    Lost my final grandparent today

    My grandmother was my last grandparent and she passed on today. She was 92 years old and lived through many events throughout the last and current centuries. She instilled a love of reading in me and taught me to think critically. I will be grateful to her for the rest of my life and love her...

    Past determining my future

    But if I let it go, does that mean I have to give up on wanting a relationship?

    It’s 2026 now. I fear time is running out for me.

    Empowerment

    I definitely respect King Harald V. He’s an actual leader, not the raging narcissist posing as a leader in charge of the US.

    Empowerment

    He’s not asking a question. He is just showing respect for his country.

    How can I have a more positive year for 2026?

    I really hoped 2025 was going to be a better year than 2024 was but I once again had to go through disappointments and losses. I feel like I have multiple injuries or infections but I can’t afford the treatments for them and the maladies just persist. How can I have a more positive and...

    Past determining my future

    “The best revenge is living well.” “You need to love yourself first.” “It’ll happen when you least expect it/aren’t looking.” “As long as your alive, anything is possible.” “Women settle down in their 30’s.” Things I’ve been told historically and still get told today. Sadly, my life is...

    I feel like a loser.

    My parents beat me over the head with their ideals but they aren’t happy people themselves. My father leaves me alone these days, though. I just wish my mother would do the same. She’s the one most responsible for making me feel like a lesser person. I don’t let her guilt trip me anymore, though.

    I feel like a loser.

    I know it’s not a healthy way to think but I really do feel like a loser. It doesn’t help that is what I was often called by other people in my teens. I know people at work who are much younger than me, one who is also on the spectrum, who already have graduated college/university, are in long...

    Past determining my future

    Usually when I’ve asked women if they wanted to go out with me, the responses have been “I am too busy.” and “I don’t think my boyfriend would like that.” Women in the culture I live in also tend to regularly have boyfriends as well as marry early. This has really stacked the deck against me.

    Any Marilyn Manson fans here?

    I prefer Ministry, KMFDM, PIG, and Godflesh. I do appreciate the fact Manson is influenced by the musicians in those bands, though.

    Past determining my future

    Being an outsider in what’s supposed to be my culture (Central Texas Christian) has also been extremely difficult. However, even when I used to buy into Christianity, I just couldn’t get excited about church services, American football games, drinking beer, giant trucks, guns, and country music.

    Past determining my future

    Things that I’ve been suggested but things didn’t go the way I hoped for them: Volunteering, attending a Universalist fellowship, speed dating, going to gyms, attending college courses, and working for the public.

    Past determining my future

    I am short on time currently but I can say this. What seems to work but only temporarily: Attending Meet Up events or other social events through social apps like Discord.

    I worry that all the years of trying and not succeeding were wasted.

    Still waiting for a first date..

    I still encounter people who treat prayer like demanding a genie to grant their wishes and they tend to be very unhappy people.

    Getting more socially isolated

    I’ve been really feeling despondent for the last few days. I really wish there was a way out of my situation.
