Blunt is my specialty :P

But seriously, when people hinge their entire lives on events inflicted by them by a handful of people...I get impatient :x



Tim...sadly enough it may be time to leave her behind and move on :( If she's dropped off your radar for so long, it's not a good sign. It's such a pity she won't even give you the courtesy of letting you know why! It's been so long...the chances of things being fixed get less and less.

If I were you I'd try and move on, as difficult as that's going to be. You must be hurting pretty badly...but I believe there's gotta be someone else out there that will honour and respect you as the lovely guy you are :)

It is very upsetting because she was the type of person that I thought I was going to spend the rest of my life with, based on the fact that we virtually had everything in common. And I didn't even care that she was 10 years younger than me, despite my preference for people closer to my age.

That could be a major player in the problem...as people get older, long-term relationships become more important. For her, it may have been a little less important...a little less serious. I'm finding a similar issue in my relationship actually, but to far less a degree.

It's unfortunate when things fall to pieces with someone you have almost everything in common with. It's rare to find someone like that!

I dunno. It sounds like there was something really special going on there. :( You never know, it may come right...I wouldn't completely write it off yet...but keep your eyes and ears open for other options I'd say, just in case things have gone sour.

I can't stop thinking about her. Where else can I find another Aspie with which I have nearly everything in common?

There were two other Aspie women who had the same interests and beliefs, but they both have boyfriends.

I agree, but I never thought I would be tricked by another Aspie.

And it appears that she has once again entered a long period of being offline.

Why Tim??? People are people rather they are aspie or not. I could tell you some horror stories of some nit wits I've hooked up with, and I felt really stupid that I fell for their lines. One guy I broke up with because he cheated on me, SEVERAL TIMES, walks into where me and my sister worked, and made a crude sexual comment to her infront of my co-workers who knew I dated him. Then he goes and tells my mother that he and I had sex. So NOT TRUE. I was mortified, but my response was, either hes a liar, he doesn't know what it is, or ....he was so boring I don't remember it. The first of course is whats actually the truth. He was a marine,my dad was a marine, there's suppose to be some commeraderie there, not with this guy. You expect more loyalty from a woman who is aspie as she should be more understanding, but really Tim, is that how people are????? I don't always see that, look at neighbors fighting nieghbors,relatives fighting relatives,people fighting their own race. There's good and bad in people. Some choose the bad,some choose the good. You unfortunately fell, like I did, for the wrong person, move on, she's not worth your aggrivation.

Well, I'll say this about aspies, at least from what I've noticed anecdotally... we seem to be more forgiving than your average lot.

I thought she would be perfect for me because (a) she was willing to do a long-distance relationship--another Aspie woman would easily turn me down because I didn't live within 50 miles of her, (b) she had the same interests and beliefs as me--and while I have come across many AS females with the same interests and beliefs, very few are single and looking, (c) she had a high sex drive like me--finding an AS female who is single, yet not asexual, is virtually impossible.

And my chances of finding one who is closer to my age (this woman was 10 years younger than me), who won't abandon me, with the above-mentioned characteristics, are pretty much zero.

I finally heard from her a few days ago. Unfortunately, she had found someone else.

Because she left me hanging for over a year, I will NEVER forgive her for this (and normally, I am a very forgiving person). And she was the only Aspie woman who lived anywhere remotely near the college I will be attending this fall (she would have been about 150 miles from me).

She was one of only three Aspie women who was willing to do a long-distance relationship (the other were my ex-girlfriend, who lived in Minnesota, and a woman in Vermont)--and the only one of which I had anything in common with.

I just want to take my own life right now.

Tim

calandale, ditto dude.... I'm completely forgiving..., but, you know, those on the 'trum are quite hard and stagnant in their mindset.

Tim,

No, it won't! There are no other Aspie women who have the same interests and beliefs as me.
