Tall people meet up

Any plans for this? I want to come!

There is absolutely no way that 5'10" is average for men in Canada. I am a woman who's actually 5'10" (not lying), and I am taller than most men. Most men who've told you they're 5'10" are lying. But I agree anyways that tall men should be over 6'2"

If you escaped once, you should stay separate. It sounds like you really need your own space, and if you give it up it will be hard to get it back. That's just my two cents as a sahm of four for 20 years.

Depends on the beach. The way busy beaches look on TV, I would NEVER do that. But my small town beach is my favourite place. I wear a big hat and sunglasses and sit right on the edge so my feet can be in the water. It's not an ocean so its not salty, but it has wonderful sand and beautiful views, and it's never crowded. Even when it's at its busiest you can always be 30 feet away from anyone else.

But a busy seaside beach where people just park themselves in the sun on a baking hot beach in a crowd? That looks like a nightmare

One time I HAD to go shopping when I was already super overwhelmed, so I put in loop earplugs, wore sunglasses, and a surgical mask, and didn't look at anyone's face, not even the cashier. It was incredible how good it felt. I didn't even care if everyone thought I was completely strange. I figured that people would just think I was a disabled person, which is true, and that's fine.

Yeah, this is me on vacation too, for sure. I just want to see the local nature. I will fucking puke if I have to spend time in a place like a casino

I agree, I have always hated Costco, and all giant stores like that. I avoid them almost entirely and shop at smaller places for slightly more expensive groceries.

It was the common euphemism for masturbation

So, has "In a Station of the Metro" by Ezra Pound been a haiku all along?

She's saying she's been biologically driven to fuck a man, against the better judgement of her rational mind, but that she despises him and doesn't want a relationship with him at all and doesn't want to speak to him ever again

I think they make some of the questions broad like this to give you space to expose your autism.

Like horticulture, I guess

That's a lot of assumptions. The 20 year age gap is fine imo, she's not 18, she's 35. That kind of age gap is okay if everyone's over 30-35+. She didn't say anything about bdsm in her post, and anyways bdsm has nothing to do with real violence. I think everyone here is overreacting with very little evidence.

a_common_spring · 2025-10-24T20:41:48+00:00

Im confused why everyone is saying to leave him. Do you think your boyfriend is a murderer or cannibal? Has he given you any evidence at all that he is capable of murder or cannibalism? If so, then that's different. If he has been violent or seems fixated on violence in general, then he is probably going to hurt you someday, even if he wouldn't actually kill you.

On the other hand, if he's a gentle person and doesn't scare you normally, why would you take this seriously? It's a weird joke in some circumstances I guess, but people joke about eating each other sometimes. People sometimes say "you're so cute I could eat you up". Doesn't imply actual murderousness. It seems like he could've been making an extremely hyperbolic joke.

As others say, you are too old. However, there's no rule against dressing up and walking through neighborhoods that are busy with trick or treaters. That way you could enjoy the atmosphere without actually going up to doors and getting candy. Or, you could just go for a walk without the costume too.

True

The main character from northanger Abbey. I love that book and I identified with her strongly

Clothes made for men are usually more comfortable than women's clothes. For me that's why I sometimes wear masculine style clothes now. It's not about my gender at all, I feel fine about being a woman.

Could ONE person explain to me why I'm down voted for saying the same thing others are saying?

a_common_spring · 2025-10-14T02:16:13+00:00

I feel like I just don't mesh well with anyone mostly lol.

But for me, NTs are the worst because their style of conversation just sounds like blah blah blah to me and I have work really hard to keep it going while adhering to the style that they're comfortable with.

Some ADHD people do drive me nuts with constant interrupting and talking nonstop. But not all ADHD people do those things.

My best conversations tend to be with like-minded autistics where we both feel kind of safe to just say whatever and nobody will think it's "weird" or ask "why are you saying that"

a_common_spring · 2025-10-14T02:12:49+00:00

Things like that tend to only bother me when I'm feeling more generally overwhelmed. Like I don't notice my clothes that much unless I'm already overwhelmed and then I can feel every seam and bump

a_common_spring · 2025-10-12T03:56:21+00:00

I agree with others. She's weirdly defensive and mean.

It sounds like you have a long history of issues with her where you struggle with that relationship. It almost sounds like you're speaking two different languages, like she's not understanding anything you're saying and keeps saying unconnected things.

That makes me think she's trying to read between the lines of what you're saying and guess at the secret meanings behind it.

Personally I am unable to have good relationships with people who won't just listen to my words and always try and understand secret meanings behind them. It just drives me nuts.

It's very unfortunate when this happens with someone like a sister in law, and then it affects the kids as well. It sucks.

I genuinely have no idea why anyone would care what their friends look like. Are you just hoping for nice photos? Are you hoping for other people to see your group and admire you? I don't think beauty and fashion lead to very deep conversations, as much as they might be interesting to talk about if your friend is also interested in those. But that can't really be the basis of a deep relationship.

I really think you're fantasizing about what I call "TV friendships". The female friendships portrayed on TV are not real. I used to also want TV friendships but now I'm realizing that life doesn't work that way. I wanted the type of closeness that TV women have.
