I'm too much of a coward to say anything as well. It would just make me more depressed to get confirmation that they don't like me back.


I agree with pretty much everyone else. You seem like a really nice person, and are definitly interesting.

If you're like me, you don't know what to say unless you're already talking about a specific thing-but on this forum, people are going to understand that better than other places.

I think you should send a PM to them-heck, are they already on this thread? Just don't leave the site no matter how it turns out. Believe me, you are NOT alone about this kind of thing. I have the same kinds of feelings as you do (and...okay, I'd probably be pretty scared to actually contact someone like that unless I could make up an excuse why...)

But anyway, worst case they're either mean to you or don't contact you back. If the former, then you really don't want to know them anyway, if the latter, well, they might actually be scared too-it might not mean they don't like you (and even if it does, lots of people on here DO like you).

I can see what you mean about the odds being even worse than for a straight person though! Most of the time I feel like I'm hopeless, and I'm straight. I wish someone was obsessed with me :D

Anyway, just don't leave here, whatever happens. Oh, and DON'T DRINK! I saw you mention that in a post. I've heard that alcohol can make social stuff seem easier (I don't know as I'm never going to start), but that's fake, and is just going to lead to even worse problems.

Go for it Sopho you r not proposing to them just say hi, i like your posts, fancy swapping email ads - just like you would to a fellow worker pal at the end of a shift. Its no big deal dont worry about it, people swap emails all the time.

It is hard to find people locally, especially if you are at all different. But I have known plenty of straight NT women and men who take years and years to "find someone".

Personally, if you want to find people you connect with, I would go online, go to a dating site that supports your area, and make a posting, it is anonoymus, so you are not going to "embarass" yourself, and leave a message. If you are up to it, send out replies to women you think sound interesting! What is the worst that can happen?


I'm on a free dating site, and actually have gotten a few responses, but I'm generally too scared to actually write back :lol: I never know what to say, plus I'm embarrassed that I don't make all that much money, and probably have really different interests from most women (ironically if I were gay, I'd guess more men would have similar interests...)

I did actually date a girl last year briefly, and it wasn't a complete disaster, although we weren't right for each other I don't think.

After I get a diagnosis, I'll feel like I can legitimately put myself on the Aspie Affection site :)

Try it Soph! You'll never know otherwise! And just look at all the supportive posts. You are well liked here. And no matter what, do not leave WP! Okay? Okay.

Ok I'm coming in late and only got through a few pages,... sorry if this has been said

Sopho - thre is nothing wrong with obsessing over a random member. I have an obsession with three members here. I am very disapointed when one of them is offline or leaves :oops: they don't know though, although I don't think either would mind.

If you feel nervous telling her or you don't think she will understand then don't tell her. Being hurt online can sometimes be just as bad as being hurt irl. If you are OK with all the possible consiquenses (including her thinking you are boring) then tell her. I don't think I've seen many members that wouldnot understand though.

I don't think you can make it go aeway, it's an obsession and obsessions die down on there own

but your not boring. I know this just from the LP thread. O_O also, you like animals. animal people are never boring, it's impossible.

Indeed. There are very few if any people around here who wouldn't understand about obsessions and how little control we have over them. Your thinking about it too much Soph that just makes it harder to act.
