I did something embarassing today

Aster

Hello I'm new to the community :)

I did something embarassing today, I accidentally overstayed in the library. I forgot the library closing time isnt in 5pm like in the weekdays, it was actually 4pm. The library staff looked at me weirdly, when I realized too late what the closing time was. I was too embarassed and guilty to apologize to them when I rushed to leave exactly at 4pm. They may or may not have announced that they are closing the library soon before, but I admit I was at fault for not hearing their call because I was wearing earphones with loud music. I still feel embarassed about it, I curse my time blindness and obliviousness. I was wondering if any of ya'll do not mind please share some relatable stories about yourselves as an autistic individual, it would help me quell my embarassment as one. Thanks:)

  • I can almost guarantee you that the library staff would have been unbothered by this. They will understand that people lose track of time. I'm sure they would have just given you a quiet prompt if you hadn't realised yourself. 

    I feel like I embarrass myself quite often. Usually not realising what someone actually meant until after a conversation/someone else points it out and realising that my response therefore made absolutely zero sense.
