It’s a sensitive situation when someone’s personal trauma and other issues affect how they perceive things.

But some people use their issues as an excuse to be unkind.

Keep reading to see the line the person in this story this person felt his brother’s girlfriend crossed.

My brother’s girlfriend Julia blew up at me.

My brother’s girlfriend Julia told me that I was “an allistic liar.”

She said I’d ruined her dish because it was in our fridge instead of in the oven, where she had put it when they were visiting me and my parents for dinner.

Julia is autistic and believes allistics, people without autism, are self-centered, rude and egotistical.

Things escalated quickly.

She demanded to know why I didn’t tell her “the truth” about where I’d put her dish, which I tried to tell her that I had, but she refused to believe me.

My brother tried to salvage the situation and calm her down, but she took her dish and left with him.

And it doesn’t look like they’ll cool down any time soon.

I didn’t accept her non-apology she sent via text and my parents are very upset with her.

So now my brother is texting me and telling me that I am not appreciating Julia’s experience and her trauma. AITA?

Check out what people are saying.

This. I find it a bit offensive that her autism is the theme of this story, as if autism and unkindness are inherently linked. But they are aren’t.

I’m not sure this would reduce the tension…

I was glad to see an autistic person sharing their views on this.

I wonder if his brother is dramatic, too.

Probably. This could actually be dangerous if she crosses the wrong person.

What a stressful situation.
