I always have food and snacks because I can’t have big meals & love trying new things. I always offer some to others if im around them bc i feel a bit rude not to. I am also autistic and not great at knowing what the actual social expectations are with things like this & have issues taking things very literally like “share” is equal to me at max and that “a couple” is 2 pieces ect so I don’t know if im being unreasonable being upset about this or what’s considered normal.
There is one friend who when i do this always takes most of whatever i have and it’s starting to make me really uncomfortable because they never offer to share their things but it feels like it’s become an expectation for me to do so. We went to the movies the other day and she didn’t get any popcorn bc she didn’t want any but she kept looking at mine & when i offered her some of mine she ended up eating the majority of the box.
Another example is we were at my house and i was having beef jerky and offered her a few pieces to try bc she hadn’t had the spicy kind before and when i put the packet down she picked it up and finished it off.
Problem is though she has had an eating disorder in the past so i don’t want to say to her she’s had too much or is overdoing it, but it’s at the point where if i have anything it’s expected she can too. Im not sure how to handle it or if the issue is just that im the one being unrealistic about what sharing is meant to be. Thanks in advance!
