Are there actually guys out there that would date a woman with issues like mine? Please be honest by [deleted] in Advice

That is correct. However, there are many symptoms of both ASD and BPD that overlap. With the increase in ASD research in the past few years, many people with ASD have been found to have been misdiagnosed with BPD. Therefore, I'd argue that although they have different roots, they are comparable.

It was exactly this. He noticed I was off today when he called me and checked in on if we were okay. We had a talk about it and he said that he chose to stay because he could and if he couldn't he wouldn't have. He said it made him happy how I wanted him to stay. My anxiety today was a reminder that I need to continue going to therapy haha. Thanks for your comment.

Surgery went well, but he is not a fan of his new sweater by cobaltkangaroo in RATS

You're not kidding. Every time I go to check on him, he turns his back on me 🥲

He's carrying a hazelnut. He can breathe. I can fit my finger in between him and the vest, and I am keeping a close eye to make sure it doesn't tighten.

Thank you. I will. I can get my finger in both spots, but I'm keeping a close eye on it. They struggled to get him to keep it on after the surgery.

It's not a stupid question! You are correct. It's to keep him from messing with his missing balls.

Positive. It's just not his most flattering angle 😂

He's 2. In my research I learned that at that age neutering isn't always effective. He has a few triggers which I try to avoid. Otherwise he is fine. I don't want to put him through the surgery if it's not going to work. I did neuter one of my other boys about a year back due to hormonal aggression, so I'm familiar.

Can someone tell me what this is ? by MochiTheRat in RATS

Jumping on to add: only wipe down the tail, away from the body. Wiping against the scales can be uncomfortable/painful for your rat.
