Besides, I love you guys too much to defect from WP. :heart:


Awww....right back at ya, Isabella. I feel the same way about everyone here too.

I can't even fathom how I survived without WP! It astounds me that I've only been on here for a year, because the feelings of community and support have literally changed my life. (And a neurodiverse life is difficult to change, as we all know!)
((Hugs to all and especially Booya -- I miss you!))

I have been here almost two years. Isabella, you have definitely contributed a great deal in the year you've been here and have been a valuable, supportive member.

They're only friendly to you because they want your money. :lol:

I'd rather have one true friend than a million fake friends who are only friends with me because they want something.

This is true and I know it, but at least they're friendly.

Most of my best friends are nerds, geeks, ham radio operators, and players of Dungeons & Dragons. :D

Most of the people who deliver my pizzas, was my cars, and mow my lawn seem to be NTs. :wink:

I'd tip well all the time simply because I understand how hard it is working as a waiter or waitress.

I'd choose the money. :money:
Although these days, a million dollars barely makes a person rich. But it would be more than what even most NTs would ever hope to have.

Isabella,

I just read your response. It is very reassuring. I will be two years here in five days. I knew I was getting close. Hopefully, I will have more good news to report in my updates.

This is an easy one to answer. I'd rather get a million dollars. I have no interest in being normal, whatever that is.
