As I keep saying, I don't know if I'm AS, but sometimes I just don't understand people.

This is kind of pathetic, but I was on this dating site where you can IM people. So I started off asking the guy what he was doing, trying to be correct. I won't say what he said because it's inappropriate, but it was a Freudian slip, he left out one letter and completely changed the meaning. I thought it was hilarious, so I responded with "lol" Suddenly he disconnects and refuses to talk to me.

I'm trying to think of why. Did he not like me laughing at his mistake? Was he embarrassed that he said something so inappropriate accidentally??? If I was in his shoes I would have laughed too and said "ha, that was hilarious what I typed!"

Sigh

You wouldnt want to date someone who has no sense of humour so good riddance! Its like you are talking to someone for the first time, they fart loudly and waft it at you. It is better to get that out of the way early rather than find out three months in.

Why don't you tell us what he actually said and make this thread a bit more comprehensible (and interesting)?

He was probably too embarrassed to keep talking. But if I were him, I would have laughed and considered it a great way to "break the ice".

Well, I don't know what it was, but maybe he thought he blew his chance with you. If it was a Freudian slip, that's probably the case.

Did anyone catch the Freudian slip by James Naughtie when he introduced the UK Culture Secretary, Jeremy Hunt, on the BBC Today Programme? Even better was when Andrew Marr accidentally repeated it while trying to apologise to listeners:

Maybe it wasn't a slip. Maybe he was trolling for vulnerable people and when you didn't react like he wanted he was done with you. But without knowing what he said, it's hard to say.

Nevermind, but the thing was sexual in what it implied a bit.

I sort of figured that. Don't worry about it. I doubt your reaction was the problem.
