    Emotional disconnection to pet - to keep or surrender

    thank you. Yes i agree. Thats the main reason I couldnt give Lucy up. I think I need to learn how to be independent with a dog. The things i struggle with never bother my husband. My biggest struggle is feeling guilt by leaving her home on the weekends or like last might, we got home from work...

    Emotional disconnection to pet - to keep or surrender

    to Alone not lonely: I find your very first paragraph excessively rude. I dont think there was any call for that and you could have probably just left that out. Skimming through the rest of your response we already do all that or have tried. I got another dog, not out of stupidity as you plainly...

    Emotional disconnection to pet - to keep or surrender

    I also forgot to mention that my time at home feels like its always around the dog. She two and wants to play all the time. I want to start working on my art and start a side business so I can stop working at an office and can work for myself. I dont feel like I can give any or as much time to...

    Emotional disconnection to pet - to keep or surrender

    hello - My husband and I have been together for about 10 years now (married 4). Two years after starting our relationship we bought a dog, Lucy, who was 3 at the time of adoption.

    Completely absurd questions that NTs tend to ask

    Not a question, but I can't stand when I am explaining something to someone ans they respond with "right" or "yeah". Makes it sound like they are agreeing that they already knew what I was telling them, even when we started the discussion with them admitted they weren't filled in on a matter...

    For Aspie Women! "10 Traits of Female Aspies" Video

    I related to feeling like we are ourselves, but at the same time we aren't really ourselves. Self-identification. I struggle a lot with being true to myself and being fake that sometimes it crosses or merges and it confuses me. So much to the point I have had to delete instagram because I...

    Perpetual Adolescence

    My parents divorced when I was 19 and in college, still living at home. When they divorced my mom was living in another state and so my dad basically kicked me out of the house. He said " You are 19 now, better start acting like it". So, I moved into a fraternity house with my boyfriend (husband...

    Finally finding success working in people's homes

    Glad you found something you enjoy :) I too have issues staying at a job for more than one year. The one job I had for two years, at the year mark I switched departments so it was like a change for me. Ever understand why it is hard for us to keep jobs longer than a year? I can't seem to...

    Anybody ever get extreme anger?

    Could it be they didn't know you have autism? A lot of people don't know about HFA or how to pick those people out from a crowd.

    Laughing at 'the wrong time'

    I had a similar situation at work Monday. We found out someone from the team's boyfriend passed away, so we had a group meeting to be told about this. Everyone started crying and I was the only one just standing there unphased. Sounds mean, but I did not know the person so I was not sad. Someone...
