| I think as long as you are honest there is no immorality in asking. Be prepared for backlash/criticism. I suppose you already search all possible avenues for your hobby so perhaps include some general info on what you are searching for and perhaps someone can point you in the direction of what you s... |

| I do not live in NYC, but I’m going to assume it’s not like a separate country and I have traveled extensively in and out of the USA. Native New Yorker opinions should outweigh my opinion. I have had servers at higher end places just take that 100 dollars and I have had to request my change. If you ... |

| I’ve had epidurals and paracervical blocks. Both effective when administered. The second time I had an epidural was a little worrisome as it slightly paralyzed my diaphragm and made breathing a little worrisome. The part they don’t always share up front is that they don’t administer the drugs from t... |

| I am able to have quite enjoyable discussions with one of my children that may involve differing opinions but we both come away in a pleasant frame of mind. It’s lovely. It seems apparent to me that this is not a common occurrence in this world or we wouldn’t have endless wars, violence, and bitter ... |

We needed a lollipop thread. 
I lick mine at first, then crunch it towards the end usually. Sometimes I lick to the end. But lollipops are not my favorite treat so I rarely eat them.
I mean, does anyone know of a truly superb lollipop?
I’d pass on bugs. |

| Even when someone says, "you are really annoying." I realize that statement is the truth to them. "You are really annoying" is not helpful constructive criticism. It is too vague, and it targets a person rather than a specific behavior of the person. More helpful would be someth... |

| Perhaps it would help if you had a list prepared of relevant questions or topic ideas that could help you when the conversation gets sluggish. This won't really work for an in person meet up but you could memorize a few for that situation. If you try two or three of these and the other person is una... |

Whether he is aspie or not does not make it ok for him to set rules for you to follow but that he doesnt seem to follow himself.
You have been overly accomodating.
He sounds more like a narcissist. Very controlling and inwardly focused.
Take care. |
