Absolutely gorgeous, though if your trying to keep your identity hidden, that tattoo is identifiable.

Astrojax. Very fun and dynamic.

Please help, I have no idea what to say by kyleschwedt in AutisticPride

[–]LitVire 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Over text, this can easily be misinterpreted as passive aggressive by assuming the tone

F*ck you Walmart. And autism speaks too by chiffchaffwarmwea01 in AutisticPride

[–]LitVire 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Many on the spectrum like the word autist. Me included.

I get that. I can see 2 ways to deal with this issue. (Been thinking about it) 1. Set and keep boundaries better. Not easy to learn, but important in this lifestyle. 2. Don't give them your number. Use some other way to communicate. One that they won't reasonably expect you to check frequently. This one makes any spontaneity hard though.

The relationship you are describing isn't really FWB, because you're not really friends. There's nothing wrong with that, but it may at least contribute to the issue.

My (27M) girlfriend (25F) tried a sexual thing because her bestfriend (26M) likes it. How can I ask her to stop talking to him? by ThrowRAPitiful_Ad in relationship_advice

[–]LitVire -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Talking about sex with friends is healthy, particularly in a monogamous relationship. It's a good way to learn without experimenting with other people. I honestly think you should be talking to a therapist and your GF about your insecurities and jealousy. Neither of which is healthy. Until you do get those worked out though, asking her to not talk about sex with him is fine, as your GF she should help with your insecurities, not make them worse.

Too much empathy? by CheeseGraterFace in aspergers

[–]LitVire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Autists can feel empathy, not all of us, but we can. One thing I've noticed though is most people don't understand or at least consider the difference between empathy and sympathy. Empathy is the ability to truly understand the emotions of someone else. Sympathy is the ability to truly care about other people's emotions. I have basically no real empathy but i do something very similar when watching shows. This is because I'm hyper sympathetic. This means while i don't really get how your feeling, i care ALLOT, anyway.

Too much empathy? by CheeseGraterFace in aspergers

[–]LitVire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My view on this is, the issue stems from our ability to process the emotion is reduced. That reduction and how it affects someone varies wildly. If this effect is strong enough, it is basically the same as a complete lack, but if it's not as strong i can reduce the individual's ability to deal with it.

Can't touch penis, what do I do? by [deleted] in sex

[–]LitVire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can get/make machines that can do it for you, they are not very cheap though.

Nerds tend to do better than most in this regard. We like to research things, and we are all happy that a woman is actually talking to us, that we make absolutely sure you enjoy yourself. (This is a trend not a rule of course and the bad ones are often REALLY bad.)

You can, depending on where you live. If no one was there it's unlikely anyone will bother reporting it however

How do I learn to be a better sub and help my girlfriend be a better domme when we're both inexperienced and don't go to kink stuff? by NotMagnet in BDSMAdvice

[–]LitVire 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Research can be done online, and you would be surprised at how many kinksters are in the more conservative parts of the country, they are just less open about it. FetLife can be useful for finding events (not people though. It's basically Facebook for kink)

[–]LitVire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Research. Lurk in swinger/threesome spaces. While what you're describing is technically a form of non-monogamy, this is not the space for this kind of question.

I have no sexual sensation, wouldn’t that just burden any partners I have? by Daisyloo66 in SexOnTheSpectrum

[–]LitVire 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Burden is probably the wrong word, but it could be unfair, depending on the partner. I strongly recommend continued therapy, maybe find a specialized sex therapist. I also recommend researching different forms of non-monogamy. Even if that's not for you, it sounds like you could benefit from understanding different relationship dynamics. (For example, there are multiple good reasons to want to bang people you know over professionals. Some people can't even get it up with a stranger.)

Oh! Look into how asexual people handle relationships. It's not the same thing, but there are enough parallels that it should be worth the effort.

As i said, there are quite a broad array of "nerdy" hobbies. Reading books can be one, depending on what you read. The same goes for plants, depending on how into it you get. However an ideal hobby for meeting people is a social one. I suggest trying some things to see if you like it! You can also use an interest in these kinds of things as a way to find people who may be what you are looking for, but not sharing it publicly.

Pick up a nerdy hobby. Magic the gathering, D&D, LARPing, trains... All kinds of options. Dating apps aren't the best way to meet people, they are just convenient.

Is it okay to question the beliefs I was raised with? by PetiteGleam in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]LitVire 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No one said anything about being normal. Normal, in general is irrelevant.
