No, you little whiney b***h, thats not what I meant at all. I was so not lording it over people that I am married. LOL, oh hell no. You can have my marriage if you want, but wait, my husband wouldn't put up with you at all what with all that whining. The thing is, we ALL have to toughen up. The world is rough. It hurts. We will all get knocked around. To be able to stand up in it, we have to get tougher. I'm sorry that you think that everybody should make things soft and easy but thats not the case.

You got anything else to do today by any chance, or are you just gonna wait to see what I say so you can say something back?


You got anything better to do than to brag constantly and then stomp on other people to highlight your 'strength'?

A very clever way for singles to take back this day and harass all the young lovers. :D

Who is bragging????? I'm bragging cause I have a husband? Oh! Well! You are more than welcome to him. Come get him. Now. Seriously. I'm about f*****g sick of him.

And you may think I'm bragging for being "tough"? Well, you live the life I do and it's either toughen up or die. I chose to toughen up. And yes, it is a choice. It's not a fun one, or a pretty one. Nobody wants to do it. But you do it.

Some people can't really toughin'up.They are just naturally tender.Some kids will eventually punch their bully.Others will go home and kill themselves over mean texts someone sent them.
Some make adversity their b***h and others jump off a bridge.
I guess some people are rabbits in a wolf world,they can't really change that.I don't think the meek will inherit anything,certainly not the earth.Someone will take it from them.I just feel sorry for all the people at work and other places and they see people getting all this stuff and no one sends them anything.If they are already feeling down on themselves and insecure,this day really hammer it in.
I don't expect to get anything and not bothered by it,the younger crowd suffers more from that I think.All their friends going out and they have no one.


But you have to. The world wont change, society wont change. At least not in the hour and a half that the upset person needs it to. So, you have to toughen up. Do you want to live in the world, or just sit back and watch and critique it?

The old quote,"Whatever does not kill you makes you stronger," is true for some individuals.I don't think it applies to all.For some of us here being alone is no big deal,others crave a companion but have no luck finding one.This holiday maybe makes them feel like they will always be alone.Especially the very shy who have never been on a date,they see all this happening on this day and feel left out.I can remember what it was like to not be picked on the playground,it hurt at times.Im just sorry that others are feeling something similar to that.

Furthermore, your happiness doesn't depend on extraneous things such as being single on Valentine's Day. It depends on YOU. The moment you start regulating your own emotions and deciding how you are going to feel, that's the moment your emotions aren't so turbulent and you can embrace happiness much more easily.


This made me laugh. Emotional dysregulation is a common feature for many on the autism spectrum. It's not a decision people make. There are some scholars (Greenspan) who think that autism stems from a disconnect between emotional and rational thought (which begin working in tandem in neurotypicals at the age of 9 months). So telling an ASD person to cognitively control their emotions is literally something their brain may not be capable of doing.

Been there and done that. But, you yourself, a strong woman, you know. You KNOW. The world is still survival of the fittest in many instances. It's not right, but it's how it is.

It is a cold and heartless place at times.I did have to get sort of ornery to survive.Its made me mouthy. :D As the saying here goes"they'll tell you how the cow ate the cabbage."
Some people just have no meanness in them,they are pretty helpless.I think classes should be taught in school on how to deal with bullies,the bullies won't change.It would be good to teach kids to be assertive,they can carry that knowledge to adulthood.

Thats very true. And this whole "kids cant fight at school" thing really messes them all up I think.

And for anybody who thinks I'm bragging? Know what I got for Valentines? The news that my husband was out of work, herpes, and yelled at by my oldest kid.

Ninja1992, meet goldfish21. goldfish21, meet Ninja1992.


:lol:

I mean, c'mon.. seriously.. 1992? That'd make him/her ~21/22 years old... that's waaaaaay too old for me! :P


It's him. I was thinking of a steamy bromance. Here's another guy who claims to have overcome autism. You two seem to have a lot in common.


Aw, bromance. 8)

I've transparently shared what my experience has & continues to be. Articles keep coming out about specific probiotic strains missing in the guts of Autistics, gut dysbiosis being researched as a cause of Autism, probiotic therapies reducing Autism symptoms in mice etc. I've experienced the human equivalent and continue to treat myself. I'm ever nearing the stage of loading up on probiotics, but I know based on my observations of symptoms that my digestive tract is not 100% completely cleared yet so I'm continuing to work on that. Further, I have to do a little research into finding supplements that contain the specific strains said to be missing from the Autistic gut. I think I may have found one, just need to read the details and confirm. Another possibility would be people doing fecal transplants from the guts of healthy balanced individuals via sterile water solution enemas - but to perfect that with certainty would require lab testing of stool samples for specific strains of microorganisms. However, if someone knew someone they considered very well "balanced," and healthy, it would require lab testing to know that their gut was plenty more balanced than one's own and it wouldn't hurt anything to take on their bacteria & would likely benefit greatly. More gross science, but I'm just sayin'..

And IF he's made these claims somewhere I haven't read them, but IF he has, that would mean we have one thing in common - which by my books isn't "a lot."


Did I say anything about your "cure"? I was referring to your earlier sex claims. He says that it's easy for him to get laid, that he mastered pick-up artistry, that autism helped him build his body and that he's using his intelligence to overcome ASD. He's started a WP thread giving dating advice. Just look up the threads he started since joining WP today ... do I need to do all the work? Just though you might hit it off.

It's nice to see another fellow person with an ASD who has overcome the negative effects. Nice one goldfish :) by 'overcoming autism', I'm guessing that's what you mean - making it so that the negative effects barely impact you. That's what I've done.

What is thing in common you are referring to?

@Aspendos

- It is easier for me to get laid. I think I speak for most men like me when I say that when you find a girl and have sex with her, it all seems to flow, and it just feels so easy. But it's never truly easy as you obviously have to exert some sort of effort or influence.

- You can't really be a master at any skill I believe. Especially not one such as pick-up-artistry when there are soooo many variables. But I do know the 'feel' of how to get girls well enough, but I would NEVER call it mastery.

- I'm not directly using my intelligence towards my ASD. My ASD doesn't cause me much pain at all anymore, so why would I apply an aspect of myself to something I'm rather comfortable with? Instead, when I began learning about PUA I picked up and learned things very very quickly. I was interested it to a great degree, and I happen to quite smart and learn things quickly. I believe this trait of mine came from my autism; my ASD and all my experiences make me I feel like I have a unique, valuable perspective of the world that not many people my age seem to have.

- I didn't directly use my autism to become buffer. It happened because of a compulsive behaviour I had - making/crafting makeshift weaponry and pretending to drill with them. That started when I was about 10, I did it more or less every day. By 14 I was pretty buff! Will provide pictures if necessary. Now I'm bigger because of my going to the gym often. Pretty sweet :D


@jwfess

I don't have what you're describing. I am a very level-headed and genuine person; I am saying that because it is genuinely what I feel/what happened. Genuinity is one of my core values.

Oh.

By the numbers I've had more success with sex than he has.

Plus there's the problem with the fact that he f***s girls and I f**k guys, so it'd never work out.

I suppose we could still have a bromance & cuddle, though. :P

And what about those of us who are with somebody that is a douche. I actually said to my husband earler, "It's Valentines, hug me" and he said "f**k you, get away". THAT is what I have to deal with! And OMG so let that chick who was bitching about me being "tough" say anything.

It is nice to see the aspie, nice guy self pity bubble popped on this series of threads for once. Still this isnt very witty.
