A straight autistic woman who seeks out unhealthy father figures in her romantic life has found the perfect jolly, yet mercurial older man to trigger her complex PTSD, it has been rumoured.
Sarah Harrow, 29, who seeks out partners who are at least 20 years older than her, who are approving and affectionate when they’re around but prone to long periods of abandonment and who have roomy, comfortable laps, has reportedly found “the one”.
Harrow explained: “After a lifetime of searching for the perfect toxic dadboyfriend, I’ve finally found him. He shows up once a year, puts me on his knee, tells me I’ve been a good girl, gives me gifts and then disappears to his other family in the North Pole.”
“There’s also the constant threat of being put on his naughty list,” Harrow continued. “Which is both hot and just triggering enough to keep me in a state of constant longing.”
“His name’s Nick! Isn’t he dreamy?”
“No my dad’s name wasn’t Nick,” Harrow continued. “It was Nicholas. Why do you ask?”
