Why do many autistics have a hard time getting along or bonding with people?

I think it’s because we grow up watching characters in movies, books and TV and they are very static and see-through for us as the viewer. We then think that people in real life are going to be easy to figure out in the same way and simple. But people are incredibly unique and therefore in a sense unpredictable to our minds.

I think that’s why it’s so jarring for us and difficult to really bond with people.
