| He's an Anti-Vaxxer, so that DQ's him in my eyes. RFK has some other weird ideas too, so not a fan |

| It sounds like it's time to let it go, obviously she has no interest in a friendship anymore. I would say give her a few months and see what happens. If you hear nothing, then you will know. I was dumped by an EX-friend of 17 years, about 10 years ago. On one hand it was relieved as I was fed up wit... |

Not a lot of people know I'm gay or suspect it, as I live in a semi right wing area and I don't like sharing my personal life at work. Extended family does not know I am gay.
I have not noticed a lot of homophobia but transphobia is everyplace. |

| I tend not to discuss them, unless I know for sure it's ok or only places online. I just answered this in another thread but yeah after some negative blowback, it's best I find to keep a lid on it. |

| Trying to think. Maybe a little but in the past, I've usually gotten " No body cares" "stop talking about it" " Shut up" . So, I just keep them to myself mostly, even if I know someone might have a shared interest, still I am hesitant to mention it. This might explain w... |

This popped up on my YouTube suggestions. I'm scared to know what the inside of the house looks like. Surprised as well they don't have a HOA in a neighborhood like that. |

| I'm a bit late but with a pair of Clippers (Oster or Style Liner are good ones) always work well, you cannot mess up with them. Been cutting my hair with them for about 20 years now. |

| Having been on the receiving end of bullies much of my life, I find they work in various ways. One is, they seek out weak people (or seem to be weak) and as it's been said, People on the spectrum are animals of prey (meaning the ones that get eaten). They exploit them as they are easy targets.
