do any neurodivergence havers also have the issue of trying to balk for like a good few turns from a conversation where you tried to bring up a point or suggest an alternative to something but you misread the room and it turns into what I can only perceive as the other person taking what you thought was an off-hand idea that you have no real attachment to and turning it into their own personal mission to, I honestly can’t tell why so I’ll just say how it looks to me, submit to their way of thinking? Maybe they want to change my perspective? Maybe they want to win in the marketplace of ideas?
Anyways, then you’re like stuck in a dialogue loop where you keep saying “I literally have zero real attachment to this idea and I brought it up for the sake of conversation” and they scold me for deigning to bring the other idea up and we will not stop talking about this until I physically exit the room or grovel at their feet in tears begging for forgiveness for my dastardly nonsequitur? Or something else that I genuinely don’t understand? Am I missing something? It feels like a dominance routine from my perspective and it’s happened to me enough times that I think I’m just misunderstanding something?
I thought it was a neurosis I picked up from my conflict-avoidant behaviors but my sister is more confrontational than me and she also has this issue sometimes so I’m wondering if it’s an ADHD thing. Had a convo yesterday with a friend of mine that was like this and I genuinely felt like shit afterwards, it’s one of the instances where I genuinely don’t know how to amicably resolve it, I’m trying to be pliant and flexible here, please let me exit this conversation naturally I don’t want to make this an issue I am trying to communicate that please let me leave please please please
This has happened to me dozens of times and every time it feels like the realization of a nightmare. I’m so genuinely actually sorry for attempting to help you by wantonly-suggesting alternative perspectives to cover what I perceive to be unnoticed angles in what you are saying hoping that maybe it could be rolled into a consensus point that might be helpful, I didn’t think this was a venting/rhetorical discussion, If it was I missed those cues, it will not happen again to you now that I know you do not gel with it, I’m sorry, I’m Harrier DuBois the sorry cop, this is my sorry song, please dismiss me from this conversation so I don’t have to literally walk away, I don’t want to leave lingering resentment for something I genuinely thought was innocuous 
One time I was at a social function and was asked what my favorite make and model of truck was, and I said that if it has four wheels and can affordably get me where I need to go that’s all that mattered, and it didn’t have to be a truck to do that.
I was treated like an alien that just stepped out of the UFO for the rest of that event.
I like the Mudertruck F1000, personally. You can back out of your drive way and crush hordes of possums with that thing!
Can you name the truck with four wheel drive, smells like a steak and seats thirty-five…
Canyonero! Canyonero!
Well, it goes real slow with the hammer down, it’s the country-fried truck endorsed by a clown!
Canyonero! (Yah!) Canyonero!
The Federal Highway commission has ruled the Canyonero unsafe for highway or city driving.
Canyonero!
12 yards long, 2 lanes wide, 65 tons of American Pride!
Canyonero! Canyonero!
Top of the line in utility sports, unexplained fires are a matter for the courts!
Canyonero! Canyonero! (Yah!)
She blinds everybody with her super high beams, she’s a squirrel crushing, deer smacking, driving machine!
Canyonero!-oh woah, Canyonero! (Yah!)
The correct answer was “Anything big enough to pull a boat”
Suzuki Samurai it is!
I like the chevy silver-ado because the vortex engine is made with real tornadoes.
I get exposed to truck conversations a lot, I usually just bring up the disappearance of small trucks and try and get them thinking critically about why that is.
