Is It Time for Me to Start Talking?

The individual on the spectrum often says, you know, i want this person be good and ok, but i don't know what i'm supposed to do. You know? Should i get this person a glass of water? Should i give them a hug? Should i read them a book? I just feel lost to navigating what this particular person needs in this particular context. That is the difficulty. It's not that i don'twant to do something socially appropriate, but i just fall apart in this real life, complex, changeable situation. Let's take another example that doesn't have to do with social behaviors and connections. Let's consider managing finances. Am handling unexpected financial issues.
