friendly reminder to anyone that needs to hear it: any kind of mental handicap a person has NEVER excuses them disrespecting your boundaries. that’s just who they are as a person.

Like its one thing for someone to accidentally overstep before the boundaries are stated but i stayed with my ex for far too long because she would always say she couldnt not hurt me because of her disabilities after i begged her to respect my boundaries

exactly. if they don’t know, it could genuinely be an honest mistake. but when you have stated your boundaries and someone continues to disrespect them, a disability is not an excuse.

my little brother recently told me that there was a girl at his school in the special ed department that asked him out at the beginning of the semester and he respectfully turned her down. she then continued to stalk/harass him the rest of the semester. i had to remind him that that had NOTHING to do with her disability, and everything to do with her neglect of people’s boundaries.
