Past determining my future

I take it very hard when things don’t go well for me socially. It feels like getting punched in the face.

Remember, this is an autistic support website. Meaning you're "preaching to the choir".

Most if not all of us take social failures very hard. Often dwelling on them long after the fact as well.
 
I notice that women who work at restaurants and drive-thru’s tend to be very friendly. I just don’t know if that also indicates that they are interested in getting to know me.

Earlier today, I went to a Thai restaurant and one of the women working there was smiling and friendly towards me. She asked me some questions but I had a difficult time hearing her due to my own auditory processing not functioning properly and she had a strong Thai (I guess?) accent. I found her attractive but I didn’t know what to do. It’s going to eat at me now. :(
 
When a person works serving food, it's in their favor
to behave in a friendly, amiable way. Nobody really
wants to have their food handed over by somebody
who looks like they want to stab you, right?

Whether any of the employees you encounter want
to see you after work is something that would require
many visits to determine.
