You are angry and impatient with him because he has not apologised to you for what he did to you. He has SAD so he finds
it difficult to even engage in non verbal communication. If it takes him one year just to pluck up the courage to apologise
to you for not talking to you then his SAD would seem to be quite extreme. It may be that discussing the thing in question
with you would make it worse for him. All you want is an apology. But if he cannot give you that there is not a lot you can
do about it. Non neurotypical people only have a limited number of spoons. This means their disorder prevents them from
functioning in the way that neurotypical people do and so for him to apologise would require that he has sufficient spoons
that he obviously does not have at this moment in time. Which might help you understand why he cannot apologise to you
right now. He probably needs those spoons for things that are far more important to him and you should try to respect this
