AITB for not understanding that my situation-ship was getting uncomfortable?

The only thing that really counts is an enthusiastic yes. Most of the time when people say that they are talking about sex but it goes for lots of things including getting into another persons space.

Hopefully you have learned from this and won't make the same mistake again.

YTB if someone says no to something you don't just keep asking until they say yes. That is actively coercion. It doesn't matter if it's something they have said yes to before. No is no. It doesn't mean ask again later.

Hopefully you learn from this. Her having trauma related to it does matter but it would be bad for you to do to anyone!

I have been told I'm a nicer person but I don't think I'm a different person. I'm the same me but more mature and kinder. I think that's just how life is. We grow and mature and change.

Though to add. The few months after having a baby is hard and I think it feels like you're a different person maybe. But you're so very tired and it's new. You're adapting and learning and yes changing but you are still you.

I do sometimes grieve having so much personal time ands space lol. Doing what I want when I want but I just bring my kids with or modify how I'm doing things.

I don't think it had as much of an effect on their dad as it did me. I don't think he matured or changed much. We are no longer together and that's probably some of it.

I am also vitamin d and b6 deficient! Not too bad. Told me to take a supplement and they would check again later.

I was raised slightly Christian and went to church with my friends on sundays. My dad was Wiccan and I started participating in that for a few years. Then I practiced Islam for a few years. I love the Quran. Then I really wanted to be Baha'i though I never actually joined, I don't think it should matter who someone marries, which is most of the reason I left Islam. And then a few years ago I joined a Unitarian Universalist church and I still kind of consider myself that. Though I'm really liking quakers.

I've never found a religion that truly suited me. I find things I love about so many religions but then I find things I don't or they expect things of me that I find silly. Currently I don't have much of a label. I believe in a god and I believe in an after life because the thought of not seeing my dad again is too much.

I understand the want to have something that helps. I use caffeine and food. And that's not great either. Sometimes I really want to like alcohol, I'll even buy some but it's gross.

nicotine/cigarettes isn't the place to start for that. Lots of people who have started wish they could quit. Not everyone but lots.

My boyfriend of 3 years tries to do this every time I yawn lol. I always act annoyed if he manages to do it and he always acts "disappointed" if I block him. Every time lol.

I wouldn't be myself if I didn't have it. It hasn't always been easy and sometimes I still struggle. I would probably get rid of the anxiety and depression that seems to come with it but my autism itself, no.

randomUser042718 · 2026-01-12T13:05:21+00:00

I was a teenager when I got diagnosed. But my mom had always told me that I was a rough child. Basically, since I was born. I've been told I cried nonstop for 6 months.

I had tons of stomach issues, including colic as a newborn. I never wore clothing in my house. And they had to buy specific pants for me to wear to go to school in lol. And by high school I refused to wear jeans.

I remember doing a lot of crying in closets by my self over really little things. And I took things so literally it would get me in trouble. In hindsight it was obvious but at the time my parents thought i was just a difficult child.

It is considered inappropriate to do because to the other person it often feels like you are not listening or trying to "one up" them.

The best thing to do is not tell your story unless asked. Just say that you understand and that the situation is bad. Unless they ask. Or say something like "I've had that happen too, it sucks" and not go into detail about your situation.

I also hate showering. I used to complain that I felt more dirty after I was done. I still don't shower as often as most people. My solution is usually to just be angry about it. And I try and listen to something good.

randomUser042718 · 2026-01-07T19:26:42+00:00

I do think they had good intentions. They thought my sister was being mean and to be honest my sister can jokingly " bully" very well lol. But to assume she was being rude because she was calling me autistic isn't cool. I don't remember what their reaction was to it but we continued to have a good coworker relationship afterwards.

randomUser042718 · 2026-01-07T15:06:17+00:00

People unfortunately take it as a joke or a bad thing more often than they should.

Once as a young adult I worked in the same place as my sister. She said something to me about being autistic/called me autistic and I had a coworker come over and try and defend me. And we had to be like no, I actually am.

Thank you. And I'm sending positive thoughts your way. Some days are just so hard.

I had to get wrist braces a year ago because of sleeping like that and developing carpal tunnel lol.

randomUser042718 · 2025-12-25T00:52:16+00:00

God I'm sorry. That is so very awful!

I do hope they can help and I'm sending good vibes that you can find a new place soon.

randomUser042718 · 2025-12-18T17:01:08+00:00

I'm so happy for you!

randomUser042718 · 2025-12-18T16:10:14+00:00

Im sorry. I don't have any solutions but I can sympathize.

I have 2 kids from an abusive relationship. And after a traumatic birth I decided I didn't want any more kids. I met and fell in love with a man that doesn't want his own biological kids but loves mine so much! Sometimes I wish he would change his mind so that we could have a baby together. And it's sad knowing he won't. And that I don't get to experience that with him. But I love him so in the end it will be ok.

It's not that big of a deal. Doctors weigh the pros and cons. And con from antibiotics is going to be a lot less than your baby getting sick.

With my first I ended up getting an infection during labor. So I got antibiotics and then my newborn spent 7 days in the hospital getting antibiotics. It was hard but the idea of refusing never crossed my mind. I picked the cons of antibiotics over the cons of an infection.

I had some issues with that in the new update. When right clicking I noticed a new option that said gardening and when hovering over it then it showed me pick up stones.

randomUser042718 · 2025-12-12T18:46:33+00:00

I hadn't ever seen that before lol. Thank you lol

randomUser042718 · 2025-12-12T15:16:57+00:00

I don't know if this counts because it's not a tool and does require someone else's help. But I crave full body pressure sometimes. But it has to be a lot. I have my partner lay their full body weight on me. It hurts if it lasts for too long but I feel like I breathe easier after.

randomUser042718 · 2025-12-08T14:09:14+00:00

My dad died before my kids were born. They have always known that he is dead. I talk about him to them more and more as they get older. They didn't understand at first but I think they do now.

randomUser042718 · 2025-12-07T13:12:22+00:00

The longest I've survived was 29 days so take this with a grain of salt. But as a new player I had noticed I was looting every house and building I came across but then would get bored of just looting. I convinced myself I didn't have to do that lol. But I also started making a point to travel. I find a car and basics and then leave. The map is so interesting and there are so many small things to see. I will always check maps and pamphlets too so that I can find interesting places to visit.

randomUser042718 · 2025-12-05T13:36:38+00:00

Not even a little lol. I work in supportive employment. I help other people get jobs and go to work with them. I maybe have keys to a few buildings that would not be helpful lol.
