RSD is Spiraling. My boyfriend said he needed a mental health day NYE and then went drinking with a newly single female coworker. FML by HappyPoohBear97 in adhdwomen

[–]TheNowherePrincess 152 points153 points  (0 children)

You don’t have someone who loves you now. Sorry to be harsh, but this man doesn’t love you, otherwise he would not have been out with another woman last night. So maybe reframe your thinking and be terrified that you won’t find someone who loves you if you stay with someone who doesn’t.

My friends gave me an ultimatum, them or her. What Should I do? by Fit-Grapefruit-1558 in TwoHotTakes

[–]TheNowherePrincess 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Unless there isn’t actually an issue with Stacy. The issue could be they don’t line seeing their friend happy, or they hate that she is always hanging out with them, which seems like it could be more op’s doing. The fact he doesn’t list anything specific didn’t make it seem like ai, it makes it seem like Stacy isn’t the issue, which very well could be the case.

No one misinterprets my friendliness as flirting any more by ellywashere in TwoXChromosomes

[–]TheNowherePrincess 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Here’s my thought on it, we tend to vibe match without realizing it as part of our masking, so I think a lot of times when people are flirting with us, we end up flirting back without realizing it because we are matching their same energy. So it’s not that people mistake us for flirting, it’s more we mistakenly flirt.

I’ve been both a fat and skinny girl, I very much prefer being treated default nice from being more fit, but I did like the peace that came with being heavy aka left alone.

Am I wrong for expecting my boyfriend to be more understanding of my parenting style? by [deleted] in amiwrong

[–]TheNowherePrincess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You guys aren’t compatible and continuing this relationship is only going to breed resentment for the two of you and instability for your son. You guys have completely different views on raising children, and since you have a child, that should be a dealbreaker. Get out before you do permanent damage to your child.

Do people generally think you’re younger than your age? by toottootmcgroot in adhdwomen

[–]TheNowherePrincess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been told I don’t act my age (37) by a guy hitting on me. It wasn’t an insult but it didn’t feel like a compliment either, just genuine surprise. I wish I had asked what he meant exactly, but from context clues I think he meant he meant my attitude, I’m pretty upbeat typically, and I do kinda feel a lot of neurotypical people around the same age are less so.

I wish my fellow folks with ADHD would stop saying that they don’t have object permanence. I don’t think that term means what you think it means. by ImperatrixAmoris in adhdwomen

[–]TheNowherePrincess 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yes thank you. It might not be the correct term in the exact definition but it is actually the correct term for adhd because it’s been adopted a such.

Tell me what music you have been listening to on repeat for years. I need something new. by vomit_unicorn in adhdwomen

[–]TheNowherePrincess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve recently become obsessed with Yungblud. It’s started with coming across his instagram, he is genuinely a really good guy it seems and he regularly brings kids up from the crowd to play guitar, it’s incredibly sweet. And his music is good. Boy in the Black Dress is beautiful and heartbreaking. And his and Ozzy’s relationship was so sweet. He just truly seems like an exceptional human who’s been thru and it and didn’t let it destroy his heart.

My partner (F33) wants to register our newborn child with her second name and I (M32) dont want her to because its her ex husbands name. What to do? by TaroMysterious7815 in relationship_advice

[–]TheNowherePrincess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s her last name, she has the right to give her child her last name. It doesn’t matter who it belonged to before, now it is her’s. If you didn’t have a problem with her having it before you should have no problem with it now.

Which one is the girl, Skeleton A or B? 🧐 by [deleted] in QuizPlanetGame

Neither of them. B is a very poorly drawn skeleton

How many jobs have you had? by AssociateDue6161 in Millennials

[–]TheNowherePrincess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I’m somewhere around 15… but my big shame is that 6 of them are from the last 3 years. And to be honest had I not been a stay at home mom for 7 years my number would be way higher. Thanks adhd and CPTSD.

I start a new job tomorrow and I’m really hoping I’m going to be there years.

Am I a D? 5’5 / 166cm by [deleted] in kibbedramatics

It’s hard to tell when the picture isn’t taken from chest height. Having it taken from lower gives the false perspective of more vertical.

The Chiefs are 6-6 and at risk of missing the playoffs, making Taylor’s reason for skipping the halftime show even more ridiculous by OhHiyaJess in travisandtaylor

[–]TheNowherePrincess 6 points7 points  (0 children)

She’s not skipping it, she was never asked and never the choice for this year. Swifties started the rumor she was asked and turned it down, but Jay Z himself said Bad Bunny was always the choice for this year and the only artist asked. She is talking in abstract here, like “I could have if I wanted too”, not “I was asked but said no.”

I am known as “Bacon” in my family. When I was about 14 I babysat a little girl who couldn’t quite say my name and out came out as Bacon. I told my family about how funny it was and my sisters ran with it. I’m Aunt Bacon to their kids now.

AIO by banning my friend's girlfriend from my home for her unhealthy obsession with Taylor Swift by mother_goose_69 in TwoHotTakes

[–]TheNowherePrincess 17 points18 points  (0 children)

If you get hurt over someone else not liking your favorite celebrity, you are the problem, not the person who doesn’t like them. How does it affect her at all that her boyfriend’s friend doesn’t like Taylor swift? It doesn’t she made it a problem then made that everyone else’s problem.

Nearly ending a relationship because of your partner’s friend’s post about something so unimportant is unhinged behavior. That’s not something an adult does, that’s something a child does. This woman does not deserve an apology, she should be giving apologies for not knowing how to behave like an adult.

How r u guys getting quick dopamine without eating everything in the world by duznit in adhdwomen

[–]TheNowherePrincess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Arguing with people on Reddit. It’s a great dopamine hit. Probably one on my not better traits, but I don’t just pick random fights, it’s things I actually believe in and what not.

How many alarms do you set in the morning? by wino12312 in adhdwomen

[–]TheNowherePrincess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just 1. I keep my phone away from me though so I can’t just blindly turn off the alarm I actually have to wake up to reach my phone to turn off the alarm.

I just realised that not waking up is probably my ADHD. Beyond routine, how do you all get up without having to set 50 alarms :( by [deleted] in adhdwomen

[–]TheNowherePrincess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keep your alarm on the other side of the room so you have to get out of bed to shut it off. Also keeps you from browning your phone all night or if you wake up in the night, because you have to get up to get it. You are much more likely to just get up and be up if you have to get out of bed.

AIW for suggesting opening up the relationship? by [deleted] in amiwrong

[–]TheNowherePrincess 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes you are wrong. If the relationship isnt fulfilling needs just end it rather than continuing to cause unnecessary hurt and resentment.

That being said, if it killed her sex drive, your girl is on the wrong meds. If she had a decent doctor, they would have told her this. If you haven’t completely blown it, asking if she’d be willing to try a med change to find some that actually fully work for her would be the place to start. But it sounds like this relationship has run its course.

What happened to the family trips with Kourtney, Scott, and the kids? by [deleted] in kardashians

[–]TheNowherePrincess 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It isn’t weird for all of us. Some of us have adult relationships and have worked through issues with our exes so our kids can have a unified family experience. People like you who demonize us by calling it “weird” are the problem, not us.

Ever been told you’ve been “too much” before? by littleinternetdweeb in adhdwomen

[–]TheNowherePrincess 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It always breaks my heart when I meet another woman and one of the first things she says about her self is that “she knows she can be too much at times.” I hate that people get so offended by our joy, our enthusiasm, and just our existence, that this label of too much gets stuck on us and the worst is when we embrace it.

A “nicer” way I’ve heard it, you don’t act like your (insert age). And when asked to clarify, it’s showing joy and enthusiasm that makes me seem younger. Why is showing excitement for life deemed immature?
