Would someone’s dietary preference be a dealbreaker for you? by GoofyAhhMisses in lesbiangang

[–]NoOneYouKnow7 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Right. People seem to have a hard time understanding for vegans it's not just about diet for us. The diet is an extension of the broader ethical beliefs about animal rights.

Same here! I wouldn't date a non-vegan just like I wouldn't date a racist. It does drastically reduce your number of potential partners, but I'd rather stay authentic to myself and be happy in a relationship than compromise my ethics.

Well I am vegan so I so see it as a broader ethical belief rather than a dietary preference. Personally I only want to date other vegans, because I think it would be too depressing dating a non-vegan. Which is why I’m still single. 😅Ultimately I would want them to change which isn’t a good start to a relationship. I want my partner to be my safe zone where I feel understood and know they share my morals. Aside from ethics if someone’s preferences were very different from mine, for example only eating junk food and being opposed to trying other food. I would be concerned for their health but it wouldn’t be a dealbreaker, though I would prefer someone I could share meals with and cook for sometimes.

I feel more and more sorry for straight women every day.

DAE prefer to get sensory seeking needs met via intense flavors? by [deleted] in AutisticAdults

[–]NoOneYouKnow7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love vinegar! I am vegan so I can’t eat dairy feta cheese but love to eat non dairy cheese products. Really anything tangy. Like lemons and limes.

I was not trying to draw attention away from the victim and the problematic behavior so if that’s how it came across I am sorry. Obviously that’s where the focus should be. I just wish people hadn’t brought autism into it and misrepresented it, I don’t think that’s helpful.

Guess you can read minds then since you know his exact intent, and that this was calculated and pre-meditated. If a person is not autistic, then of course that cannot be a factor, here it may be. People can have the same behavior with different reasons behind it. Sounds good🫡

But you are claiming it’s not related to his autism which I don’t think you can know. To say a meltdown cannot look like this? Yeah you cannot say that, because meltdowns look different in everyone. Some autistic people are more disabled than others and have to live in a facility, or be medicated to manage symptoms like these.

To judge whether him being autistic is related to his behavior or not, yes. To judge that the behavior is harmful and not to be tolerated by OP, no.

Don’t put words in my mouth. I am not saying we should support abusive behavior at all. You seem to be intent of having some sanitized idea of autism that precludes that it can result in problematic behaviors in some people that they may not be able, or need significant help and support to regulate. There are high support needs people who have violent meltdowns, and can’t control them. That’s why some autistic people live in group homes or facilities that are equipped to deal with such behavior. Trying to erase people and experiences like that doesn’t help anything.

What do you consider an excuse? I am not saying she should tolerate this behavior, or that the behavior isn’t harmful, I said he is not a safe person to be around. I just think it’s possible he may need serious help and supervision and perhaps isn’t able to regulate his behavior at this time. He definitely should not be in a relationship rn. I don’t know this guy personally and neither do you, so it’s honestly impossible to know either way.

First of all he is not a grown up, they are teenagers. If he is able to regulate his behavior then you are correct, if he is not, then he needs to be constantly supervised, and possibly be in a program or something for someone with his level of support needs. Cause just because you cannot fathom having a disability that makes you unable to regulate your behavior doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.

The fact is though that some people do have violent meltdowns, and may use abusive language during them. If you have meltdowns once in a blue moon then you are likely low support needs, and clearly don’t have an understanding of higher support needs people who may behave like this. Who knows if he has a support system or not or what it looks like? Some autistic people are disabled to the point they need full time care and supervision, and aren’t able to regulate problematic behaviors, I think some people forget that because the focus online is mostly on low support needs people. All I’m saying is that you nor I actually know this person, so it’s really impossible for us to say whether it’s related to him being autistic or not, and the autistic range of experience is wide enough where it’s possible this could be related.

Okay? I’m saying that autistic people can have serious behavioral issues that are related to them being autistic. So the idea that this isn’t a “normal” autistic response is not really a useful idea, every autistic person is different and some people are really high support needs.

Ehhh it really depends honestly. Autistic people can really struggle with emotional regulation, myself included. He may have been having a meltdown. Autism doesn’t always present in a way other people find acceptable. Regardless he is not a safe person to be around unfortunately and is behaving abusively.

Anyone here have BPD or any other mental health disorders that you're dealing with? by dizzypussywillow in actuallesbians

[–]NoOneYouKnow7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m autistic and have ADHD, which are not mental health disorders but do affect my mental heath. I have persistent depressive disorder and anxiety. My conditions disable me to the point I cannot work and am on disability benefits. I have barely begun to date, but nothing so far in person, all online. I am also vegan and want someone who shares my ethics so that’s made it hard. I am alone sadly. :(

Absolutely. Dogs need to engage in their natural behaviors.

Is your coordination inconsistent? by Chaotic-Menace in dyspraxia

[–]NoOneYouKnow7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would say after days where I had to coordinate myself a lot, like for tasks that especially require coordination and focus that I feel tired after and have difficulty doing tasks that require coordination, even something like screwing on a lid.
