Knowing my mom, she will force me to end my current relationship because I didn't get her permission to be in one.

This November will mark two years since I met my current girlfriend and we have shown no signs of slowing down.

Two years ago, we were in a class together and one day she had a seizure that scared everybody present, including me and our professor. She was treated on-site and later released.

I also have seizures and when she opened up to me about them one day when we saw each other at a nearby restaurant, I opened up to her about mine. We clicked almost immediately and went on our first date about one week later.

Mmhmm. I’m currently working 7 days a week to take home $2400/month, which is approximately break even. This will likely be the lowest earnings of the rest of my life besides once I’m a full time student again.

BUT, on the bright side, I Can work. 8)

No you’re right every man in her office and every man in the world including us is just waiting for a chance to rape women :roll:

Rap hardly ever happens in public during the day. And she said she feels safer in her office job because there’s phones. So she’s afraid at any ,in one of her fellow employees will just start raping her in the office in front of everyone else. That’s not very likely. Most men won’t rape women or let women be raped. Those who do will instead follow women home or wait until their drunk or drug them in private places. Most rape from what I understand is don by family or friends to women who are incapacitated in some form or another. Next is home invasion rape. Rape in alleyways or parks when no ones around. Rapist don’t want to get caught and are cowards. So they wait til no one else is around but them and the victim.
Work would be the worse place for that.

But I’m not judging her. We aspies have anxiety issues. I’m afraid of being mugged or attacked walking home every day, it’s not likely to happen but I’m still anxious about it. I mean I don’t go places Ill be alone. And there’s cameras on my path from work to the bus and still people around and thus not likely a mugger would do so as their chances of getting caught are high. So I get her anxiety and fear. But I don’t think most men are rapist in the waiting. People here and else where point out I’m just being anxious and it’s not a reality that’ll I’ll be mugged, but mugging happen a lot, I could be mugged so I live in fear of it. I don’t think any of the men at her work will rape her.

I wanted to leave at 18----but I had to wait until I was 20.


My friend was told to get a job or move out, he lived in a town with no job options, so he had to join the military, which his parents were super upset, worried and mad at him about. Like wtf you gave him no other choice, so it’s your fault.

Then again something tells me this law isn't enforced.



It’s not enforced and in the process of being repealed so that 16yo gay boys can legally f**k, too.


Social security payments are worse. And people get upset we need housing and other assistance to make due on 750 a month

How much money do you think you’re entitled to without earning it? :?

I don’t feel that bad for you, sly. You have less than zero interest in working on yourself until you’re capable of working longer hours. You’re content with doing as little work as humanly possible, and that’s why you’ll get very little money for your lack of efforts.

When there comes a time when you decide to work towards being able to make more money, I’ll be around to encourage you to stay the course on your path of self improvement. Until then, you won’t find me saying sly deserves more money for his willingness to do nothing for it.

I don’t blame her. I was just pointing it it’s anxiety not real.
If she said women aren’t safe at night in parks I’d agree, but at work during business hours is nothing similar to oil rig if horny men who’ve been away from home for months to year.

And it’s not why such places hire all or mostly women
Do women work at coffee places wearing swimwear because it’s safer?
I’d think a attractive young woman in nothing but a swimsuit would be at great risk especially given such places are 24/7 and have suffered repeat robbing.
It’s cause guys finds women attractive and buy more when it’s sold by attractive woman.
Mean my friends would rather buy food from a pretty girl then a fat obese man.

Sly:

My argument was one reason women choose offices over field jobs in predominantly male dominated fielda is because they offer her more safety from sexual assault.

Would you care to explain why you are proceeding as if I have claimed that a woman will be raped in an office of men?

Haven't you been warned about twisting other people's words before? They were going to ban you last time and I told them not to and to give you another chance even though I was the one who's words you were twisting and who you were mischaracterizing.

I thought you might struggle with reading comprehension and I was trying to be empathetic and forgiving.

What kind of "work?" I couldn't handle a full-time customer service position either.

I currently work 3 to 4 days a week because washing dishes is very physical, and I get nasty rashes from being wet all the time.

And as for sex, it shocks me how most women dont have a clue as to male needs and male sexuality. How many times have I had to explain, very slowly, to some woman online that if her husband is like most guys, he will probably never loose interest in it, and it cant just be shut off and will not go away when he reaches a certain age. He is not an animal for wanting it, he is not unreasonably demanding either. He is a normal guy with a normal drive, and a reasonable expectation of having regular sex with the woman he supports and loves. From a Darwinian POV he is totally justified in seeking it elsewhere too.


This is why many heterosexual people are now accepting that traditional marie and monogamy are failed experiments in human behaviour & rather than divorce are changing things up to being monogamish in some sort of open relationship much like many couples in the gay community.


The problem as I see it is that the women still want a traditional provider man, but they do NOT want to be the traditional wife. Its a package deal IMO.

Monogamy comes from people following a religion where the views of women and childbearing and family are based on an ancient tribe of nomads in which your eldest son inherited everything you had, so you had to be damn sure he was in fact your biological offspring. That's why virgins are seen as magical and marriage had to be monogamous. Its not natural for primates, I can certainly tell you that.

Oh well. As you would say, HETEROSEXUAL ISSUES.

HistoryGal, thanks for your support, but what are you protecting me from? I don't care if this bunch of losers - I'm not naming anyone, but you know who you are - wants to lie about me.


Goldfish is not a troll. And I say this certainly not agreeing with him on everything. You don't name names because its very much against forum rules. If you did, at the very least the mods would delete the post. You could also get warnings and etc.
