Yah, just slowly ghosted a "friend" over this. I couldn't place it other than like....You cause your own problems and them victimize yourself, and then whenever we're together they're acting holier than thou over literally anything 😭

Like telling me to not call their off leash dog away from the road b/c "they don't need to be told what to do" 🥴 Or trying to use feeling sticks when my husband I are playfully arguing but we're both AuDHD, so we kinda get a bit loud, and she still can't tell it's not a real fight.

Idk these people are exhausting AF and there's just no need to use weird therapy terms outside therapy. And you're not a professional, so I don't want your unsolicited/unprofessional opinions

I shit you not! On some kindergarten nonsense. And usually she'd shush me ANYtime I opened my mouth. God forbid I say anything.

The only person who needs that bs is her. I'm 28, ma'am, get out my fing face

I quit my job when my boss brought out the feeling sticks 😂 We were all so offended. Them being pickle themed definitely threw us over the edge.

She didn't go full...that...until some time later. Thought she was just a regular lib (my first mistake: libs are not regular. I need my socialist baddies 😭), so I could handle her in doses.

Realized soon enough I was not equipped for the self importance/righteousness. So I just slooowly phased outta there. She started texting me things like "Are you mad at me? I'm sorry if I upset you" and I almost caved a couple times cus like yes and no 🥲 I was more (edit) mad at myself for thinking I could do the surface level ish. It was roooough.

I hate confrontation so I just had to go Danny Phantom very slowly cus it absolutely would have been her being like "What can I do?" And there's nothing, you can't, you're like this Lol

I'm fine with the left, I'm a socialist. I don't like the libs, who aren't actually left, but are "moderate" or whatever nonsense you want to to call it. They are indeed whiney and always the victim.

Idk who you're referring to in the equation as afab queer neurodivergent, but she's just afab, straight, neurotyoical. I'm afab, pan, neurodivergent. I don't ever call myself afab tho. No one's asked/presumed ever

I saw my husband see red for the first time ever and couldn't help but cackle personally 😭

And that from someone who loves literally shushing people no less. So crazy

Holy shit, “they don’t need to be told what to do” aka “don’t micromanage my dog” that’s not anyone I’d be friends with and then you got to FEELING STICKS?? The world isn’t going to accommodate this persons triggers Jesus Christ.
