Never had a real in person bf. I dated one guy(who was aspie) online last year. Now, Im sorta dating another guy. Its hard to say cause were not really bf/gf but then we're definetly more then just friends. It just kinda happened but then its nothing serious mainly cause he's opposed to online dating. The problem is he lives on the other side of the country so I might never meet him. Not sure if it'll work out.
I have never had a bf, kissed a guy, had sex, or been out on a proper date. Though I don't always like proximity, I do have a desire to have someone to cuddle, kiss and hold me in a loving way as I have never experienced it.
I had a crush on one of my closest friends for 18 months until recently. We went out together alot, and he was cool with my passion at first but he started being mean to me around friends and calling me names and slating my passion and saying he would pay me to shut up, which he then decided he wouldn't. Recently he apparently heard from people that I had said that we had been in a relationship for 18 months and were sexually active, when I never said, and would never say that, and was really horrible and angry and won't believe me, and said very mean things to me. I have been told by people they think he did like me, or still does, but is just trying to get me out of his life cos of those feelings (I am off to uni in a few weeks) I told him I never liked him so he wouldn't hold it against me and may believe me but it hasn't worked yet, I just valued him alot as a friend and feel as if a piece is missing
At the moment, seeing people talk about asexuality, I am quite sure that at this stage I am asexual, I have a curiosity, obviously, I imagine there are few 18 year olds who don't, but don't see myself actually going to bed with anyone without feeling repulsive and dirty. I lied at school and told people I wasn't a virgin cos almost everyone else wasn't and I had a split second to decide and this turns out to be part of what destroyed my friendship with my crush (who I am now over, thank God)
I hope some day I will find someone who doesn't call me a 'severely autistic ADHD attention seeker' and loves me for who I am and doesn't put me down when I talk about my passions.

I've never had a relationship at all. I'm so sick of seeing couples hold hands, hug, and just be together. I know I'm only fifteen years old, but I'm so sick of waiting for it to happen!
But this is the thing that keeps me waiting for the right person: It has to be with the right person, right timing, and right everything.
And this means I'm partially afraid, too. I don't want to have an ex. Yet I promised myself that I'd loose my virginity before I die. I just have to make sure I don't loose it with a potential ex, otherwise that would traumatize me badly.
I have never had a Girlfriend before, I'm 16 and I'm 6'7 and next week when i start school i'm going to be a Junior in High School. I have been trying to find a girlfriend (and when I do find a girlfriend she will be my First ever Girlfriend) since 8th Grade so for about 4 years and every time I like a girl she says she does not like me or she already has a boyfriend or she's not interested in a relationship. I've never had my first kiss with a girl yet and I'm 16!, the most I've done with a girl is a hug. All I know at the rate things are going when I finaly get my First Girlfriend I'll probaly be in a relationship with her for a long time because I've been waiting 16 years to find a Girlfriend and I still have not found a Girlfriend. I hope to find a girlfriend for prom (Which will be my 1st prom) so I can go to prom with a girl. All I know is after waiting so long trying to find a Girlfriend for so long I will never cheat on my Girlfriend because it was so hard to find a Girlfriend in the first place probaly because of my high functioning aspergers.
Not only have I never had a BF, I've never even had a male friend. (The concept is still foreign to me). Never done anything. Had a strange time growing up in a strange town filled with incredibly intolerant people. But not intolerant in the way you'd expect. This ain't no redneck town in the Deep South, this is a "progressive town" in British Columbia.
I'm 36 and female and I loooooooooove Transformers.
21 years old and have never dated anybody. Still a virgin. There were a few girls who were attracted to me in high school, but I rejected all of them, either because I didn't find them attractive or else I had nothing in common with them. One girl stalked me as I wandered the halls during lunch and left messages on my livejournal about it. Wasn't attracted to her. Another made very obvious advances towards me from late middle school to my senior year of high school, playing "footsie" with me, asking me to hug her, and sitting on my lap during gym class, but due to my Asperger Syndrome I was very insecure and not sure if she was joking with me or if she seriously was interested. During my senior year she very bluntly asked me if I wanted to go to her house to have sex and smoke pot, which seemed to settle that question once and for all, but I was too embarrassed and didn't know how to respond (My Aspie sense told me to say in a matter-of-fact and monotonous voice, "Yes, I think it would be very enjoyable to have sex with you. I accept your offer and am willing to do this thing at any time that would be convenient for you." Something told me that this isn't how most people respond to flirtations and seductions, however, so I was reticent to say this) so instead I put my head down on my desk and ignored her until she went away, telling me before she left that she wasn't interested in submissive men. I just remembered that during middle school she asked me out to this dance, but one of my friends was there with me and he said, "Don't do it" so I told her no. This same individual later went on to date her briefly sometime after the incident that I have just related.
There was another girl who confessed her love to me once, and this love was reciprocated, as I found her quite nice and attractive, but I rejected her nevertheless because we had no mutual interests. Additionally, sometime during high school I developed masochistic and femdom fantasies, which made me feel disconnected from her. It is not that I would try to get her to do anything that she would not want to do, or that I would be incapable of living in a sexually normative relationship, but rather the mere fact I had these fantasies seemed to indicate to me that we lived in entirely different worlds that couldn't possibly be allowed to come together. This is a meaningless statement, but I felt at the time that it would be wrong in some cosmic sense for us to be together. People who are happy, innocent, and pure need to be with others who are the same. So, the day after exchanging confessions, I called everything off. Another factor that went into my decision was that I didn't have a driver's license and had never had a job. I was ashamed of myself and felt like I was too immature to be in a relationship.
Towards the end of my senior year I was attracted to a cute and very intelligent young man. I found my conversations with him to be agreeable, but I was unable to express my interest and moreover I feared that he would not reciprocate. Nothing came of this.
Last summer I went to a friend's house to watch some anime and after getting somewhat intoxicated I was asked if I would have sex with his wife, provided of course that both he and she knew about it and were fine with it. I was also asked if I found his wife attractive. I became very embarrassed at this, and said something to the effect of, "Your wife is one of the most beautiful women I have ever seen, but no, I would not do such a thing." I was told that I was in their estimation a trustworthy individual and asked if I would be willing to videotape them as they were having sex at some undetermined point in the future. I professed my ignorance as to the operation of video cameras, citing the digital camera I bought over a year ago and never used, and saying moreover that in my hands the final results would probably be in any case unaesthetic. He then told me that he had a thing for public sex and asked me if I would mind them having sex in front of me and upon expressing that I had no issues with this, they began having sex on the same couch I was sitting on, just a few feet away from me. They were both unspeakably beautiful people, and it was interesting, but I ended up paying a lot more attention to the anime. It was an episode I had seen before, but a good one. Very touching. I told them afterwards that what I did see of them was mildly enjoyable. This is the only sexual experience I have had beyond pornography.
I'm 21 now, in college, and I feel that I must seriously consider the possibility that I might never have a relationship of any duration. Whenever I imagine a relationship with any of the people I interact with on a daily basis at my college, I encounter the aforementioned problem of feeling disconnected from them, of feeling disconnected from most of humanity. There are many factors contributing to this sense of alienation: my acute awkwardness, my naïveté, my relatively obscure and esoteric interests, and my odd fantasies of being dominated, among others. I only feel truly connected with my closest friends, who have very intimate knowledge of me and are very accepting. I doubt that most people would want to have a relationship with me, however. I do not deny that there is probably somebody out there who I would be compatible with, perhaps even as I am now, but there is no guarantee that I will ever find this person and certainly it does not seem that I will come into contact with any such individual in the near future.
I am not overly distressed by the prospect of loneliness (and it is not really that lonely, because I do have friends who understand and care about me), though, and it will be interesting to see if I am ever able to enter into a relationship of any sort. I am sure that it would be a stimulating and fascinating experience.
I am sorry for inflicting this horrendously long post on everybody.

I've been single my whole life. I wasn't diagnosed with AS until after high school. I was extremely socially immature. I grew up and in late high school only found one interesting girl. I did nothing wrong but whe was going through personal problems. I started going to a brach campus of Penn State. There weren't too many girls there, and only one interesting one. When I got interested, she was about to transfer to another campus, so I didn't bother chasing after her. Last spring was my first semester at Penn State main campus. I totally messed up. During the summer, I didn't meet any girls. Now I'm interested in this one girl, but can't seem to find the right time to ask her out.
Im 19 and never had a BF. Guys start to try and chat me up but I'm clueless about how to respond and end up looking as if I'm not interested. The guys that I'm interested in lose interest quickly when I can't flirt back and the ones that I'm not interested in tend to be more persistant (or maybe just more desperate ). I've had drunken guys pester me for sex after nights out but there's no way I could sleep with someone that I wasn't comfortable with and didn't know well.
I'm fed up being a virgin and I wanted to lose it to someone I know well and trust so I recently decided to ask one of my best friends who is single and enjoys sleeping around if he would "help me out". He was at my house for a pizza and a drink and I was nervous so I had a drink and then more drink and by the time I'd plucked up the courage to ask him I was completely drunk. He said that he wouldn't take advantage of me and we never mentioned it again. I don't know why he really turned me down. If it was because I was too drunk or if he thinks I'm an innocent aspie or if he just finds me unattractive. If it was just because I was drunk I would ask him again when less drunk but I'm too embarrased to ask again incase he just doesn't want to and he thinks I'm harassing him. I only have two guy friends and the other one is my best friends fiancee so he's unlikely to be much help.
Being the only virgin in the town just isn't fun.
