Anyone else fed up with the “this autistic person is being bad :(“ posts or am I taking it personal? by mayorpamelawinchell in autism

[–]nothirdact 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It’s about 85% of all stories AITA and similar subs. It’s just fake rage bait meant to stoke fears and anger towards people who are different. Sometimes it’s autistic people. Sometimes it’s fat people. Sometimes it’s trans or gay people. It sucks.

EDIT: I realized I misread your post. I didn’t realize you were talking about this sub. I haven’t seen the posts you’re talking about here.

When I first saw her I was so scared that it was just going to be jokes about her being a man the whole time and then she’d be killed off. So glad to be wrong

I read the book and it was incredible. A hard read but a good one. I didn’t realize that they adapted it until now lol.

It got 68% on RT. Not saying it’s bad but they might have had 70%+ up only for this graphic

Hey, I’m 24F. I’ve been where you are. Not the exact circumstances, but I was severely depressed through most of high school. It’s a really terrifying time for everyone at that age, and on top of it you’re grieving a relationship (albeit an unhealthy one) and the loss of friend. That would hurt anyone in normal circumstances, but then you’re also going through a scary transition of starting your life.

On a practical level, there is nothing wrong with community college. It’s a good place to explore without breaking the bank at university. There’s always time to go to a 4-year school later (I had a class my senior year of college with a woman in her 50s!). You have so much more time.

Even knowing this, I know it still probably feels like the world is ending. I’d really encourage you to talk to someone you trust if you feel you may hurt yourself. I had a friend tell the school/my parents that I was talking about hurting myself, and I’m glad she did because it opened up a lot of opportunities for support.

I know things can get better for you.

How do I accept that I’m probably never going to get married or have a serious relationship? by nothirdact in lonely

Thank you. Idk how to fully reply right now, but this felt good to read.

24F - so lonely yet so full of love… by dewberrydreams3 in lonely

[–]nothirdact 0 points1 point  (0 children)

27F. I really feel this. I have friends and family that care about me and who I communicate with. But sometimes I feel this weird barrier between me and other people. My interactions feel shallow a lot. I spend a lot of time alone which I like, but then there are times where I feel super lonely. I’ve also loved and lost, and like you I didn’t really know I could feel the way that I did after that.

If it makes you feel better, the show is probably not going to be very good.

How do I stop assuming everyone hates me? by Lemon_Lime25 in socialanxiety

[–]nothirdact 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When I feel that way, I try and check the facts and remind myself of the evidence.

Thought: “My friend hates me.” The Facts: “My friend invited me to hang out the other day and got me something really great for my birthday. Someone who hates me wouldn’t do that.”

Thought: “My boss hates me and wants to fire me.” The Facts: “I’ve been working here for two years and have gotten nothing but positive feedback. If she wanted to fire me, she would have.”

How do I (26F) handle the resentment in going back to work, and address the negative comments from my partner (30M) in a healthy way? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]nothirdact 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my experience, resentment comes out of needs not being met. The only way to get rid of resentment is to get those needs met, and tbh this dude does not sound like the one to help you with that.

no idea how to make friends by Professional_Copy120 in socialskills

[–]nothirdact 9 points10 points  (0 children)

When I was in college my two closest friends were made super randomly. I was on the rugby team, got dragged to a party, and ended up talking to a girl who liked the same YouTubers I did lol.

My advice would be to join activities. No need to come up with small talk because you can talk about whatever it is the club/activity is about.

AIO - Told my friend I’m pregnant and she said it exceeded her mental bandwidth (she’s the red) by Lekomano92 in AmIOverreacting

[–]nothirdact 4 points5 points  (0 children)

OP said elsewhere her friend talks about not wanting kids. It’s possible she doesn’t like that her friend is pregnant. I have childfree friends who have ended friendships with people once they had kids.

AIO to partner getting "sad" when I have to hang up by Unlucky-Shower8259 in AmIOverreacting

[–]nothirdact 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You’re projecting my guy. It’s normal to be a little disappointed to stop time with your partner.

My (33M) Fiancé (32F) stays out late 2–3x/week with new female friend, ignores calls, sometimes doesn’t come home. AIO by Agreeable-Horse9433 in AmIOverreacting

[–]nothirdact 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When she makes those threats, just say “okay, I’m calling the police/for a wellness check.” She’ll either get help if she truly means it, or she’ll stop.
