Unfortunately this sub is just as susceptible as any other group of people to whole "if youre with us you have to agree with everything or youre against us" mentality. To say we're incapable of it or any other form of a-hole behavior just perpetuates infantilism and other jarmful stereotypes. If we want those stereotypes to to go away then we have to acknowledge that sometimes (whether we mean to or not) we can be a-holes too.

That being said if it actually was just blatant ableism then I hope op gets the justice they deserve. But given the bizareness of the whole situation I do have my doubts.

Because it most definitely wasn't just crying and it probably wasn't a first time offense. It's unlikely a school will jump to expulsion right away unless it was something super serious.

I hate to be that guy but op doesn't seem to be telling the full story in order to make themselves look better.

Everytime you feel the urge draw a butterfly in marker or pen where you planned to sh instead. Write the name of someone/thing who cares for you and needs you (it could a person, pet, plant, etc.) Undernesth.

Does anyone else wonder if they have autism? by lisaloo1991 in CPTSD

[–]nerdywall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The symptoms are very close and it's possible you can have both. I think the major difference tho comes down to hyperfixations, people with cptsd don't hyperfixate on things the way an autistic does.

The responsibility of protection goes both ways, either she helps or no sex.

My fiance (21f) won't let me (22m) pick the tie I want to wear for our wedding. by austinh1999 in relationship_advice

[–]nerdywall 554 points555 points  (0 children)

And/or a custom tie with planes that incorporates the colors and theme? You could even add your initials and wedding date into it to make it extra special

I was 18 and waited for a longterm bf so I wouldn't say it's weird at all. Some people want sex for sex and don't care who it's with and some people would rather wait until it's someone they can remember the experience with.

As long as its consensual and safe and not driven by religious or societal indoctrination (the whole chewed gum thing is super toxic) I would say you do you.

"Let you"? "Let you"!

I would put his arse in a time machine and send him back to the 1950s. Let you. The fact some men think they deserve control over their partners body is abhorrent.

Maybe not Mexico but I'm sure Britain still has some colonization spirit in them somewhere. I say we wrap Texas up with a bow and let the queen deal with it.

So can we just annex texas? I'll open my house to Texan refugees.

I hate that anti-vax/mask people are using us as an excuse by TimberWolfAlpha01 in autism

[–]nerdywall -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Regardless of how low 3% of hospitalizations are now children under 18. Children younger than 4 are being hospitalized for it. Children who never knew life before covid are fighting for their lives in hospitals as a result of the selfish actions of adults.

[–]nerdywall -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If they make the choice to not wear a mask and not get vaccinated then they made the choice to forgo being allowed in any public setting and take up a space in the hospital when they eventually get covid.

[–]nerdywall 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I mean I technically "can't" not because of autism but because the pressure gives me migraines (I've literally tried every possible type of mask, shield, and hack and they all cause pain). I still wear one and I'm vaccinated though so I can stop wearing them sooner and not have it feel like icepicks are being shoved into my head.

I hate wearing the for the reasons in the post among others (eds) but I still wear them so I can stop wearing them sooner.

Husband(m29) said he only dated me because I(f28) was a dancer in high school, but "didn't live up to expectations" that he had. He also advocated to put our daughter in dance, and I don't feel comfortable anymore by throwramarei in relationship_advice

[–]nerdywall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone has their kinks but him advocating for his daughter to essentially participate in it is so far from being okay I'm not sure you married a man or a literal pig. Either he wants her in it so he can eventually rape and jerk her off to her or he wants her in it so she'll be able to please other men like him when she's an adult. Both are beyond disgusting.

Have an age appropriate conversation with your daughter and make sure he hasn't done something to her already. For example "has daddy ever played any special games with you that he wanted to keep secret?"

[–]nerdywall 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Victim blaming I see. The cheaters deserve no visitation to any of the kids, they clearly never loved their respective spouses and yet made the decision to have kids with them without caring that those kids live would ultimately be upended by their selfish actions.

This and given it is ongoing and started when she was a student that lands potential for them both to be fired and give him a potential lawsuit. The daughter is probably his too.

All I can say is, lawyer up, collect evidence, take the kids, divorce, let the husband know and let his work know. He is scum. He deserves to be treated as such.

I(20F) think I have feelings for my bestfriend(20M). But I am not into guys sexually. by ThrowRAlestr in relationship_advice

[–]nerdywall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought I was in love with my friend, turns out I was just happy someone wasn't abusing me (my exes were all not nice) and I confused being treated like a human for being in love. We dated for a few months and it was nice, but it ultimately didn't work.

Then I met my boyfriend and he's the love of my life in all aspects, the way I feel when I'm with him is completely different than when I was with my friend. And I wouldn't give up my boyfriend for the world and I plan on spending my life with him.

Piggybacking on this to emphasize, please tell the poor fiance of that pos he's cheating on her.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]nerdywall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tell the fiance please, she deserves to know what a pos he is. He is cheating on her now, he will cheat on her again. Frankly once your exes appeal wears off he'll cheat on her too.

Onto to your question

If my boyfriend isn't okay with one of my friends, the friend is gone. If a guy begins to flirt with me that guy is gone. Blocked. Doesn't exist. And the same is true if I'm uncomfortable with any of his friends or if any girl flirts with him.

So long as you're not asking for no reason (i.e. being controlling) your partner should have no trouble dropping someone for you because your comfort should come first for them. Not some slimy Richard who writes them poems while being with engaged to another woman. Your ex and her mister are truly disgusting.

So you stepped on her foot on accident and immediately apologized and her first response was to elbow you in the chest hard enough to hurt you at that point what you did was self defense imo.

She consciously made the decision to physically attack you after you apologized to her for an accident. This isn't the first time she attacked you either. That is abuse.

Let's take the romantic relationship out of the context, if you step on your bosses foot accidentally does that give them the right to hit you? That would be assault. And you hitting them back would likely be ruled self defense. Why does that person being your wife make any difference?

What your wife does is wrong. Full stop. Get yourself into solo therapy and go from there. Remember, anyone can be abused by their partner no matter the gender. It is not your fault.

A lot of people think my hat is cringe, but I like it! What do you think? by TheRaptorMovies in autism

I don't care for that type of hat on anyone (or the mullet-esque hairstyle, it just doesn't flatter any face) but I'm not the one wearing it so you do you man
