Small-Scale Question Sunday for February 5, 2023

Do you have a dumb question that you're kind of embarrassed to ask in the main thread? Is there something you're just not sure about?

This is your opportunity to ask questions. No question too simple or too silly.

Culture war topics are accepted, and proposals for a better intro post are appreciated.

1/12 for me with my current partner being the 1. I’m lucky(?) in the sense that I’ve dated quite a bit but I have another regret about not marrying my previous partners. I do regret some of the ways I acted, but not that we didn’t end up together.

The one partner that may have qualified left me because I didn’t break a stated boundary, which I found stupid enough to disqualify her. Basically she told me the whole “I don’t want to do X my parents would never approve,” so I didn’t. Turns out that’s what she wanted the whole time.

Overall most people I’ve dated have been highly depressed and/or anxious, like myself. Even my current partner. I hate the modern medical distinctions and think they’re full of holes, but I do think it takes a neurodivergent person to truly bond with another one.
