| That girl was probably not worth my time to reject me for being jobless. Well put. It's better than starting a relationship & then your partner starts resenting you & b!tching at you a lot about you being unemployed or not earning enough. Very luckily I never experienced that but I've known... |

| Me & my first girlfriend wanted to be married when our relationship got serious & we didn't want kids. I was 20 at the time & she was a bit younger than me. When my second relationship got serious we both wanted to be married & she was 19 at the time & I was 28. We did not want k... |

| I saw the second half last night. One of my girlfriend's brothers spend the night here to watch a bit of movies with her since it's her birthday tomorrow. I was on computer a bit because movies require more focus & I wanted to give them some space. Her brother is a big fan of B horror movies &am... |

| I zone out & daydream a lot & am too much in my own head to worry much about social mishaps. It may appear to others like I worry because I'm introverted, quiet, & prefer others to take the lead with things. Some of why is because I either don't care &/or my mind goes blank during th... |

| I forgot to mention that I don't floss partly due to my fine motor-skills & some of my teeth are very close together despite having had braces so it's painful when the tight spaces are flossed. I do use the stick floss when I get something stuck between my teeth. It's a lot easier for me to use ... |

| This is news to me, but unless you have a compelling need to drive I'd give it a miss! I'm aware there is a connection but I think it's a lower percent of autistics. Lots of the ones who do have seizures tend to be lower functioning & have them as a kid or teen. I suspect sometimes seizures can... |

| I also keep hoping I was misdiagnosed because I keep worrying that I'm going to suddenly develop epilepsy mid-life. It's why I'm scared to drive. They often associate autism with epilepsy and I read somewhere that people with autism have a higher risk of developing epilepsy even if they never did b... |

| But in North America there is so much stigma that you're seen as a slob or a creep for not constantly keeping yourself clean. I wonder if this varies by country. I've heard a stereotype that people in a certain country are missing teeth because they don't brush & that people in another country ... |

| When you say “Open”, do you mean exclusively Poly or there’s no limit? The latter is a STD pandemic recipe. I know someone who is in exclusive three-way relationship with two bi women (lucky bastard :lol:) - that sounds fine as long they are all in it. An exclusive Poly would be as STD-proof as an ... |
