Why does it feel like my possibly autistic friends are Better at socializing than me?

So. I have two friends who suspect that they’re on the spectrum. But the thing is I don’t understand how they have such a better insight in social situations than me. It feels like anytime I bring up a social setting they have some explanation or understanding of what happened that I don’t. My best friend has two other friends also that they really connected with and I couldn’t connect cause I always felt left out and was sometimes intentionally left out. But like. I don’t understand how they can have such good masking skills and better understanding of social situations than me.

I guess I’m wonder. Am I just really bad at masking or learning social situations or do they just have better logic and better masking skills?

I got diagnosed with autism recently, my psychiatrist said I mostly struggle with social situations. But I don’t get why I haven’t gotten better at understanding social settings the way my friends have. It just feels like something is wrong with me.
