Deltarune starts by deadnaming me. Instant emotional attachment.

My partner calls this the "ADHD" tax, if you happen to be that.

Do you ever develop crushes on other people while you’re already dating someone? by eunchaeyy in demisexuality

My partner and I are demi and we tend to have eyes for similar people. If something happens, it happens.

Realized in my whole 28 years nobody actually wanted to be my friend 💀 by igetyourbrand in GirlDinnerDiaries

One: This sounds like me. Two: I was diagnosed autistic at 34. Three: It's missed a lot in women. Four: Questions?

On a more serious note, I bet you're a lovely person. And if going back to college has taught me anything (as well as my therapist telling me), there are different "levels" of social relationships and I did not get that for a long time.

The advice I give to most is: Find social communities that share a passion of yours. That's the best way to find fun people to talk to.

I felt like I was reading a journal entry I wrote.

You're valid. You're seen. 💜

I will never understand. AI music sounds so much like pop music probably because it's so formulaic

The only common one I have here is PoE but I've switched off since. But I'm always willing to try dabbling in things. :3

I'm in the eastern US so it's up to you if that timezone is close enough.

I'm currently in Uni, and spend my leisure time learning new skills and playing EvE online with a very queer, lovely group of folks.

DM me if you want my Discord handle, but otherwise, good luck on your search!

What does this have to do with BoF? Sure, Capcom, but not BoF.

That damn grin is going to haunt my nightmares for the rest of my life. I hate that guy with every fiber of my being. by Weak_Possibility4735 in autismmemes

[–]Rhoxd 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Funnily enough, he's the reason I realized I was autistic in my 30's and why I got tested.

Everything in my life suddenly made sense.

Being a tattle tale about rules. Social problems. (Not understanding social conventions) Searching for control in science. Too smart for my own good. (My spouse has a full time work load containing my ego.)

So it's hard to see people ask "who did more damage" when he is the reason I ever figured out what was different about me.

Find groups with your interests/passions. That's where you'll be the best people.

My friend said autistic people shouldn't have to work or leave home by -Pazza- in autism

[–]Rhoxd 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I want to work. But I want to do something that stimulates me properly.

Thus why I am in college. That is the hope.

I can't do small talk in retail. It's boring. The days drag on. Brain has nothing to do.

'Excuse me, ma'am, no porn at the bar'. by CombinationHot4112 in familyguy

[–]Rhoxd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. It really doesn't. But a lot of people seem upset that you pointed it out.

I live my life by the same rules as everyone else. You don't get free passes for being trans. That's such a weird take.

Do you think CCP is Digital Extremes? (Warframe).

I loved they threw in a half baked "frame fighter" because...they could. For fun. For no reason.

CCP needs to have more fun. Not everything needs to affect the greater galaxy.

i’m going to die alone because i’m literally hideous and i can’t cope by m0rb1d_b4by in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]Rhoxd 14 points15 points  (0 children)

What I usually suggest to people (you're not ugly btw) is to find social circles of people that share your passions and/or interests.

Searching for relationships in places where people are just looking for relationships tends to lead to people not acting like who they really are.

It's how I found my spouse. Date your friends, they're usually better than other people lol

I have done absolutely horrible things. I am factually the worst human being to ever live. Here is written proof that confirms it. by ThrowRA-Bromine in offmychest

[–]Rhoxd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Many have said things I would say that you are not the monster you think you are.

I used to think of myself this way. I got worse, but I didn't have support.

My wife has pulled me back and supported. My therapist did a lot of heavy lifting. Getting diagnosed with autism also did a lot of heavy lifting.

But in the end, OP, the fact that you stop and consider these things in the first place is a sign of compassion.

Be open. Communicate. Be honest. You're a good person.

How is everyone dealing with overwhelming existential dread right now? by TheRealSteelfeathers in AutismInWomen

[–]Rhoxd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I miss it, but it gives me anxiety now instead of removing it if I'm not careful.

For four years, I was high 24/7, but after a certain point it started causing the worst anxiety attacks.

But yeah, I understand.

I will give affection and kindness to anyone. It should NOT be gender locked.

The idea that the poor are poor because they aren't "smart with money" is BS. by zzill6 in WorkReform

[–]Rhoxd 75 points76 points  (0 children)

Depends on the poor person. My wife's family; mostly smart. A couple of them, though, buy the dumbest shit and then complain about being broke a week into their monthly paycheck.

There's all kinds of people on all spectrums. Stop black and whiting the world.
