The unpopular WP members club

Post Reply New Topic

Well, i am new here so people seem to have no real interest in what i have to share with the world. I personally think that being unpopular is a lot easier than having to deal with the responsibility that being popular entails. And above all, the people seem to be a lot less full of themselves!

I am unpopular on this forum and in life, but in life I am making a lot of effort to become more popular and it seems to be working wonders.

Good luck to all the other aspies!

Yet another accusation of being a troll.
Why do people always just assume I'm trying to be an a***hole? Why is that a given? Don't people consider any other explanation for where my posts could be coming from? I never mean anything here nastily. Ever. I may outright disagree, but I hope I try to keep my responses respectful. I may ask taboo questions, but that's because I want insight into the issue. When I reply, I want to discuss, or am offering some insight that might be useful to the questions others have asked.
And yet repeatedly, people read all this nasty, machiavellian, personally attacking judgements into my posts that aren't there. I mean things innocently, because often, I just don't know.
Apparently I don't have enough social graces or emotional intelligence to function adequately even on an internet forum meant for autistic people. This does not bode well for how I am capable of functioning in the real world.
That's what sucks about developmental delays - when it was age appropriate for the fact that other people dislike me to be bothering me, I was too far behind to notice or care. Now I'm supposed to be old enough to be beyond caring if anyone likes me or not, and it starts bothering me. At least, it does today.
/Rant.

Can I join this group? Who here thinks I'm posting too much and "pushing it for someone who's a newbie"? Hopefully no one, cuz I'm not going away!! !

Thanks, Mr. Robot! I wouldn't go away anyway! I'm annoying like that. I like something, I stay. So how was your day?

Wow, that's great, and he can run to you when he has a problem and when his parents don't understand him!

My day was boring, except for talking to my son and my friend. I did laundry. I slept for 3 hours, about. I need a coffee. I need to focus on my long to-do list. But there's nothing on it I can do today, except talk to people.

Oh, the "He'll grow out of it... he's BETTER grow out of it" type of parent.

I want to mentor an Aspie or atypically autistic kid too but it might have to be a certain kind I can relate to, I dunno.

You could call youth protection, but then he might be taken away from YOU too... I think I understand...

Yes, that's a good start, and yes, the boy could be taken away if he gets hit again. Just tell the boy to tell you if his father hits him again; telling the police is iffy if he and you want to stay in contact.
