I’m in the process of getting the documents I need to get my temps. They should be coming in the mail within a few weeks. Then once I learn to drive I’ll be in a position to leave if I want to. Idk. I want to see if I can find a counselor or something to talk to as well.

Thank you. Yes, there’s no diagnosis but I am pretty sure he is. I just broke down in tears and spelled everything out to him and he apologized for not understanding how things were and for not being there with me, and he said it won’t happen again. The thing was there just wasn’t time last night for me to go through…

Believe me I am and I’m considering it. I need to sleep before I can handle discussing this with him though. I’ve been up for too long.

No. This was in the middle of the night so he did need to sleep but he could have done that at my mother’s house, ten minutes away from the hospital. Then he would have been close by just in case. I pointed this out to him just now and he said he agrees that’s what he should have done. I don’t know. I’ve been awake…

I just asked and he said he would.  

Yeah :(

Generally speaking he does not really “get” emotions. I don’t know why. I know he cares about me but empathy is not something that comes naturally for him.

He loves them but they are not close at all, not like I am with my family. He only sees them a handful of times a year and they only live an hour and twenty minutes away from us.

I am pretty sure Bob is on the spectrum, undiagnosed. Some emotional things he just does not understand. I have been explaining all this to him and he says he still doesn’t understand or agree but he’ll never do that again if it’s what I want. I don’t know. Empathy is just something he doesn’t naturally have and I’ve…

He just said appendectomy is so routine he wouldn’t go even if it was his own sister. Wtf

Thank you.

Thanks. Yeah, that’s what I thought. Fuck.

Need advice please. I spent the last 36 hours in the hospital because my little sister had appendicitis and had to have it taken out in the wee hours last night. My mom and sister’s long term boyfriend were the only ones at the hospital with her because we don’t have a father, and other family lives too far away to…

I find your comment confusing. LOTR was fifteen years ago, filmed in NZ. Harry Potter had poc characters. People of color existed in England even back in Downton Abbey days.

Eh, I always get a ride to work with my fiance so we spend that time chatting about the news or what’s for dinner, weekend plans, etc.

Please not Woody! Was he even that big in the 80s? I know there was Cheers but he wasn’t an A lister then, was he? Murray was, but I don’t see it. 

Oh, shit.

Oh my god, no. My first thought was Travolta.

Those are some serious brows.

LOL really? And yet somehow I manage. 90+ wpm, too.
