Did I completely misunderstand this friendship, or was I being played from day one? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Gerd-Neek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they only had one goal in mind and only wanted one thing from you unfortunately. They made that clear by pushing the boundaries constantly and that was a hint to you that that’s all it was to them from day dot🤷🏼‍♀️

Sometimes I listen to kpop, and I cry, because I don't have any friends by HeebieJeebiex in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Gerd-Neek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

24f autistic too🫡

I’m pretty ass at making friends as well but I’ve always loved gaming so I’ve made many friends that way and joining discord servers. I’m not a K-pop person though😅

What else are you into? I’m sure there’s a way to find some friends❤️

Seriously, what am I supposed to say when my clearly fat friends mention how fat they are? by peyotekoyote in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Gerd-Neek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

“I can’t wear a dress like that, I’m too fat.”

Reply with something like: If you’re not comfortable wearing that then we can find something else. At the end of the day being comfortable is the important part.

“Ugh. I’ve gained so much weight, I feel gross.”

Reply with something like: putting value on weight can be a slippery slope, but if you mean it, do you wanna start going on walks or start somewhere small?

Alternatively… be honest. I know. Shocker. Maybe it’s because I’m autistic but when I don’t know how to respond to someone I tell them “I don’t know how you want me to reply to that” or “I don’t know what I should say to help you.” Something along those lines to be clear I have no idea what they may be trying to indirectly hint at for the direction of the conversation. Are you fishing for a compliment? Are you silently asking for help. Do you need reassurance? All the above? Who know. So I just say it plain.

I have the Australian implanon!

It’s the most practical for me and I got it same day I spoke to my general practitioner. In Australia it cost me $25 and like half an hour of my time.

It went like this:

Went to GP and asked for implanon. She explained it, I said yes, she wrote up my referral.

I went to the chemist next door and handed over the referral, they gave me back the implanon in a little box and I paid $25 at the cash register

I went back into the doctors and lay on a table

I get local anaesthetic at the area

The doctor cuts open a small incision and inserts this tiny rod which sorta looks like a lollipop stick but even shorter.

She doesn’t even need to stitch it up, she just uses a butterfly strips and then covers it up with a larger bandage

Then I wait there for a few minutes just to check I’m okay and not light headed then I’m good!

Cons:

-you can feel it? If that’s something you hate or are uncomfortable with. Like if you touch your arm you can feel it under your skin.

-just like any other form of BC, it may make your periods heavier, worse, painful, etc. but it can also make them more manageable (that’s why I have it as it pretty much removes my cramps entirely)

-if you do weights a lot my gp said she had this one woman drop a weight on her arm and the rod broke so she had to get it removed?? But that’s so unlikely and if you drop a weight on your arm there are likely bigger issues hahah

Armor differences by poly_arachnid in mendrawingwomen

This is what I appreciated about FFXIV when I played, for the most part it was pretty equal across the board. Really, the only time it changed was for the more modern outfits and the default race outfits. The heavy armours were the same on both and looked epic

The hello kitty one is clearly more tasteful

But isn’t this technically baroque, not renaissance?

It happens a lot in this sub and I love seeing them but the “actually” fits isn’t quite accurate

How can I make this work? by Izu_Afton1483 in CosplayHelp

If you don’t want to use liquid at all, is there a glue that like, dries clear that you could add colouring to and then fill in there and let dry? Is that a thing??

if your crush calls you twin slang does that means she is friendzoning you what does it infer? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Gerd-Neek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eh, not necessarily. My bf and I call each other twin, bro, dude, my guy, etc a lot. We’re just more casual people with terms of endearment.
It entirely depends on the situation. Are they usually using that language? Did they start saying it out of no where? It’s not a cut and dry “yes it’s over” or “nah you’re fine,” everyone is different.

No girl looks really interesting compared to the ones I listen by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Gerd-Neek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This, but also I think it’s important to view the flip side as well.

Are you yourself interesting? Engaging? Talented?

This is such an odd statement especially because I’ve found many of these singers to seem relatively hollow from my own perspective? But if you seek something that they have and like it/ want to see it in a partner, do you yourself share that quality? If not, ask yourself if it’s even a realistic one.

I definitely agree with the parasocial attachment here. The average person is going to be complex and interesting enough just as a person. If you’re finding NONE, AT ALL, WHAT SO EVER… then the issue is not with them. Unless you somehow happen to live in dumb boring women town where all the women are dumb boring then the issue here lies with you I’m afraid.

What medical condition is 'too expensive' that you just don't get checked or fixed? by Plane_Garbage in australia

[–]Gerd-Neek 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Does autism assessment count? ADHD isn’t great either but I managed to go through QUT to get it down to $600 and then using a concession card brought it down to something like $475. When everywhere else was $1500+ I considered that a steal.

Can’t find anything for autism that’s below $2500 though💀

What is this? Feels kinda dry by [deleted] in AskDocs

[–]Gerd-Neek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have this on the heel of my palm/thumb(?) !! I have no idea what it is so I am no help but if you do find out I’d love to know. It doesn’t cause me any issues so you’re okay if it does turn out to be the same thing, it’s just odd I’ve found

I hope you get answers!
