  • How old is she? It can take a long time to learn to express emotions. I was terrible at it in my teens, still pretty bad at it in my 20s, and I finally feel like I am getting kinda okay at it in my mid-40s.

    Be patient. Let her know that it is okay if she cannot explain an emotion today.

    Consider the two of you keeping a diary of times that she was and was not able to express feelings. Maybe in the future at other times she can go through it and say “I feel like I felt when we wrote this entry”, or “I think this word/expression/description describes how I felt then”, or “I think this fictional character we are watching/reading is supposed to feel how I felt at this time”. Maybe it will help her learn how to explain some emotions, or least help you identify in retrospect.


    1. Consider getting a VPS to play around with to learn how this stuff works before you expose your data to the internet.
    2. Learn about how DNS works. You will create an A record (and possibly also an AAAA recordy) for your domain pointing to your home IP (or VPS).
    3. If SquareSpace does not let you set records (and will only allow you to use Squarespace-hosted services) you will need to migrate your domain to another provider. I like gandi.net.
    4. Learn how your router does port forwarding. You will forward port(s) for the calendar service from your router to your home PC. (Or learn how to do firewalls on your VPS.)
    5. Before you actually connect to it with credentials over the internet, set up SSL/TLS certificates with LetsEncrypt.

    1. Creates people and invites them to a garden party.
    2. Clearly explains the rules. The one rule. Just one. Nice and easy.
    3. People do not follow the one rule and then try to make eye contact while lying about why they broke the rule.
    4. Leaves the party and plays with ants.
