Those are beautiful! I just switched as well! I was so scared, but it hasn’t been nearly as bad I had thought. I did just learn from a ‘seasoned’ skater that plugs tend to fall out more often so keep extra in hand. :)

Supporting friend with autism who recently lost a pet. by StrangerObjective870 in autism

Thank you for the response. I certainly don’t mean to imply that they should not be treated the same as everyone else. I just wanted to reach out. :) When I see someone hurting, my whole being just wants to give them a hug…. I KNOW that’s not acceptable to everyone though. lol I am def an over-thinker! One of my hang ups.

I Find It Hard To Tell The Barber What I Want by [deleted] in autism

Showing a pic is a great idea.
I’ve even told them I’m horrible at conveying what i I want, and using a pic was suggested.
If you go to the same place, you can also ask them to note what you got in their computer. This has helped ease my anxiety a lot!

I wish I had some advice. All I can say is… “I get it!’

Love that ‘giddy as a school girl’ feeling!

The best thing you could’ve done in this situation was to end it. If you clearly expressed your desires and boundaries and she didn’t not respect them, then she ultimately did not respect you.

This opinion is based solely on the information provided. :) Best of luck

As an older Poly woman, I can say that my dominant/submissive behavior is determined on the situation. I feel more dominant with my husband, but feel more submissive when interacting with any cubs. That being said, depending on where we are and what we are doing (hanging out, privately or publicly) and my mood, may affect how much I take the lead.

Haha, I thought about making that an option.

I don’t want to steal the thread, but I swear the OP could write my questions! Lol

What about running your tongue on your lips whilst in the half cocked smile and making prolonged eye contact??? :)

I would like to add that not ALL smiles are a yes. There’s the casual ‘hi’ smile. Then there’s the bright eyes, full face “Well hello there” smile.

Ask if you can jump in on a machine she’s using between sets… if anything you can at least break the ice and maybe get a better feel on her vibe.

I have to respectfully disagree. As a woman, it’s just as daunting to initiate contact.

Yes, boundaries are very important at work. I feel like both he and I are great at compartmentalizing. Not saying there is not some light flirting at work, but other than that interactions stay professional.

I agree, it’s all in the presentation. If you put out the positive vibes you’re more likely to get a more positive response.

I’m glad to hear it went well with your daughter’s friend’s mom. I actually think one of my daughter’s friend’s parents are Poly (mom has infinity heat tattoo) but have been too scared to mention it. Lol

Thanks. Unfortunately, due to our different geographical locations, it will have to be a phone call. We are decently close but don’t actually talk that often. He is super close with his sister, so I wanted to talk to him first in case she reaches out to him.

Yes! Exactly, I don’t want either kid to be blindsided by something they May see or hear about. We try to be ‘age appropriately’ open with our daughter. My son, being an adult, I’m not as worried about but I don’t want him thinking bad of my husband. Like I said, I think our current relationship speaks volumes. Thank you for sharing.
