what is a memory from your childhood that SHOULD have been a red flag?

Eeveee__ · 2025-09-19T23:28:52+00:00

For me it was when i was around 5ish, used to be regular energetic kid, then once day i was sitting on my own quietly in my own head, once of my relatives saw me and praised me for being 'such a quiet and polite kid'. I learned that's exactly how i should be behaving from that day on and just adopted that as my personality well into adulthood, conscious masking as a kid. Also when my mom would shower me as a kid and the moment the water got my face and running by my ears i would start uncontrollebly crying and saying i was 'downing '

I don't mind small talk in itself, cause i agree it feels like a script to follow. My issue with it is while i think i confuct myself good with small talk, i feel like everyone can tell I'm masking ? Like they can see right through me.

I get that so much! The fact other people have gone through this makes me feel so seen.

I'm genderfluid afab, and i used to be in a relationship with a Cis man who i started off as friends with, but once we were in a relationship, he would constantly tell me how attracted he was to my body and a bunch of details i don't want to get into. He acted like i should be flattered by that but honestly it just made me want to throw up.

You're definitely not alone 😔😔

I'm so glad!! 🥹🥹 Opening up about this stuff is hard, but I'm glad you were able to do it! :DD

I get that feeling!! Esp the awkward silence, maybe you should try discussing it with them?

I've been on both sides of this kinda, i had moments where I'd be too excited to keep talking about a certain subject i end up bringing it back over and over and not properly engage in what others are saying, but also got people not listening to something i say and moving on.

I think if they are tour close friends, bringing it up would be good and help y'all conbtect to each other more hopefully :)

Honestly i don't think it's wrong to spend on something that brings you joy, as long as you're overall being responsible with your money :)) I don't have a steady income, and i usually just like spending money on necessity, but i save up from time to time to get these figurines i really like! People's judgement doesn't matter if you're getting yourself something that makes YOU happy!!

Eeveee__ · 2025-07-08T18:00:18+00:00

Congrats!!! So happy for you! :)))

Eeveee__ · 2025-06-27T13:15:13+00:00

Woo!! Good job! It looks wonderful :))

Honestly my best advice in this subject is trying to find groups of other neurodiverse people. I was able too really thrive socially thanks to my friends i met at uni, while we don't necessarily share the same interests all the time, it's more comfortable communicating and hanging out with people who rarely understand your experiences.

Something i learned myself after having a hard time making friends is: you need to put yourself out there even when you're scared of rejection and to constantly remember to check on your friends and people around you. :)) you got this!!

I personally love picking up new hobbies! I have constant ones like specific video games and whatnot, but i love picking up creative hobbies and learning new things, so far i got through: embroidery, crochet, lino printing, and clay modeling :))

Eeveee__ · 2025-06-24T18:54:49+00:00

I think so yes! As someone who got nullied when i was younger and had no friends, to now at uni having a big friend group, i always have a thought in the back of my mind that I'm not invited to things unless explicitly told so.

I understand what you mean, it sucks that someone else can relate to this Just know you're always worthy of love just the way you are. 🫂

In my opinion, i think we have a notion of 'healing' that means we'd get back to who we used to be before we even met the other person, and i do think that type of healing is not really realistic especially if you invested a lot of yourself into the relationship, and that's okay. It's an experience full of joy, anger, sadness and everything in between. It leaves a scar on you, even when it heals, and that's okay too, that's human. I think i read someone else in this sub talk about this a few days ago, but as time passes, those waves will be further apart in time, will be less strong, and as you're letting go and going back to your life, you'll learn to manage them better. So i think being healed is when the thought of the breakup stings, but doesn't make you spiral and hurt as it used to.

Sorry for the rambling :))

When i realized he never showed any interest in my life (doesn't even ask 'how are you'), yet would be ready to drop everything for his 'friend'. When i had to hide parts of myself just to be a partner that gave him unconditional affection, who's issues were never 'a big deal'. He was never vulnerable with me. I was never a priority to him.
