Many t years ago I was on holiday with my gf in a bar and she flipped, accusing me of flirting with two women on the other side of the room who were playing pool.
As well a defending my genuine innocence I was thinking, wow I can flirt? What did I do that looked like flirting?

That works - more pudding for me! Butterscotch, please.
When 2023 started, I was teetering on the brink of coming out. So this is my first #PrideMonth - I wrote about that and shared some of my work here:
https://markonart.com/pride-2023-art/ - hope you enjoy and happy #Pride y'all!
As an #ActuallyAutistc person I take 10.000 steps a day just by making two phone calls.
When people say things like
*Just be yourself*
*You're okay the way you are*
...they usually don't expect my autism showing up like
~me obsessing over a minor detail
~freaking out over a change of plans
~talking excessively about my SI
~getting a migraine from heavy perfume, too bright light or auditory overwhelm
~not bearing to see a living soul
~having a meltdown bc of severely disrupted routines
You can be a little strange. But not *this* strange.

Birds of a feather, and all that. π
@actuallyautistic @actuallyautistics @actuallyadhd I asked my ex-wife about her ADHD and she confirmed what I thought. During our marriage, we knew she had ADHD. However, we did not suspect I had autism, or knew the terms neurodivergent and neurotypical.
At any rate, it is now confirmed: all my romantic relationships have been with neurodivergent people of various types.
Not sure what to make of that. π€
She does not see the same correlation in her romantic relationships with other people.

Men, what's keeping you from looking like this?

One con I attended had a morning session on how to meet people romantically. Around 40 in the room during self-introductions person opposite me said they'd been flirting with me for ages in the bar the previous night but I'd totally blanked them. Others nodded that they had noticed.
I DIDN'T KNOW! I thought they were just being friendly!
I now have a badge (pin) which says "Flirt blind. Make it clear".

When I did programming, that's how I worked. Intense focus and cranking out code, until I hit a wall, then go out and wander around, look at the squirrels, think of nothing, and the solution would hit me - then back in to work more.
@skybunnystanton@weirder.earth @actuallyautistic
My entire adult life, I've heard "You know he was flirting with you, don't you?" about cashiers, waiters, people standing near me in lines.
No, I don't know that. I've never known that. I've seen flirting in movies, but he didn't do any of those things. Hubs spent 6 months saying "So when are you going to ask me out?", but he was a bartender, he obviously didn't mean it. Until he told me he did.
@cadenza @doggle @actuallyautistic @actuallyadhd
Is that a thing? I mean the "get my attention before telling or asking me something?"
I drive my wife crazy by either never hearing something she says she said, or noticing she's talking and saying "wait. Start over."
She says I don't listen and should pay better attention. One of my many flaws she hates.
re: Gen Z & beyond embracing Debit Cards to cope with Economic Uncertainty. Tuesdayβs Findependence Hub.
Granted that it may be different in Canada, but I always and only use credit cards for purchases, and it helps me.
I pay the credit card bill in full when it's due - no interest charges. Essentially I'm borrowing my monthly expenses for free each month. My money can sit in the bank, untouched, till the credit card bill comes in. I make interest on my bank balance.
