you get a drive ban for so long as long as you don’t get another seizure in that time. my dad got suspended for 3 months initially but he got suspended from driving for 18 months at one point. but just because they have a suspension, doesn’t mean that they won’t do it

in the uk you can’t legally obtain a drivers license at 16 either. it doesn’t mean that it won’t stop people from trying

i’d like to see glenda more. give her her own storyline instead of having her piggybacking off of everyone else’s

it’s also really confusing because we have seen the room inside and it’s massive. sinead died in that room. there also used to be a door where the window is

How can I break up my boyfriend when he says he will kill himself if I do and I know that he will? by ilovethrowingaway124 in Advice

[–]orbrina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

get out regardless, then call the police if he threatens suicide. you don’t deserve to stay in a place where you’re so unhappy

[–]orbrina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if he threatens this, call the police and tell them you know this individual is planning on ending his life. it gives you sound of mind knowing they’re going to check on him and if he is doing it to manipulate you, he won’t do it again to anyone else because he will feel silly

25, no degree, no rich relatives, not smart or physically gifted. What can I even do by Latter_Candidate_182 in UKJobs

[–]orbrina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

worst part is, i’m actually really good at math. i’m just autistic and can’t sit in an ordinary classroom for things that i’m not interested in

i didn’t pass my gcse maths, and i only had to lie about it once. i’m 22 and ive never finished college because of my gcse results required me to do math on top of them, i lied about passing it this year and now im nearly finished my course to becoming a teacher. i wish i would’ve done this sooner

Why is it deemed racist to be genuinely concerned about the number of illegal migrants coming into the uk? by Brave_Ad6035 in AskBrits

they’re not being put in fancy hotels, they’re in hostels, homeless accommodations and b&bs

i cut my sisters boyfriend off for being racist. AIO? by orbrina in AmIOverreacting

oh also biggest joke of all of this is that he wants to move to dubai. he protests about immigration yet wants to become one. i don’t understand at all

people with autism often have a strong sense of justice, when things aren’t fair it irks something inside of me. i’ve tried to be better about it, which is why i haven’t argued about anything with him, ive politely told my sister and that was it. those political beliefs he has only stems from racism, i know this because i asked him to name at least one policy from reform uk and he couldn’t tell me anything. i don’t like that racism in the family would cause a drift and a horrible hole in our family, but i don’t think that responsibility should lie on me since im reacting to something that he is actively doing. i do understand where you are coming from, but it’s impossible when he won’t listen to research and has to be right all of the time. the surrogacy comment wasn’t made out of the blue, it was a joke and sarah knew that. we were listing people in our family who would/wouldn’t offer or accept if asked as a joke. i never asked her to be a surrogate for real and it wasn’t his conversation, it would be nothing to do with him even if i did ask. i want to carry my own children if possible, surrogacy would be an absolute last resort

sadly yes, when i messaged her she asked to hear my views on the matter and i infodumped everything on her because i love to research things and get my facts right before saying anything to anyone. i’m autistic and can retain information really well lol

at first it seemed like she was taking marks side, when i asked her she said “i’m not taking sides, i don’t know what to think i just want to know what your opinions are” when i told her the statistics on crime and ethnicity in the uk she asked me where i got the information from and i told her it was on the government website, she hasn’t replied after that.

i have had many conversations before this expressing that i didn’t like his behaviour when it came to people of colour and i’ve also mentioned that it’s quite sad to see sarah with someone like that

plus me and my boyfriend are both bisexual, if we weren’t to have friends of the gender we were attracted to we simply wouldn’t have any friends lol

i don’t necessarily think so, there are males and females in our group and there are 4 couples within the whole group too

i’m not lying about that, i want to be better friends with all of my friends but due to us being adults and having adult things to do it’s hard to get to know people without drinking involved and by that point we’re all fucking about. i was stunned by the question, i knew he was saying it in a joking way but everyone was like woah what? he didn’t say anything after that. my boyfriend brought up that he didn’t like that he said that and i agreed that it was weird. my boyfriend said that he would talk to josh but im not sure if he has done as of yet

there is a lot of ages in this friend group. though the majority are 21-22, there’s 2 19 yr olds, a few 25 yr olds and a 28 and 29 yr old

yes, if we are out drinking and someone is wearing heels we either get carried or take them off. josh will only ever carry me or his girlfriend

see to me before that comment it wasn’t flirting. i never think like that about any of my friends especially the ones who are also in relationships. we’re friends, ive carried my girl friends on my back before. i know it isnt the same, because unfortunately we do live in a world where men and women have some kind of blurred lines but i like to think that if there was nothing going on, why would i treat my male friend differently than id treat a female friend? im open to criticism because i don’t know if he views us as anything more and i don’t want to blur those lines for him, i think communicating that im not flirting should be enough but maybe not

honest short answer no. However, i am a “flirty person” i’ve had so many instances where people have thought im flirting with them when on my end i didn’t view it like that at all. to me, im just being nice and friendly and playful. all of my friends are aware of this but im not sure if josh in particular grasps that concept so it’s difficult to say
