MR20:

Do you live near Philadelphia/New Jersey/even Washington DC or New York?

It sounds like you're very depressed and could use an in-person friend. When I've felt that depressed I certainly could. Well I feel that depressed now actually.

Hmm. Well are there any autism/Asperger's groups for adults in your area? Like the one called GRASP?

There aren't any Autism/AS support groups in this area. The mental help group in this area that I went to in my childhood and teens is going out of business. I was probably too old for it anyway.

hypothetically I would be willing to go out with any guys I can hold some form of conversation with and am comfortable around though lately I am more worried about trying to make friends in general not really ready to attempt any dating with anyone but in my opinion....the bathing should probably happen more often but I am not a hygeine freak by any means but other then that I don't care about peoples economic status, I am not that into anime or video games but I do enjoy those on occasion. I am more into rock and metal music then that stuff.

I've been struggling with bathing my whole life. It's hard to get motivated to do it unless I'm going somewhere, especially in the winter because we have no hot water.

I'll be completely honest.

I don't think 1, 2, 4 and 5 pose much of a problem. As dumb as you may think you are, you seem to be able to write quite well. And, lots of people are bad at math- myself included. As much as you feel like you have no prospects, it's never too late to get an education. If you are in the States, you can get your GED and go to college. Depending on where you live, you can go to free classes to help you prepare for the GED.

I grew up pretty poor too, so I certainly wouldn't judge you for that. Video games are sweet- I'd come over and play with you. I bet you could get better at conversation with practice.

The only thing that would really bug me is the bathing thing. I am pretty sensitive to smells. I know it's very easy to fall into a rut, and when you feel bad and hopeless about yourself, it's easy to forget to take care of yourself. This might sound silly, but if you make it a priority to bathe at least every other day, you WILL start to feel better about yourself. I bet you are not as ugly as you say. Beauty is a subjective thing anyway.

You are only 24. You are so young! It's not too late to make something of yourself.

You people are liars. There's no way any of you would want to be bothered with me. From my real life experience, it seems you people are blowing smoke up my ass.

I mean I haven't bathe in 3 months and I fungi growning on me! No one would hang out with me in public, I'm a bum and I would make them look bad in front of everyone.

It would be even worse with women. I'd get treated worse then how I was in my teens, where I was made fun of constantly by those whores because of how my face looked and how stupid I was. I've never kissed a girl and haven't so much as hugged a girl my age in like 8-9 years. Even if I wanted to date, what qualities do I have to attract women? I know most of them like to brag about who they're going out with. lol would who would brag about me?

Let's see:

They like strong-minded, mentally-tough men. I'm neither

They like for men to be charming and interesting. I can't hold a conversation if my life depended on it and I have the charisma of a tree.

They like men that are good looking and that practice basic hygiene. I'm hideously ugly and I haven't bathe in 3 months, nuff said.

They like men that are smart, educated, and have prospects for a good future. I'm stupid, I have nothing more than a 5th grade education, and I'm poor. Needless to say I have no future.

See? I have nothing to offer anyone. I'm a useless special ed bum who will spend the rest of his life alone. Why should I even be alive?

No response? Yeah that's what I thought. You people know everything I said was true and you can't debunk it with your "optimism"

No, it's just that no one knows you in person, and we can't judge you very well by your extremely pessimistic posts. :P

My Rebuttal!:

- I like mentally-sensitive people who see all the sides of an issue. Lots of people do.

They like for men to be charming and interesting. I can't hold a conversation if my life depended on it and I have the charisma of a tree.

- Interestingness doesn't require a lot of talk or social suaveness. The fact alone that you used the phrase "charisma of a tree" for me negates your claim that you have the charisma of a tree.


They like men that are good looking and that practice basic hygiene. I'm hideously ugly and I haven't bathe in 3 months, nuff said.

Like other people said, it's kind of hard to argue over your looks over the internet but I guess the most truthful thing I can say is - forgive me for continuing my habit of injecting Lady Gaga lyrics into posts but - "I'm beautiful in my way, cause God makes no mistakes" and this goes for everyone including you.



Not bathing in three months can be attributed to depression and a living situation that works against you and can be changed in literally a day. I am not implying that you have the energy to do that TOday, but it's not a permanent state. The opposite. Anyway how long you have or haven't bathed in is no measure of your lovability. You are not some kind of leper!


They like men that are smart, educated, and have prospects for a good future. I'm stupid, I have nothing more than a 5th grade education, and I'm poor. Needless to say I have no future.

Education matters nothing to me and many other people. You are obviously very smart. It doesn't matter what grade you got to. You do have prospects for the future. Like someone else said you can get a G.E.D. and if you want go to college or even do things that don't require that kind of qualification. It depends on your interests.

I realize how much being poor has hampered your life so far but it's not a permanent state. You have suffered from poverty but you are not an Intrinsically and Permanently Poor Person.

My experience online tells me that someone whose nickname consists of a string of letters, followed by numbers, is likely to be a troll. Especially if they had something extraordinary in their OP. Please prove me wrong. Thank you.

I don't have to prove anything to anyone on this site. No one is forcing you to read or post in this thread.
