CONTENT CREATOR SPOTLIGHT: Connor Tomlinson

 

Connor Tomlinson, age 26, from Atlanta, Georgia, known for being on the Netflix reality show Love on the Spectrum.  Connor's debut on the show started on season 2.  During season 3, Connor had more time to shine which is probably what gained him popularity online.

Connor lives with his mom Lise and step-dad Tony Smith, and brothers and sisters Ben, Jack, and Anna Tomlinson.  Connor is currently dating Georgie Harris.

Today, I would like to talk about how much I love Connor as a content creator in the autism community.   I've watched Connor's seasons on Love on the Spectrum, and I'm pleased to say that he's one of my favorites on the show.  I've admired his charm as well as his growth from season 2 to season 3.  His mom is probably my favorite parent on the show.  I love how she is supportive with Connor's endeavors and how patient she is with him when he is overreacting over certain topics that they are discussing.   Connor has grown so much since his season 2 debut.  It seems as though he's gained some confidence and it shows.  



One of the things I love about Connor is his relationship with Tanner Smith, who is also on Love on the Spectrum.  Connor's mom and Tanner's mom host a podcast called Talk to Me Sis.

I wish nothing but the best of luck to Connor Tomlinson in his endeavors.  Thank you Connor for the funny one-liners you gave us in season 3.  Can't wait to continue to watch you grow on season 4!  Good luck with your princess!

What Can I Control?

Image
  What is control?  The  psychology definition of the word control is a person's ability or perception of their ability to affect themselves, others, their conditions, their environment or some other circumstance. Control over oneself or others can extend to the regulation of emotions, thoughts, actions, impulses, memory, attention or experiences.   As an autistic individual, control can be a hard concept to manage.  Here's the thing, we have a realm of what we can and can't control.  Think of reacting to your emotions like reacting to the weather, but with a proper balance.  I don't like the snow, especially when it is dangerous.  I can't control how much or when it snows outside.  HOWEVER, I can control how I react to the snow.  I can be mad OR I can be prepared.  I can go out wearing shorts and a tank top and risk freezing my butt off OR I can wear my warmest set of clothes so I can regulate the warmth in my body that the w...

The Difficulty Of Adult Relationships + Being Autistic

Image
  I stated a couple days ago that I was dry on topics to write about.  Today, that changed a bit.  I have been contemplating on what to write about for the last couple of days.  I have had the unfortunate chance of being faced with a difficult moment in one of my relationships with one of my friends.  This caused me to think about the complexity of being an adult and having autism and how those come into play.   When you have a disability and that disability is autism, you have the typical social and communication challenges.  Now, add the complexity of being an adult.  Everyone knows that when you're an adult, you go through different kinds of relationships such as romantic and platonic.  This is a normal concept.  I'll say this: I've never been in a romantic relationship at all.  I've only been on three dates.  My last date was January 2019.  I've been single my whole life (27-1/2 years). That being said, I've gone ...

Being a Friend vs. Being Friendly: A Neurodivergent Struggle

Image
  Have you ever met someone and thought "oh, they're being nice to me! I should be their friend, and have it not work out?"  Honestly, same.  Being autistic and neurodiverse, it can be hard to identify if I should be friends with someone or friendly.  Here's a little secret I've learned in the 27 years of my life: it is OKAY to not be friends with EVERYBODY!! --sometimes, people aren't looking to make friends or they're not interested in being friends with you and  THAT'S OKAY !!   As much as we want to be friends with everyone, this isn't possible.  Seems rude, but sometimes if we push ourselves to be friends with people, it's not going to be in our favor.   What we can do, is be NICE  to others or just be friendly to them.  This doesn't mean we're best friends.  It just means we are respectful and kind to them. But Alyssa! How can I tell if someone is being my friend or not? Good question! I'm glad you asked!  Sometimes,...
