When was the last time you asked someone to go on a coffee date?
What does asking a person out for coffee have to do with one’s biological age?
It was back in 2017. I thought the year would be a fresh start since I was going back to college for the first time in years and I had someone on this forum (Alliekit) cheering me on but my hopes were dashed.
I meant that because I missed out on so many milestones in my developmental years that my remaining years are set in stone.
You can think that if you want to because it absolves you from needing to bother putting forth any effort, but not trying since 2017 suggests to me that failing to try and make adjustments as needed is the real problem here.
No one’s life is “set in stone.” People can grow and change throughout their lives whether they’re neurodiverse or not. Saying otherwise suggests laziness and an unwillingness to try.
You can’t get a coffee date because you haven’t tried hard enough.
