I've been going crazy about this 4 like a month now, looking for input from anyone
Background info b4 I get into the situation in question. So I have a mix cocktail of sensory issues, notably 4 this situation tho is noise. I can tolerate it 2 an extent but I i get mentally drained pretty quickly if I dont have something 2 turn down the sound around me
I don't like earplugs, they feel weird and I hate how loud my own voice sounds with them in. So I typically just use my earbuds. They got solid active noise cancelling and can adjust it if needed with the app. Most importantly: my friends know about this. They don't have issues with me wearing them when we go out cause they know y I do it
So a few weeks back, I get invited by my friends 2 this place (can't name-drop it here cause it's a local thing and would totally dox me). the place is focused on group activities. So a bunch of people I didn't know also got invited. My friends relayed the whole noise sensitivity thing to the rest just so they were aware.
Now 4 the actual situation. Get there, doing some stuff, everything seems fine. It's a little tough 4 me, the place is very loud so the earbuds 4 basically required 4 me 2 function. But cause it's also loud, it's a bit difficult 2 communicate as a whole. Like everyone had issues hearing each other at some point.
One girl, I'll call her V, just didn't seem the most friendly 2 me? We would occasionally do some activities together, and at the end of 1 of them we ended up losing. And she said 2 everyone that "we would've won if somebody wasn't choosing to ignore us" while looking right at me. She made it a point afterwards not 2 do anything when I was involved.
Again she knew my situation b4 going in so I feel like it was super rude. But I'm also thinking she had a point. Idk. I just wanna know if I should've done something different or not
