@Shaz51 aww nice, you still close with your cousins? I'm only close with one of mine these days - they also happen to be nonbinary and neurodivergent (although, we both think our WHOLE FAMILY is ND teehee) so we get along famously!
It's been kinda warm here today but we got a nice cool change! Hehe jealous? 😋
Ooh which Wonder Woman movie?

@Shaz51 I was born in NSW, then we moved to Melbourne, then Canberra. We then moved to Geraldton and stayed with grandparents, moved a couple of times whilst in Gero then moved to Perth and stayed with mums' uncles until she was offered a Homeswest house where we lived until I was 18. I moved to Kalgoorlie, then moved back home when I caught my ex fiance cheating on me. Spent many years in Perth until I was offered a job In Broome, then when the job finished I moved back to Perth.
I hate Perth and as soon as I can I will move away. Nothing good has ever happened to me in this craphole.

Oh neat @Shaz51!!
Happy to share my thoughts - do you have an example of a time you've been corrected and it has left you feeling crappy?

Ohh @Jynx
It just seems to be over anything. I get that way I don't feel like saying a word because of the correction , seems like he is just waiting to say something
@Healandlove , wondering weather your husband corrects you during the day ?

Curious if you have spoken to him about it at all @Shaz51?
Sometimes, I know with my ADHD, I will hear someone make a mistake (in their grammar or something for instance) and I think I'm being helpful by correcting them because well... I always like having people tell me when I'm wrong, cos it's how I learn! But I realised over time that not everyone feels that way, so I have kinda shifted my perspective a bit - where if someone makes a mistake now, if I still understood what they meant then they successfully communicated, no correction needed!
He may think he's being helpful!

@Shaz51 do you think because you know it's coming from a good place, it is making it difficult to want to talk to him about it? Cos uhhh I know the feeling lol
