But also super strong. He won't want to mess with me then!
I suppose. All the anecdotes I've heard from you doesn't make it sound as if she's on the autism spectrum, though. Though I suppose that's why it's a spectrum.
I mean, humans do the same thing. I remember when I was being bullied someone came to my defense I lashed out at them because I thought they were also going to join in on the bullying.
I don't doubt that I made the right call. I just still think there's a possibility that he wasn't full of shit and that possibility makes me feel bad, but I wouldn't change the way I reacted and I still won't if I were in the same situation today.
I suppose that was lucky in that case, but it still makes me nervous that it's so easy for people to access a gun. What if the guy also had a gun? What if the guy had a friend who also had a gun?

I wish I could pick up a dryer u,8
Well, we'll see when her test result comes back. We went out of town to a doctor to get her tested for Autism.
I guess we'll never know. But maybe he did find someone to help him 8u
Then you'd better shoot first and hope they miss xD
I don't see a problem if someone owns a gun and uses to the right way.
But I'm from Texas where owning a gun is a normal thing.

Me too.
Okay. Keep me posted. If you're comfortable with it. If you aren't, I understand. But I am interested. I guess I feel it a bit personally because my mother took me to get tested for autism when I was a kid, and I came back negative. She's treated me like there was something wrong with me so I feel a bit uncomfortable with people jumping to autism for being not "normal".
Yeah. Owning a gun around here is not normal at all so it feels a bit weird to hear about it. When I took taekwondo, I was taught that if I were ever attacked, to fight back just enough to get an opening to run away and to run to a populated area so that I would be less likely to be targeted. If I were in such a situation, I think I would probably start calling the police on my phone and hope that discourages them. Or warn them I'm going to drive over them and start my car. I mean, if I'm in my car, I'm technically in a weapon already even without a gun.

Ah, I don't mind sharing the results with you 8u
My sister actually told us once she thinks she may be Autistic.
So we talked to her doctor and he set up for us to get her tested, but COVID hit and we weren't able to go until the other day.
I was called Autistic once, but I don't think I am.
I think I'm just someone with some symptoms, but the symptoms can easily be explained by my mental illness and the fact I don't care for people much irl xD
Yeah, but people think different in situations. If you were 8 months pregnant and a man was about to kill you, you may act differently.
Cuz it's not just you - it's you and your child.
It actually comes up a lot with people and tragedy with grieving.
Everyone grieves different and reacts to tragedy differently.
Like when someone isn't a sobbing mess on camera, people are like "THAT'S SUSPICIOUS!"
I found my Saya and Kiri dead. With Saya, I said "Saya, get up, girl!" and when I touched her I knew she was dead. I calmly walked out and told my sister to go get our mom and tell her Saya was dead.
Like I expected me to break down instantly, but I didn't.
When I found Kiri, I stood up and walked to my aunt's house to tell my mom and I started somewhat hyperventilating and said "Kiri's dead."
And when we went back home, I fell to my knees and started sobbing and screaming.

Okay, if she was the one to bring it up, it makes me feel better. Thank you.
I've also got some traits. I'm really good at focusing on things I'm interested in, but if I'm not interested, I won't work hard on it. I also zone out a lot in my own little world. I'm also easily overwhelmed by too much stimuli -- unexpected touches, loud noises, strong odors, etc.
Aah, I don't even want to think about it. I think I might be more afraid of getting pregnant than of getting potentially mugged or kidnapped.
So same person and different reaction to similar situations. That's really interesting. Thank you for sharing. And it's really a good point. But I still think there are things that I would think up before I think up going for a gun. Probably because it's not really something that's accessible here. But still. When a gun is not an option, I think people will still think of other ways of defending themselves.

I can't stand loud noises and that's apparently a huge sign.
Who LIKES loud noises >Bu
Yeah, I've never wanted to be pregnant. Seems really horrific and honestly, giving birth scares me xD;
Yeah, Saya's death came out of nowhere so I think I was in shock kinda.
With Kiri, I knew she was old and her time was soon so it was expected.
But Saya was the youngest and she was fine and, a little sick, and then dead.
Stab 'em in the eye with your heel u8

People who are into loud music? From what I understand, introverts are easily overwhelmed and draw away from stimulation while extroverts are under-stimulated and thus seek out extreme stimulation such as extreme sports, crowds, and loud music.
Right? I can't think of it without feeling panicky. Let's talk about other things.
I thought Saya was older than Hyde. But that does make sense. It always hit harder when you aren't expecting it.
From inside the car? And lol I don't ever wear heels. I was dropped on my ankle while rock climbing and now I sprain it super easy. So I avoid heels.

Well, I do crank my music up loud. But other than that, loud sounds are obnoxious.
I try hard to be as quiet as possible.
Unfortunately, my family isn't the same Bu
Kiri was the oldest, then Hyde, then Saya.
I think Saya was a year or two younger than Hyde.
So she would have been maybe...8?
We have a picture of Hyde with my sister when she was a toddler so they're close in age and Saya wasn't born yet.
Yes >8u
Well, put some in the car for weapons \u8</
Then people will be like "What are those for if she never wears them 8u"
STABBING PEOPLE IN THE EYE YOU FOOL uB<

I only crank up my music if I'm doing loud chores. Otherwise, I'm perfectly fine listening to my music quietly.
Wow, she always sounded like the mature, older dog.
lol I don't think it'll be very effective in my hands and I think putting them on to kick people with would take too long.

I know I like to crank it up in the car. When someone turns it down, it irks me. I noticed that my dad is the same way when we were riding in his car. My mom turned the radio down and he said "Don't touch my radio >BU"
No, she was just...anti-social xD;
She didn't like being petted much or being around people, but at the same time she kinda showed signs of separation anxiety.
You'd be surprised 8u
