I'm a strict vegetarian and most of the time a vegan.
I like to spend most of my time with my animals. All I ever want to do is read. I like to cook.
I have been told I share a heart with Janis Joplin. I don't like TV except for a few select programs. I like folksy music. My favorite fiction author is John Irving. I refuse to cut my hair. I have freckles on my face and an albino spot on my back. I can also flip my tongue upside down and touch my tongue to my nose. Seriously. If that's not a selling point I don't know what is.
Hi?
You're very pretty. What's the biggest difficulty of being vegan? Have you been able to do it w/o resorting to vitamin/mineral capsules or multis like One-A-Day or Centrum? With regards to the hair I'm like you in that refuse to cut it to a point where it's short enough that I can't pull it back. Do you have issues with the sensation of yuor hair against your face? I don't really have a fave author, I moreless just read(actually listen to) whatever I can getin/transcode into m4b format for my iPod. I can't flip my tongue but I can roll it and touch my nose w/it too. Can you cauliflower your tongue? What I didn't quote is the part about the ecovillage are there any of those sort of places in Canada, more specifically southern/southeastern Ontraio or are they stirctly something you'd find in the warmer climate like in the southern states or Cali or something like that? I love to cook, though I do tend to make a lot more complex dishes but sometimes nothing beats an "everything-in-the-crisper" sauce. I love my animals, well maybe not both but that's because one of them is totally coddled and spolied by my mother, but I do love animals, especially cats and horses.

And unfortunately (for me or is it you? ) quite a ways out of my dating territory. If only I were on that side of "the pond".
You just have a thing for Aspies?!
Yes

age: 27
sex: male
looking for: female
location (for now): north Texas
height/weight: 6', 178
my interests: art/design, music, literature, reading nonfiction (from botany to psychology to Roman emperors and historical surveys of wallpaper...I find everything fascinating if approached from the right angle).
places I enjoy: cafes, parks, used bookstores, thrift stores, museums, art galleries, beaches, well-worn tourist areas
A good friend once described me as cat-like, which I thought was apt. I'm quiet, occasionally witty, fond of sarcasm, wordplay, and slightly morbid humor, not great at small talk, although I can ramble interminably on any of my interests if prompted (I won't bombard you with unwanted talk). I'm exceedingly nice and caring--I've been told my heart is maybe too pure for the confusion and self-interest of the world. Some have called me saintly, but I disagree--I consider myself a realist who chooses not to dwell on the negative aspects of things and people around me, instead trying to find/salvage some beauty in the flawed.
My ideal match would be someone intelligent, funny, patient, understanding, diverse in interests, good natured on the whole. Eyes are very attractive to me--I love the way people look at things, the ability for a person to be rapt in seeing. My main obsession is the arts--someone willing to talk about that, occasionally, is a bonus, since, ideally, I wouldn't want to bore with the things I'm most passionate about.

Interpersonally, I feel at a loss at times. I'm attractive but different from what most women expect from a man my age. Several women have told me that I love "innocently" or "purely", that I don't have the ulterior motives that provide a background to many relationships. I've also been told that I can be confusing, that I think too much, can abrubtly shift between being abstract/"distant" and affectionate. Sometimes I need impromptu solitude to rest my oversensitive senses. Other people's motives and feelings feel mysterious to me, except for people who constantly express what they feel towards me, which I find extremely uncomfortable. Although I'm not extremely sociable, I'm not afraid of trying new things.
You sound a lot like me. Unfortunately, not many females out there with our kind of introspective, surrealist minds...even among those of us with AS.

Hi, Idiocratik, and I'm also in Texas. There may seem to be a lack of similarly minded women, but that might not be completely bad. I once lived with a woman who seemed to be a carbon copy of me--although I love her and think she's a genius, it was truly an odd experience, since I'm not used to people as quiet as me, with as much of a propensity to brood, not express 'inner experience' things aloud, be as rigid and confused as me. Hypocritical? Yes. Hilariously, though, she felt the same way towards me, and we get along great now.
More recently I made an attempt at a relationship with a woman who was introverted in a different way and whose viewpoint was obviously and irreperably different than my own--attraction and curiosity being our strongest bonds. Although as a relationship, it just couldn't work, it felt beneficial in the sense that I did things I wouldn't normally even consider, which helped me see things outside of myself better than I've habitually done before. One of the good failures. Differences can highlight things we might otherwise miss out on.
plz be my girlfriend
Don't you already have a girlfriend?
Unless something changed since I've been away...

Aw what the heck. I'll give it a shot.
Name: Bryan
Age: 24
Gender: Male
Orientation: Straight
Location: Minnesota
Hair color: Brown
Eye color: Hazel
Education: AA Degree in Broadcasting. I also will be taking classes this spring to become a medical office worker.
Interests: Movies are a big passion of mine, and I love all sorts of movies may it be artier fare like Seven Samurai or Jean Cocteau's Beauty and The Beast, to balls to the wall action flicks like Die Hard, Hard-Boiled and the like. I do have a bit of a bias towards genres (I prefer dramas, comedies and action flicks over horror movies for instance)but I give any movie that comes my way a chance. I also like anime, videogames, swimming, taking walks down by the lake, coming up with ideas for potential screenplays, and generally, just taking it easy.
Politics: I consider myself apolitical. I don't side with a particular political party, so I'm not one who takes issue with one's political standing. The only time I take issue with it is when you look down upon someone simply because they don't agree with your political views. I can't stand people judging others over something so shallow.
Religion: I'm a Methodist Christian, but I'm not the bible thumping kind of guy. In fact, I'm tolerant and accepting of different religions and practices. You could worship the chupracabra, and I would still respect your beliefs. My motto when it comes to such a thing is as long as they are not hurting anyone or trying to force other people into their practices, then I'm OK with it.
And now the meaty part. What I want in a girlfriend.
For starters, I want someone who is easy going and laid-back. Someone who isn't interested in drama and someone who I feel safe in talking to about anything. I'm someone who prefers to relax, so I would prefer them not to be a party person, but I'm always up for restaurants, concerts, festivals and things of that sort. I want someone who exposes me to new things and is someone who I would always look forward to see. Being nerdy or having the same geeky interests as I do is a plus, but not required. Someone who is not judgmental is a biggie for me.
As far as looks go, I'm not too pickie when it comes to looks. I love girls who have a bookish, homely look, but it's not a requirement for me.
I'd give ya a pic of myself, but I don't got one uploaded on my computer at the moment, but I'll try to get some pics of me as quick as I can.
If you're interested, PM me or send me a message on AIM.

Age: 24
Gender/Orientation: Straight Male
Location: Central Connecticut
I'm 5'11" and 160 pounds
My Diagnosis is "Pervasive Developmental Disorder Not Otherwise Specified". So I'm a bit of a slightly more NT aspie, but still autistic.
I ripped this from my PoF profile:
I am a sophomore undergrad majoring in Evolutionary Biology, I plan on going for my Masters so I get get into research, probably in Ecology or Biodiversity something.
I have done a 4-year stint in the Marine Corps as an Infantryman but I got out because I disliked the bureaucracy and hypocrisy of the leadership I worked for. Since then I have become much more liberal and pacifist. I'm certainly not the archetypal ex-Marine, my involvement in the war caused me to reverse many of my political views.
I'm an Atheist who's a big fan of Richard Dawkins so if your religious it probably won't work too well, not that I'm really preachy or condescending about it. I come from a religious family and we get along fine. I've also investigated Buddhism, which I like a lot but I'm not so sure about the Karma and Reincarnation thing. I'm very introverted and geeky, I'm really into books about Science. I don't listen to much music except when I drive, my favorite station is 106.9 or 104.1 now that they've switched back to rock. As far as movies go I like "300", "Bladerunner", "Charlie Wilson's War" I could probably go on and on. I did not however, like "Paranormal Activity", the only exciting part was when the guy got stabbed (off-screen) and the movie ended minutes later. "Blair Witch" was way better. I regularly watch "30 Rock", "Family Guy", "The Office", "Fringe", "Lost" and "24". I was a huge X-Files fan too.
I do have a sense of humor but it come and goes. Mostly dry humor like Mulder from the X-Files. Sometimes it's totally unintentional.
Politically I'm an Independent who leans Democrat, I support gay rights, gun rights (to an extent), pacifism and the separation of Church and State. I also have several tattoos on my arms (not shown in the pic), including a red and black tribal the starts at my left elbow and goes up onto my upper pectoral and back of my shoulder. I also hate drama and fighting, my very dramatic ex once told me she found it really weird I never get angry at anything, that can be good or bad I guess.
I also generally dislike people who are not aware of current events or ignorant of very basic history or science. For example, people who believe that "Evolution teaches that we evolved from Apes". It's not about academic arrogance, I just don't like people who don't know and don't care enough to educate themselves.
Oh yeah, and I'm highly eccentric, meaning I'm sort of scatter-brained and easily distracted from what's going on around me, or even from what I'm doing, by my thoughts. It probably won't take more than a conversation or two for you to figure out that I'm pretty f***ing weird.
