Not only are there no single female Aspie women who like South Park who are in my area, there are no single NT women who like it either who go to my school.
On the other side of the coin, females need not be interested in South Park, or of the same political ideology as you for you to get along with them. Relations are not just about interests and [social and/or political] ideas; one can form an everlasting relationship for another even if they're of a totally different mindset, if they get along peacefully and they make each other happy with how they interact.
I am starting to think that religion should be banned, like it was in some of the communist countries in Eastern Europe during the Cold War. Nearly everyone I come across who likes South Park is either atheist, agnostic, Wiccan, or pagan.
South Park is how I determine whether someone is liberal or conservative. If someone watches it, they're liberal. If they don't, they're conservative.
Tim, I think you worry a lot about all these things. I know what it's like because I worry too. None of the guys I meet match up the exact criteria I have in my head, and so I don't even give them a chance. But lately I've been realizing that love isn't about criteria. If you do find someone you really love, either NT or aspie, the ideas of criteria should just fall away.
But I know it's all very easy to say, but not easy to let go of. I recently got put off a guy just because he went to Sunshine Coast Uni (I thought - not smart enough, nup.) I find myself thinking, I don't want to go out with a guy unless he's an OP1 (highest school academic ranking), witty, open minded about EVERYTHING (and I mean, everything), can be both extremely outgoing and extremely introverted (like me), is really into music, likes to talk about random stuff and is inventive and original in his conversation (can go on imagination rampages and play along), is self confident and doesn't need to be looked after (can look after me, but isn't controlling or bossy), is really nice and caring to all people and doesn't have a mean or nasty streak, is NOT MANIPULATIVE, etc etc etc.
I pretty much shut down every potential guy that approaches me within the first 10 minutes.
Do you feel better now you know you're not alone in this?
