Sometimes a NT will ask me something and I don't understand what they are asking or misinterpret it.
Then the opposite way around I will ask a question so I can make suitable adjustments personally if needed and it can be seen as criticism, because the reason for asking is not understood.
I am trying to work out if this is simply a communication problem I have or it is to do with the different way a NT brain works.
My GP told me that being autistic means I have a different operating system to my neurotypical colleagues. Because of that any information I wish to give to them, I have to change into a way that their operating system can read, and any information that they share with me, I have to turn that into a format my operating system can read.
I actually found her analogy to be quite helpful, hope it help you too
