i want my seat.

Post Reply New Topic

I have dat same problem aswell when i was at skool i would sit in da same place just cos i can sit away 4rm other ppl n have my own space.

Way to go on that. Since no one ever sat at the front of the classroom I decided that where i will sit. some times NTs would have the thought that if they sat in my place they would be smart like me. another thing that also affecyed me is that people might just take the chair itself and they thought that I would not be effected by it and just grab another, but i was almost physicaly unable ie in my computer class.

I am the same with nearly every seat.
Especially in my own house, my brother is such a pain as he still argues even though there's only one seat I sit in.

am also the same with seating,though at school and SN college classes,am was given own place and teachers would ask anyone to swap places if they sat in it,am think the reason they kept sitting in am place [at college anyway] was because am was the only one who had a spinny chair with big arms on,teachers gave it am as couldnt cope with the feel of the normal ones they had.


am hate how those who dont understand think its just about being fussy or having control.

I don't burst in tears, but I do feel awkward and "out of place" when I'm not in the seat I'm used to. It seems like every place I sit down regularly I sit in the same spot again and again, if it's available, without even thinking about it. People like to jokingly give me a bad time about it

While I don't actually remember it my Mum has a lot of stories involving me and chairs. I never broke into tears though, because I was far more aggressive than I am now.

But I can understand how you feel, even now I have my seats (mostly on the bus) and I get rather unhappy if I can't sit there.

I was like this when I was really little. Five and under. When this would happen at day care, I would refuse to sit anywhere else so what would I do? I would just stand until I got my seat. On the bus, I would complain to the bus driver someone took my seat. She did nothing so I was forced to sit elsewhere but I would move to that seat right after the kid got off the bus when we arrive at his or her house.
The grown ups must have worked on that or I did it on my own because I got flexible. I just sit somewhere else, no attitude, no uncomfortable feelings. Nothing. To me it's just a seat.

until your inmate takes it

Yeah, seating used to piss me off. Never enough places for everyone, so people would scramble for a place and I'd be the one left at the end, forced into a seat next to someone who I knew wouldn't want me there. Sure made me feel uncomfortable. And when there weren't enough desks I'd be stuck there standing up like a pillock, wondering what I'm supposed to do. Then I'd end up being shoved on the end of a desk, sharing a small amount of space with some other poor sap while I was blocking the aisles and generally being in everyone's way. Maximum suckage indeed.

i feel your pain with awkwardly wondering what to do
