young - moving on is not cruel. If this is too taxing for you, perhaps you should consider backing up a bit and just having a friendship? If that is too painful, it is perfectly fine for you to gracefully...
