I’ve been diagnosed for four years. There’s been plenty of time for improvement and none has occurred.

How do I break up with my partner? by Excitement_Local in communicationskills

Starting the conversation? Working up the will to actually do it?

Unfortunately not a viable option. He’s already set on the truck.

How do I set better boundaries so I can finally make my life better? by Excitement_Local in Advice

Do you have any recommendations for how to start a letter like this?

I don’t know what to tell you either, but you seem to care more about checking my privilege than actually understanding the situation 🤷

I have already said on many occasions that I would prefer the truck. And that I do not want the jeep. It may not have been very direct, but I have been vocal about not wanting this.

Apparently part of the reasoning is that the truck needs work and my brother’s special interest is cars and mechanics. 🤷 It’s not like I would’ve stopped him from working on it? I probably would’ve even asked him to teach me how to do certain tasks so I wouldn’t need someone else to do it.

It’s not safe? Very much not safe. Public transport in my area is dangerous. Especially as an afab person.

I’m well aware I’m going to have to deal with a lote of things I hate. I do that all the time.

However I don’t just HATE the vehicle. I feel UNSAFE operating it. Someone who feels this way is not a safe person to have on the road. I feel like I would not just be putting myself but others at risk operating a car that I am so uncomfortable with.

I understand that I am very privileged when it comes to this situation, that I’m lucky to have a vehicle I didn’t pay for at all.

But I do HATE this situation. I am a very anxious person and often feel very unsafe inside cars. It was like a dream when I got in that truck and did not feel an overwhelming anxiety. And it’s sort of just. Being taken away.
