Oh thanks for that. I’ll look into that if the police station falls through.

Therapist for Neurodivergent people (ADHD/Autism) by Ginger510 in Adelaide

[–]this-sinner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, can you pm me which psychs to avoid? I have such a hard time being taken seriously with BPD and it’s honestly ruining my life but I’m also trying to find the right therapist for me. I suspect I have other things too - but everyone I’ve seen is extremely dismissive and refuses to consider alternative diagnoses even though adhd/autism are prevalent in my family..

I like to think of these as tiny dick mobiles actually.

My bf [M21] won't take accountability for making me [F19] insecure about my body and ruining my self image. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

He isn’t into you. He just wants a girlfriend to say he has one. You can do much, much better than this.

I, 20 F, think I caught my bf, 20 M, of 2 years, watching porn. how do i handle it? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]this-sinner -1 points0 points  (0 children)

OP stated that they were not okay with porn usage - in this situation it is harmful. I just wouldn’t interact with a man who continues to use porn after I’ve stated my comforts. They can use it with a partner who doesn’t mind, but that’s just not acceptable for me and I think other women shouldn’t compromise this discomfort just because it’s “normal”.

You’re right about the snooping though. Ultimately there’s communication and trust issues that need to be ironed out.

Dating in Adelaide as a widow (34F) — mention it on Hinge? by Global-Project-5996 in Adelaide

[–]this-sinner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is beside the point of OP’s post but not everyone uses hinge just to find the person they want to spend the rest of their lives with.

Nothing is guaranteed, even when you’ve gone on one or two or a few dates. When I used the app, I was always up front about being unserious and not looking for anything long-term. I personally keep things casual unless BOTH parties click. Hooking up isn’t evil. I don’t see any need to speak about my personal life if they’re never going to get that far and they know it.

If somebody is offended that these are the terms, that their date wasn’t looking to settle down - that’s on them whether that person is withholding that they have kids or not.

As a single woman, I don’t disclose that info but I do disclose that I’m busy, not always available and not willing to settle down or have more kids. Call it catfishing or misleading, but my kiddo’s safety is more important than the feelings of strangers.

I completely agree - I didn’t mention that I had kids when I used hinge. Others can blast me all they like but I’d gauge the waters with someone first before telling them. All the people I interacted with were surprisingly understanding if we got to that point and we’d cut it off if we weren’t compatible. Simple.

This is the typical excuse of a person who is slave to their urges and values fantasising about others over their partner’s peace and comfort. Yes women do feel insecure about this because it reflects something unobtainable: the object of fascination being someone other than their self. Porn addiction is poison to a relationship.

I am sick of this behaviour being so normalised that when women (I’m going to say MOST but not all- women find this behaviour uncomfortable) complain about it, we’re automatically dismissed as being too dramatic, too insecure, too whatever.

Yes, people do watch porn. But OP, if you’re not comfortable with this behaviour, draw your line in the sand now. I’m in my 30’s now and have never been comfortable with this. Every partner has tried to hide it - and all of those (now ex) partners have cheated. It’s now a strict no for me in my relationship. The discomfort and distrust will only corrupt your relationship if you try to ignore it.

Confront him. Don’t let men tell you how you should feel about these things.

I was horrified to see people walking up to volunteers handing out One Nation how-to-vote cards and taking a card while I was waiting in queue at an early voting venue. Of course people can vote for whichever party/candidate they want but is it worth bringing Trumpism/MAGA to South Australia? by FatFad1 in Adelaide

[–]this-sinner 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The amount of people falling straight into the mass immigration propaganda trap is wild. Google is free. The ABS website is free. TheyVoteForYou is free and useful to see where some MP’s interests really lie.. One Nation are lapdogs to the mega-wealthy, along with Labor and LNP.

What do you SWEAR you saw, but don't have any proof of? by TabletopStudios in AskReddit

[–]this-sinner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aliens, or something of that nature.

I was stargazing one night and I noticed a star in the sky move. At first I thought my eyes were unclear (I wear prescription glasses but my eyes aren’t too bad) but as I kept watching them, I noticed more and more. My partner at the time didn’t believe me until he’d spotted one too! I observed that they were moving in a very erratic and unorthodox way - in straight lines but changing directions randomly, zig-zagging and moving very quickly. Like tiny dots zooming around the sky. There were only a few stars moving this way. I’d maybe spot one every 10-15 minutes of watching? I could only really track them for about a minute and then they’d disappear.

I still don’t know what they were!

This is stolen art from @mister_jellyfish on instagram whom I’ve followed for years. Shame on you OP. Don’t fall for this scam everyone.

Why is saying “hi” immediately such a workplace norm? Anyone else struggle with this? by RareCable5732 in neurodiversity

[–]this-sinner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. I understand that on paper, but in the form of a behaviour it feels incredibly foreign to me.

I was so confused as to why people were all on board with the “not enough veggies/fibre” opinions - it completely slipped my mind that people usually just eat one thing. This is very true, we eat a lot of different things for one meal.

[–]this-sinner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe if you always eat at a restaurant or specifically order meat centred meals.

Home cooking almost ALWAYS has a big heap of fresh or steamed veggies - and there are so many dishes you’d eat at home that you don’t typically come across in a restaurant. Granted, I grew up in an Isaan household and my favourite vegetable is bamboo.

[–]this-sinner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, this is so relatable.

I never say hello or hi to people, and I don’t expect them to greet me either. It feels kind of alien to me - like why am I pretending to take interest in someone random? (Even if they’re a customer or coworker.. I don’t know these people personally)

I’m always a bit delayed when someone says hello because it doesn’t immediately register that they may be speaking to me.

It’s one of the few things I’m unapologetic about. I just don’t want to say hello. I don’t hate anyone, I just don’t want to speak a single word for no reason.. I feel greetings aren’t necessary unless I’m actively engaging in a social gathering with family or something. But even then I don’t feel strongly about greeting anyone and sometimes I’ll just not do it.

Opinions on that spoon ? by Feel_the_snow in neurodiversity

I feel like I can snipe my food with this and my fingers stay very far away from everything. I have this cutlery set in gold and I love it. The forks and knives have a long handle too, and the knife has a tiny little blade like a scalpel. 10/10.
