For a stressor, I have been in job hunting purgatory for the past several months. I don't think it is an exaggeration when I say I must have applied for about 100 jobs by now. I came super close to getting hired as a delivery driver, but I couldn't master reverse driving. I'm glad that I have a good...

Hi I was messaging you all quite a bit a few years ago. Thought now would be a good time to reach back out. After a four year battle with fibroids, I had a hysterectomy at the end of May. I graduated from college on May 13th, and had the surgery 13 days later. I am extremely lucky to have had a supe...

Hi I moved back to campus a couple of weeks ago, and have met the guy in person, and he is actually as nice as I hoped he would be. I have now hung out with him twice, and we have a class together. Out first hangout in person lasted almost four hours, which I was not expecting. It started with us ju...

Yeah, given that I survived a fibroid tumor nearly killing me. My mom says that she considers me to be a pretty tough person after going through that. I'm just glad that my doctor knows to take action quickly if things begin to look problematic.

Yes it does. I still have no idea with what I want to do with my life, and like I already said, my thoughts on whether or not I want kids have been all over the place. It would depend on where I am in 7 - 10 years, with what I am doing for a living, and if I have a partner who I would want to have a...

Hello I mentioned in a couple of other threads that a couple of years ago, I had to get a huge fibroid tumor removed from my uterus after it almost caused me to bleed to death. I knew that it was very possible that the fibroid would grow back, but I thought that it would be a while. A few weeks ago,...

Hello I just wanted to say that today I began the process of legally changing my name. I have been using an abbreviation of my birth name to better align with my gender identity for the past four years, and it means a lot to me to finally be making it my legal name. It know it's going to take a whil...

I would say that the idea of being able to see him in person makes me feel excited. I can definitely say he makes me a lot happier than my previous relationship did, even though right now we are just friends. My fears are more attached to my previous relationship, and when I have videochatted with h...

Hello Making another thread since my last one was getting pretty lengthy. I haven't gotten to videochat with the guy I like for a few months due to school, but the semester and finals ended a few days ago, and we are planning on having a watch party this week. I'm pretty excited about it. Even thoug...

I felt like I never had a best friend until fifth grade. I did have friends, there were people that did like me, but I was never the best friend. There was one student that I thought was my best friend in fourth grade, but she also fed me a bunch of lies. When I look back on it, I find it really har...

Yeah, I think I would like to talk about it. I'll start out by mentioning that there was a group of kids in third grade that I thought were my friends. Instead they just tried to get me in trouble. At the end of third grade, my teacher went into the bathroom while we were all standing in line, and a...

I did end up having this conversation with my mom, and that I thought maybe she was in some denial. She says she didn't think it could be the case because I was still able to communicate my needs with her and my dad. She does seem to understand where my therapist is coming from. She also says that I...

Hello Figured I should make a new thread for this. I mentioned earlier about how my mom said she never thought I had autism because I picked up on social cues better then I did when I was little, which feel contradictory to what she said. Well, I have been talking about this with my therapist, and h...

So originally my mom was told that she was going to be able to work from home for the remainder of the school year, but has now just received an email saying that she now has to start working from the school building she works at on March the 29th. I really do feel sorry for her, but I honestly look...

We actually had that talk earlier this morning. My dad had to go to work in bad weather, and she was understandably pissed off, which caused me to break down. She said she was sorry if her mood has been upsetting me, and I did tell her she needed to be aware that her actions could affect other peopl...

When my mom is in this "vicious mode", she seems to act like the world should revolve around her, and she won't like it if things don't go her way, and she doesn't care how others feel. I don't know how to describe how it makes me feel, but one particular moment, it felt like she forgot ho...

Hey I'm worried about my mom, and she is getting on my nerves. I have said it before, and I will say it again, I love her very much, I am fortunate to have the type of relationship I have with her, but I don't know how to communicate with her right now. She has had a rough time this past week, and h...

I'm doing okay now. My parents also aren't big on Valentine's day, but they still give me presents that day, and yesterday they gave me a huge collection of Ray Bradbury stories and some Twilight Zone trading cards, so that was nice. I glad that my parents really love each other, this summer will be...

So today is Valentine's Day, and I always find myself feeling a little blue this time of year. I have done some pretty stupid things on Valentine's day when I was a kid. There were two occassions when I tried giving anonymous Valentine's to boys I liked in middle school, but they both figured out it...

I think I'm getting to a point where I am starting to like him even more. I have found myself having fantasies about him. Kissing, sex, having a future with him. Wonder if part of it is my mind feeling social interaction deprived. I haven't hugged someone who wasn't my parents since March. I wouldn'...

I finally got to hang out with him again today. He actually messaged me ten minutes after the last time I messaged you saying he didn't show up because he spent the whole day packing and preparing to move back to campus, and then fell asleep half an hour before he was supposed to meet me. Glad he ha...

Not right now. I'm still waiting to hear back from him, which may take a while. I'm okay with that, I could kind of use some space right now. I'm talking to my therapist tomorrow, and I arranged to speak with my friend who I normally talk about sex in a few days.

I want to wait until a certain level of trust is present. I would like to tell him sooner than later, but I don't feel right telling him while we still don't know each other very well.

My movie night didn't go as planned. He never showed up. My friend was still there though, and we still had a good time. My messaged my mom while the movie was playing saying that he didn't come, and this was what she said. I am sorry. Don't assume the worst, something may have come up. You can mess...

I am interested in thinking of some other virtual activities, but at the same time, old movies and TV shows are what I thrive off of, and I'm glad I found someone who appreciates them. I can talk about them for hours, but aside from that, I'm not the best at making conversation. I mentioned Twilight...
