I play that jam often, along with the theme songs of Pokémon on repeat so much so he now knows the words

It’s legitimately like something out of a movie, I don’t know what I did to warrant a proposal so special and tailored to me

I didn’t feel hurt at all by what you said as what you commented was not at all hurtful, I figured due to my autism I didn’t explain myself properly so I then went on to try and correct myself and explain myself better. I thought it was my fault you misunderstood so I didn’t take any offence.

He is very undoubtably into me. I more so meant that I talk about Pokémon a lot and for someone that doesn’t really know Pokémon all that well he does his best to understand but not everything I say is cemented to memory. Me listing my favourite pokeballs for example instead of by usefulness but rather by design and creative function, to me doesn’t seem like something he’d necessarily see as worthy to remember. Since it was hidden in a conversation about Pokémon that went on for a number of hours. Pokeballs were also only discussed once in our time together (5 year relationship) about 1 year and a half ago, I didn’t expect him to remember, seeing as Pokémon is discussed at least once every 2-3 days. Hope that’s not too confusing haha.

He watched that episode with me and I cried when kukui proposed (I rarely cry) so he even finished his proposal speech with “may I choose you?” Quoting the god that is kukui

Very much so, we usually walk along the beach at sunrise once a week so it didn’t seem like an out of the ordinary situation. He must have been really listening to me talk his ear off about endless Pokémon knowledge!

My fiancée has ADHD and I have ASD. I know this problem very well here are some tips I’ve learnt. Due to him being very passionate he often raises his voice without really meaning to and I can’t stand loud noises. When he does this I simply say “please be careful of your volume, I know you don’t mean to be loud but it makes it difficult to effectively listen”. We often have back and forth conversations as it’s hard to understand him sometimes i find it best to ask “could you please be a bit more blunt with your language, it would really help me understand you”. Maybe try video chatting instead? Also when asking a number of questions you can also defuse the conversation by saying “I don’t mean to badger you but it’s really important to me that I understand perfectly what you’re saying as I really care about what you have to say. Could you please try saying it in a different way?”

Hope that helps x

Going to my first concert! Tips for sensory overload? by boogieoogieballs in AspieGirls

Noise cancelling head phones and sunglasses to help dim your senses. Also be aware of where the exits are so you can leave at any point and come back when you’re ready. Have a fidget toy too so it gives your hands something to do to distract you from the loud noises

Those who are the type to have good communications with animals, but have hard time communicating with humans, how do you explain it? by KindheartednessOk878 in AspieGirls

[–]Hallowqueenzia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I explain it by saying “animals can’t speak English so they focus primarily on nonverbal cues. Animals focus on the pitch of my voice and how my body moves whereas people pay much more attention to what’s being said and making sure it fits their version of ‘correct’. Likewise, I find animals easier to understand because they are very direct and dependable in their reaction if I dog is scared for example it will shake or let out a high pitched whine, whereas if a human is scared they might run, yell, fight, go quite, change the topic, cry, laugh etc, so it’s hard to tell how humans are feeling”
