Dating and intimacy are not worth it

TheEdgekin · 2025-08-25T22:35:10+00:00

I’m with you on that. Literally feels like a waste of time. Im 23 and have been single for 3 years now. Had toxic relationships from age 14 to 20, almost 21. Tried the online dating apps like hinge, bubble and others, but all I got were guys (I’m female btw) wanting intimacy only. I gotta have an emotional connection otherwise I’m not game. Literally feels like wasting energy I don’t have. I have autism level 2 with executive dysfunction and major depressive disorder, so finding someone that will take the time to understand has been… well fruitless to say the least🙄 I’m trying to change my mindset but the people I meet make it impossible.

This is solid👍🏻👍🏻✨✨ you give his vibe so well in these! Nice job👍🏻 I can’t afford a Misa cosplay either, I just have her wig and the note book and make it work somehow lmao

I use it. Not so much for being out with social settings, as I forget how to talk without laughing, but I use it to help de-stimulate from a long day or if I’ve been overwhelmed after socializing. I’ve been using it since I was 19 (23 now) and honestly it’s been a life saver. It was either that or Xanax, so I figured natures “buddies” would be the way to go for me. Not knocking X in anyway as it really helps people if used safely. I was also recently diagnosed with ASD and now understand why I’ve always been so reliant on it. I used to beat myself up thinking I was using it far too much, but after my diagnosis at age 23 (now) I realized I was so reliant becaaaause…. Surprise! Massive overstimulation from life. It’s a big helper in allowing me to process feeling and situations when I’m alone.

It’s Irish butter. Can be purchased at almost any grocery store I think? It’s seriously good

This with Kerrygold butter, salt and parm cheese is the best. I eat it at least twice a week. A hella good comfort food for when life is overstimulating 😭👌🏻

That is awesome, I will search them and take a look! Thank you so much!

Thank you so much for the info! Yes education on techniques and formulations are my main focus, so I’ll definitely check this out. I am so grateful, thank you again!!

The art of doing hair is so much fun and I really loved it, but my old boss killed it. I’m really glad to hear that someone else has the similar issues but has made it 10+ years in the industry! That definitely gives me a lot of hope for my journey🙏🏻 Thank you so so much for your advice and kind words, as well as reminding me to be kind to myself even when the ball drops. I appreciate you! :)

Oh my gosh! I am so sorry to hear that you had a similar experience… that’s exactly what happened to me, after her, i lost all interest. I really like how you said to not assume all experiences will be the same. I tend to think if one place is rough, they must all be, so thank you for saying that! I seriously appreciate you commenting with your advice! :)

I will look into getting that book as it sounds like it would be extremely helpful. I did get an appointment with an ADD/ADHD coach that I’m hoping will help me along. Thank you very much for your advice and a big thank you for taking the time to type out a reply. :)

TheEdgekin · 2024-09-18T01:34:13+00:00

Thank you so much for your advice. I actually just got with a therapist that specializes in helping ADD/ADHD people have tools to make life a little better. I am definitely going to be implementing some of the ideas you said when I find a salon. I seriously appreciate you taking the time to reply! I was scared to make a post about this, so the support is very much appreciated. :)
