| I think in a way that I'm glad I made it into my 20's before I was diagnosed because if I had been when I was younger, I think that would have been used against me in my family--a way to discredit me even more. And without a family that was there for me, I think it would have been overwhelming and b... |

| I've also dated people because I was just very physically lonely. And that hasn't paid off too well, haha. I agree, that in our society that's only supported inside a romantic relationship. But, I don't think it's good to think someone will never accept you or love you for who you are. I think it's ... |

| It took a long time for me to be understanding of people born male who wanted to be more feminine, because it's the opposite of how I feel. I'm female, but gravitate to a balance between male and female. I felt very constricted into the stereotypical "female" ideas, and so when I saw a mal... |

| I would say that I'm probably non-binary. I've only really recently come to understand that trans doesn't mean that I have to want to be male--because I so don't. I'm just who I am, and who I've always been. I would say that I'm both male and female. That is what is inside of me, and I'm happy about... |

| I understand, but I feel like the opposite. I am female, but I feel very much BOTH male and female. But I really want a more male body. Thinking of maybe getting top surgery at some point. But I don't think I'll get into T or anything. If you're interested in this, and this is really true to who you... |

| I would contact with the expectation of getting a picture within the first part of the conversation. "Reply with picture" and if they don't, move on (even if they keep messaging you). |

| Wow do I really agree with this post. I feel like it's gotten extremely bad in the last 5 years or so. I've walked out on a date because the person was jumping all over my "incorrect" wording. I just got sick of it. I'm perfectly capable and willing to learn and be supportive of people, es... |

| That's a really good idea. How long does it take (on average) to heat up and what temperature? Also, do you ever reuse the tins? |

| Your parents didn't tell you? That is so wrong. I'm sorry that's putting such stress on your trust of them. When I think of how I have learned that I have AS at the age of 27--I think I'm kind of grateful that I didn't know when I was younger (This is 100% my personal opinion, and NO one needs to ag... |

| I know, it really is an uphill battle!! I also live by the microwave, but I hate that because I worry that I'm killing whatever nutrition in the food. I really do want to get behind some meal prepping, but that, like all my "ideas", falls flat after the first two weeks. Aspergers is the mo... |

I totally agree with all of you that said you would just snack all the time--this is totally how I feel. If I could live on snacks and beverages, I would be perfectly happy. I als... |

The effort to make something or any of the day to day things I have to do in order to eat. I seriously feel like it takes up my whole day! Three meals a day? Cr... |
