    Thank you for your messages.
    My problems are that I just got cowardly dumped by my boyfriend who is also autistic. He didn't really speak to me for two weeks when he said he wanted to and had multiple opportunities to talk to me, and then changed his relationship status without telling me as I only found out through two friends of mine. I thought I had done something wrong, but I found out that he had texted sexually inappropriate messages to other guys and I didn't even know that he was gay or bisexual. I don't have a problem with his sexuality, just that he didn't tell me. He then kept texting me to meet him but I didn't want to, which got to the point where he threatened to call me all the time until I changed my mind and called me childish when he clearly was the immature one and was not a good boyfriend in the first place. I am trying to get over it because I do not want or need him in my life, but I feel so hurt by what he has done. He claims he cares and now wants to be my friend, but he has not acted like he cares for me at all even when we were going out for five/six months. 
    Sorry for the long message. I just needed to let it out.

    Hi @Dylan246

    Good Morning!!!!!!!

    Yes I am always bad over the Xmas break as everything used to shut down. 

    I got stuck in the snow a few years ago now going to get tablets from the chemist.

    How are you today????

    Hi. Good evening! Xmas break can be tough especially when it gets stressful or you are on your own. Good for you for trying to help yourself. I'm ok though, getting ready for the Christmas holidays in Lanzarote.
