social security in general has been systematically robbed and underfunded for decades now. in 2034 it will have to start paying out only 80% of what it had been paying before because the Democrats can't get GOP help in shoring up the program because the GOP is philosophically opposed to helping wor... |

sounds like you're still doing pretty well at least compared to me. but i understand how expensive things are up north. Yeah, it's all relative to cost-of-living and the fact I'm supporting adult dependents. I don't make it from pay to pay. I get paid once a month and run out of money at the two we... |

I'm also on Federal disability, meaning I get disability cash from the feds. Nor do I pay income tax. That sounds good but it means I don't get tax refunds either. I used to count on those. Getting CPPD was a much more complicated application than LTD. My workplace disability person did that paperwo... |

I'm a voracious reader of classic literature. They dissect body language down to the flick of an eyelash. They can spend whole chapters describing an expression. Then they tell you what the character is actually thinking. It's the only way I knew duplicity even existed. *imo it's way more helpful th... |

How will you know which women are NT?
Is there some sort of exam before you hang out with them?
I'm not trying to be rude about it but really, many women don't even know their neurotype. |

I think that's really interesting Fenn, and a good point. In my own case though, if someone told me my clothing wasn't appropriate I'd tell them to sod off. Maybe I earned that luxury by my age but a lot of it is just personal choice. Even when I didn't understand it was "wrong", it was my... |

It's kind of his job to help discover what works for you. You can focus on discovering what works for him. It's about learning each other.
People who focus on themselves are called selfish lovers. It's hard to find that balance. |

After I exhausted all my sick leave, I left work permanently on disability. I got paid 66% of my salary for over a decade without working. N... |

I wish there was somehow I could help. |
