Since autism in females presents differently, we need a place to discuss our own issues and triumphs dealing with Autism.

This is a safe space, no mean, hateful, racist, etc stuff here.
Men are welcome as long as they are respectful of our space. They should know our struggles too!

Don't condense, give us that novel. That's what this thread is for!
We are a stray cat family too!
I think if I talk to much I can become overbearing or appear self-centered. I worry too much about what others think and perceive me as which in itself could be a special interest I imagine.
Stray cats are the best! My partner's cat after two years is now finally fond of me. I am usually good with cats so I just gave her space, would give 1-2 pets here and there when about to give her food or water when she seemed open to it but not that often because she would try and bite and swat. But now she honestly won't leave me alone some days and is very needy. My partner even seems jealous sometimes I think because all the animals now love me best. Which I don't feel sorry for, being their #1 rocks.
I feel that way too but we want a safe space where people can be themselves. If you want to post a book then do it!
We also have 2 foster fails and the first one bonded with my husband so much it's crazy. I've never seen a cat act like that. She's the only one he really likes because he doesn't bond with anyone, but me I guess, and now her. I will admit I am jealous but it's of the bond itself because it's so interesting to watch. She does this weird backward dance when he comes to pet her. She would spend the day on his shoulders if he let her. She's always getting up there even if he's busy. Of course she's always in his face when he sits down, and has to be on him all the time. She even gets mad at me when I get hugs and kisses. That's her affection not mine!
