hey reminder that if a partner doesn’t want to personally seek out more relationships than their partner something isn’t necessarily horribly wrong. some people are very content in themselves so seeking other people all the time is an actual effort. some of us are just autistic. i like hanging out with my partner’s friends! i am not lonely when my partner isn’t around or is busy. i am very happy with myself and actually forget to interact with people most of the time because for me it’s usually an effort or obligation. with my partner it ISNT, i actually love and remember without difficulty to communicate and be around them!! that’s how i knew i wanted to be committed to this person. when i was single there wasn’t anything wrong with me either. i just get comfy in my solitude, which is something allistics could see as a gift rather than a curse, but they won’t..
(I assume this is in response to this post?)
You know what, that's fair. A situation where someone is comfortable in solitude isn't the same as a situation where someone has a constant/frequent need for companionship but is only willing to take it from one other person, and it's the latter I was thinking of. I didn't specify, and that's on me.
