| Alright, to be serious for a moment, I don't think of myself as neurotypical. However, I don't think I'm autistic. In some ways, I am socially adept. In others, I am woefully awkward. I have friends. I can make small talk just fine. I understand social boundaries. One time I successfully pretended t... |

Not much to tell on that front. Early days. Still, I hope something comes of it. I haven't been on a date in ages. |

| ^I'm kind of ashamed that despite living in this country for 45 years, I know very little about anything outside the 'south'. My entire life has been lived along the south coast and it's pretty good, really. But I've never even visited most of the northern counties. I've no idea what it's like up t... |

| Nope. I mean, abstaining from dating, sex with men, marriage and having children doesn't necessarily mean you're having sex with women. Celibacy is a thing. That's true. Political celibacy is more accurate. Thank you for correcting me, that was a foolish oversight on my end. That phrase, though, is... |

| Yeah that's scandalous I didn't know about that 2014. Still, Volkova insists that she's "not against gays." It's just that she wants her son "to be a real man, not a (slur)." Also, she has "many gay friends," and she believes that "being gay is still better than m... |

| Oh! I was wondering why I kept seeing people mention 4B (they didn't provide much context) on Reddit. I seriously need to catch up on world affairs. OK, and the whole - your body, my choice - seems to be a reappropriated phrase. Originally from the late 60's, it now seems to have resurfaced as an an... |

Let's say Amy has a job and she has to wake up at a certain time to commute to work. Is it Amy's decision to wake up at that ti... |

| 2 years of searching only to find a temporary Christmas job? I appreciate your optimism in the opening post, but damn, this seems a little disappointing? The last couple of years have been rough, to say the least. I was seriously starting to think I was unemployable. My current situation isn't wher... |

| What kind of job? Retail. Gardening supplies and furniture. How are your coworkers getting along with you? We get along fairly well so far. I feel like I can relax and be myself around my co-workers (whilst still being professional of course). It's a nice change of pace. My last workplace was quite... |

After almost two years of endless applications and interviews, I finally have a job.
If that isn't worth celebrating, I don't know what is.

| ^ Honestly I'm surprised it existed at all as a diagnosis. I very rarely meet people who have heard of it. My dad is what I would consider textbook dyslexic but there weren't any available resources to him growing up (pretty rough and underfunded area) so he was never formally diagnosed. There were ... |
