(solved).

Hello I've been panicking for the last 20 minutes because I saw a tiktok post stating that its rude and disrespectful to tap someone on the shoulder to get their attention. Now I feel horrible and stupid. I didn't know it's rude to tap someone on their shoulder. I did this once to tell a girl her food order was ready and on the counter because she wasn't paying attention, but she seemed a little upset and didn't say a word. Honestly, she seemed upset before, though. I'm sure I've tapped other people on the shoulder without knowing it, but I really didn't know this was bad and rude. There are so many social rules that everyone is expected to know, but I don't. I also don't "look" like I could be disabled but I am and was diagnosed with ASD some years ago.

I also never hit anyone hard. it's usually a soft tap. I'm a soft-spoken person, and a lot of the time, people can't hear me, so I figured it's easiest this way. what do you all think? Am I overthinking it? Does it depend? I feel very horrible.

I'm going to my first ever concert and it's to see laufey in Taipei!! I'm studying abroad here, so I decided to attend before I head home. I'm super excited! I've never been to a concert before and honestly have no idea what to expect. I hope I won't be too anxious on my own.
