Re: You know you're dyspraxic when

When the person you are staying with, gets woken up by how clumsy you are, such as dropping knives and forks And when you get on the bus and get so focused on giving the correct change (as you have it, yay) you normally forget your bus ticket. The bus driver has to remind you, as you are about to wa...

Re: So I am getting an assessment

Hahahaha, oh dear, did I really just write assignment? I was actually thinking of my Uni assignment while writing this, hence why I more then likely wrote assignment, but will change it now :D which answers your question about how it was arranged. I went to the additional needs team at my uni, they ...

Thank you for your reply and honestly, it doesn't matter. Before my relationship, I sometimes got asked about relationships and I tell them what I feel and think they feel grateful for a response, which is how I feel now so thank you :) I have kind of explained why I don't want children now. I have ...

Re: A different kind of love?

Thank you for replying :) That is good that you are still friends with your ex, I strongly believe that can happen and not all relationships end badly even though you were in a bad situation with moving in together. I know he will agree with me when I say what I want but ultimately he will further d...

A different kind of love?

I was wondering what love actually means to people, I know that sounds strange but am currently in a relationship which stemmed from a wonderful friendship.

Re: Does anyone feel patronised at work?

I do not feel patronised but feel because I am quiet, (though not as quiet as I was a year and half ago) that my work colleagues (no matter how supported I do feel) can come up to me and say that I have not done the best job I could when I see people make the same mistakes but nothing gets said to t...

Re: Defying Dyspraxia

I can iron now, its actually not about the ironing, I have learnt and been shown its about how you fold the clothes. if you fold the clothes in a good way, it actually does not matter that much, but obviously still have to iron.
