We have a w/e of car hunting. Unfortunately they're quite a few miles apart, but we've decided to make it into an adventure with sandwiches. I was going to say "outing" but it might confuse...

Any particular car you are looking for? I just love my little automatic Peugeot 208. Her name is Amelie.

We need something big enough to carry boat junk. We had a Skoda Octavia before and looking for the same again to keep it simple. I don't know that our car had a name, though Dodo would have been appropriate.

I love the name Octavia.
Skoda is a solid brand. Volkswagen`s younger Czech sister.
Good luck.

People think they're boring but I like them: not showy - just quietly stylish and reliable... a bit like me

Morning everyone
My plans for a lie in and a relaxing start to the day were thwarted by the dog using my head as a trampoline. Little shit

"Fucksake Rosie, get off your arse and go outside then!" Easier said than done.
Things get too much.
People start conversations and I get flustered, can't make eye contact and give short replies. I even get anxious on here where I can take my time and process my thoughts before replying.
I overthink or downplay any possibility that someone might be doing more than just being friendly or kind partly because I honestly can't tell and partly because deep down I'm still the shy, awkward girl that people pretended to ask out just to make their friends laugh. True story.
Even now I look in the mirror and can't see any redeemable qualities. I know I'm a nice person. But that isn't enough to make anyone want to stay. I can't magic wand myself into someone people would want and personality alone isn't enough.
Something has to give. I need to make real changes and that is terrifying. But not as much as doing nothing.
I've tried dating apps and they're all horrible. I did meet a couple of nice people but they didn't want anything serious and I still don't really know what I want, other than to not be alone anymore.
I'm writing not for sympathy or to fish for compliments or to invite randos to my inbox (please don't, you will not be replied to) but to just process my thoughts. They're much easier to figure out in front of me than rattling around in my brain.

One car viewed. I've driven past Cribbs Causeway before but we had to go in today. It's blinkin huge. Huge blinkin buildings. Part of our trip tomorrow takes us close to a mural of Leah Williamson and a pilgrimage is warranted.

Probably. I've been on a waiting list for well over a year to be assessed. Can't afford to do it privately unfortunately.
And I know a diagnosis doesn't come with a magical scroll that will give me the power to function like I want to but I'll still feel better knowing one way or another I guess.

She is!
She got me through covid with her chatty videos and by being the poster girl for England women's footie. I have a massive crush and even wrote a story that included her.
Never been to a game yet though because it'd mean huge crowds, noise, unfamiliar places, trains and all those things I dread.

I started an autie thread at Lit - nothing erotic, just a place to swap tales and stuff. Lit is thick with spectrum folks
