When the affectionate autistic kids encounter my non-affectionate autistic kid...

Y'all, some y'all kids just wanna spread some hugs and head pats to everyone, and it's honestly so sweet. They always seem very drawn to my son though, who hardcore rejects all of it. Honestly, fair, I'm glad he has boundaries. I hope one day he likes hugs though.

When an unstoppable kid encounters an immovable kid.... 😅

To be clear, I think it's sweet ❤️

Am I the only one seeing this? 👀

If this is a fashion statement, them I'm really out of the loop and getting old.

Fashion wise, what are large hips good for?

So, I'm a small woman. I'm in my 30s. I'm 5'6" and 130lbs. I wear XS on top. I'm not curvy.

But my hips are a different story. I have to wear XL cotton underwear - no matter the style - just to be comfortable. Jeans are either too tight up top or too baggy on bottom. Dresses have to be A-line or fit and flare, or I look weird. I only wear pants with elastic bands, or skirts with elastic bands. Dresses with a zipper are a huge no go. Tops and dresses have to hit my waist just right or I'll look pregnant (my hips push out fabric in all the wrong ways).

Are there any fashionable upsides to this? I'm trying to find a reason to like them, but I'm struggling. Any tips appreciated. Maybe I can broaden my horizons more than I think (I'm hoping).

My husband was my last friend.

Isolation changes a person. I'm not sure how anyone stays sane like this, because I know I haven't been.

Oh well. Another drop in the ocean of isolation. Not much has changed.

Another 40 years of this... 30 if I'm lucky.

I don't want advice.

Does Thredup get a lot of knockoff cheap dresses of Lovestitch? Are Lovestitch dresses really that bad? What am I missing? Ngl I want the pink dress, but not if it's something that's going to look awful after a summer of wearing it. I try to pick nicer pieces that will hopefully last 5+ years.
