I learned asl in high school just so I could pretend to be deaf and sign to my friend so I didn't have to talk to people
That's quite the effort. Is there a reason why you didn't want to talk to people in high school?
Because people in my high school were so stupid and innocent.
Pretending to be handicapped and disrespectful to people who actually are. It minimizes their struggles. If people found out you were faking, they might judge you badly for it.
I agree but I just wanted to goof around.
It's good you acknowledge the error in your ways, but you still learned a new skill despite your wrong intentions. I hope you can use ASL for good, why not try volunteering to the deaf, maybe you'll make a lot of good friends and memories.
