How do I stop making things worse by not being able to read social cues? I keep asking for clarification when people speak, and it makes them angry with me. But when I misinterpret them, they get upset. It keeps causing people to be upset with me because I can't tell how they feel without asking. They even know I'm Autistic and I've told them why I have to ask them for clarification. How can I fix this? I feel lonely.

One suggestion is to surround yourself with people who not only accept autism but understand it at a fundamental level. Ask them to be clear with their tone, their feelings, etc. You don't have to be good at social cues, you just need friends who are willing to accommodate your disability. Therapy with someone who specializes in Asperger's can also provide ways of dealing with the understanding of the "social language".
