Feeling a bit of a cow

[Privatelyliving]

I've was on a train platform. Short delay in trains. A young woman who clearly has some SN approached me and started chatting. I chatted back, she complimented me on something I was wearing, I'd did the same back, we talked about the train and how crowded it might be, the temperature, our onward journeys, she gave me rather too many personal details for her own safety TBH.

Anyway I humoured her, was perfectly polite and friendly, but when the train eventually came, I nipped into the next carriage so as not to have another 30 mins of it.

How awful am I?

Not awful at all.

Not awful at all. It’s a nicer way of saying ‘I’m done with this conversation!’

Not at all. A lot of people wouldn't have spoken at all. It doesn't hurt to chat for a bit
You're not a cow

This could be my cousin. She is autistic and gives way too much personal information...she doesn't understand social normals. She's very friendly.

I don't blame you, at least you were kind to her when she was speaking with you.

It would have made her day if it was my cousin, she'd be talking about the 'nice lady she met' for ages.

We encourage her to be as independent as she can, and to talk to people, it does her a lot of good.

Sounds like you were lovely tbh x

I would view it as inappropriate advances.

Don't be a cow then, become a horse.

You did fine, she would have come away from it feeling happy and positive.

You feel like a cow because as women we have been conditioned to place ourselves last, to put the needs of others before ours every time and to feel guilt if we ‘fail’ at this.

Don’t pander to it. You know rationally what you did was a nice thing.

Sorry but what does SN mean here?
