If I was not disabled, would you still talk to me?

Hello. Today's episode is about if I wasn't disabled, would you really talk to me and sit and have a conversation with me? Or would you be my friend? Because it seems like people tend to not talk to me because because I am disabled and they're intimidated at the fact that I cannot walk. Or maybe they don't know that I can speak. Or maybe they just don't want to bother with me because they think I smell bad or they think I look weird

You can be honest

Yeah, this is a good question because I have seen people be friends with disabled people or with minorities to get those sort of brownie points. But I think the answer, of course, is no, you shouldn't change yourself to appease other people or to have friends. I don't think anyone should, I think, unless you're like a bad person. But I think that the right people will be friends with you for the right reasons

And I am a genuine person, and I could be the nicest person you'll ever meet, but on the other hand, I could be the worst person you've ever met. So people have to really earn my trust and being able to handle my personality as is, which, in all fairness, can be kind of difficult. But at the same time, I'm honest and I am caring at the same time. So, yeah. Thanks for the feedback. I hope to hear from you
