@JeremyMallin@actuallyautistic I might sound a bit nihilistic, but I learned early on that lying is expected and indeed required to function in the normies. And that everybody lies, no exceptions. Even us, sometimes. So I learned to lie and yes, it has smoothed over some bumps of living in the normieworld. Not saying it hasn't been stressful too, as it definitely is not natural to me either.
I usually don't lie outright, with CVs I polish them a bit, maybe put where my job actually was as my employer instead of the sl.. staffing company. I mostly lie by omission. I was a department head. True. The omission? The department had one person in it, me.
Of course, I have never lied in any official documentation, even by omission :blobcatcoffee:
