Most prostitutes in this country are East European teens smuggled into Norway and forced to prostitute themselves and I have no intention of supporting organized crime.
I think that in some countries, the female ideal is to look for a husband or a long-time partner, while one-night stands are believed to be pornographic and perverted.

I don't feel the need for a dating site either, lonermutant, but thats no reason to slam the idea. It's pure brilliance.

What do you mean by "pure brilliance"? it's just a pathetic joke. Personally, I only want sex, wich I find grossly pathetic.

No, I just want to forget that I have a sex drive at all.

Ok, I'm trying to be as nice as I can.

THERE OPINIONS OUT THERE THAT DIFFER FROM YOUR OWN. WE GET THE PICTURE THAT THIS SITE ISN'T GOING TO WORK FOR YOU. THAT DOESN'T IMPACT OUR FEELINGS ON THE MATTER IN THE SLIGHTEST.

By the way, Aspie Affection has just made its first sale! Someone has upgraded to a Gold Account! You guys better buy a Gold account before I up the price...


Personally I don't think you should start charging anyone anything until you have confirmed that a couple has actually managed to hook up together through this site... until you have confirmed that your service is actually fulfilling its intended function.

It is your site of course, but that is my opinion.

I agree with this sentiment you are really defeating the purpose of the site by charging people. Myspace is probably one of the biggest and best dating sites out there(I've met quite a few girls off there) and yet it's free.

Quite frankly, I think this site is pointless members can just as easily meet right on here on the forums, as some have already have.

Aspie Affection Success Stories wrote:
In each other's arms this Christmas!
June 26, 2005
Met Pietro on here a year ago (he has put his success story on too). He kept asking for a date but I kept putting him off!! !! I finally agreed to meet up in October of this year and we hit it off straight away. We have seen each other...

A year ago? Isn't Aspie Affection (hereafter AA) less than a month old, which would mean it didn't even exist on June 26, 2005? I think it's better to correct this, since it would be false advertising. If AA is open to the public, some members might catch on to this, and the owner(s) could get in trouble for posting the "success story". In addition, on the same page, it says that AA has only 33 members. Now it does not look for good for a site that's allegedly over a year old to have so few members. So I strongly recommend to remove the Success Stories section for the time being.

It is free. Gold account just means you get some extra features like the ability to add up to twenty pictures instead of just a couple.

We're in Beta right now so we haven't had any success stories at all. That's just a default filler that my dating software people put in there. Sorry about that. I'll replace it with lorem ipsum.

Should I be allowed (legally) to sign up for this at 17? If so, I'll sign up.

Since the site is for Aspies, you may want to add some Aspie type interested to the check boxes. For instance, some things like Si-Fi, reading, computers, that type of thing. The check boxes have many of the typical "average" interests out there, but I found that there was not a lot I could check! I ended up explaining my interests in the dialogue box, but of course, that won't be searchable.
