a litte about myself:
obviously i have asperger disorder, but i also have a congnative disorder nos, and a mild schizoid personality disorder. (dont worry it has nothing to do with schizophrenia) who is just really interesting in making friends. i would like a girlfriend but i think i need to learn how to make friends first. i dont drive so anywhere we go to do whatever it is friends do, we will have to take public transportation or walk. im really a nice person and easy to get along with/
some of my hobbies include collecting sportscards, rocks, and watching the weather channel.
im really not to picky about friends likes; dislikes (i'll try almost anything once) if i dont like it i just wont ever do it again lol.
I'm sick of trying NT date sites (and sick of dating NTs), so I'll give this a shot.

* Preference: Males 28-32 y/o of integrity, with good character and work ethics, who don't expect me to spend all my free time cleaning up after them!
* I am a C. I am a C-h. I am a C-h-r-i-s-t-i-a-n. I have C-h-r-i-s-t in my h-e-a-r-t, and I will l-i-v-e e-t-e-r-n-a-l-l-y! (Song I learned in 8th grade.) Yep, I'm a Christian, hoping to someday marry a man with a heart for God and solid relationship with Christ.

I'm an 18 yr. old Female from a town closer to Toronto, Ontario. I'm looking for friends, or maybe a cyberpal (I am interested in meeting new people, there's just nobody here I can get, plus, NT humans are WiErD! around here...) PM me if you're interested in talking or whatever. I'm into most things Japanese, Computers, Photography (especially digital or B&W which I can develop myself), annoying select NT's, most arts, Psychology (I find psychologists amusing, especially the ones who still think that AS and HFA are the exact same thing [To me they're not]) Anyway...
That's about it for now...
I am a 19-year-old male from the tiny state of Rhode Island. I am interested in reading fantasy novels (just finished Sword of Truth), video games, browsing the Internet for interesting scientific developments, and a few other things. I also love food. There are people who eat to live; I, on the other hand, live to eat. I am very opinionated, and greatly enjoy any form of intellectual debate, be it political or anything else.
Physically I am 6’ 165 lbs. I have short dark hair and green eyes. I’m skinny but not to the point of skin and bones. Many people tell me that I look like a friend of theirs; apparently, I have a generic looking face.
I am looking for a girl who wants commitment; I have had some relationships fail because I wanted it and she did not. Other than that I am open to pretty much anyone. If you’re interested in talking to me, PM me or contact me through AIM or what not.
Hey all you people out there.
I'm 20, male, and ready to sail. I have never been out on a boat, but the rhyme is nice. I've got a lot of time on my hands right now, taking a break from college, trying to fix my brain. (lol, fix-- it's not broken, just made in China, packaged in Canada and shipped from Mexico.)
Interests: practically anything will get my attention
Hobbies: Walking, Talking, Chatting Online.
Status: Single, with 1 real Ex-Girl Friend, and another (1/2) real Ex-Girlfriend.
Situation: Just looking for friends.
Location: USA/California/San Diego/Carlsbad area.
Well, that is me. Feel free to contact me for whatever. I'll respond in an appropriate manner.

My name is Anthony and I'm 20 and live in Mooroolbark. I was born with Aspergers Syndrome, and I have tried living my life as best as I can, but I'm afraid I don't really value myself very much.
Here are a few things about me:
Date of birth: 10 Oct 1985
Height: 177cm
Weight: 58kg
Hair colour: dark brown
Eye colour: brown
Build: thin
Smoke: yes but trying to quit
Drink: occasionally
Interests: movies, music, musical theatre, internet, fishing
I am looking for a woman who understands what I am going through, either because she has aspergers or she knows almost everything there is to know about it. The important thing is that my ideal partner must love me for who I am.
If any women nearby think they meet this criteria, please send me a message.
I am currently seeing a psychologist to improve my self-esteem.
Sex: Female
height: 5 feet 6 inches
eyes: Hazel
hair: auburn
build: average
looks: Average
best feature:...I dont know?
perfect first date: 00/00/00
Location:Thousand Oaks,CA
Just waiting for Mr or Mrs. Perfect!
Just wondering since its been a while since you posted this are you still looking?

Beauty is in the eye of beholder but to a theif beauty is money.
Given that the ladies are generally the chasee instead of the chaser, you're going to find fewer of them looking for someone, even on NT sites. That said...
37, single male. 6'3" (191cm) and 270lbs (122.5kg or 19.2 stone) Build: mesomorphic that's gone soft, rather than endomorphic. I don't look that tall unless you're up close or have something to judge scale by. Dark blonde/brown hair, blue eyes, full beard.
Athiest with pagan leanings. (Look at the world as it is & tell me if there is a higher power is it a Divine Clockmaker or a Committee?) Politics: Difficult to describe in a format that would fit on a bumper sticker. The short form is that I'm a Republican on economic issues, a Libertarian when it comes to Civil Rights, and a complete Machiavellian on the subject of Foriegn Policy.
Hobbies: Sci-Fi reading & fandom, costuming, cooking, table-top role playing games (That means neither the computer version nor the, ahem, bedroom version), computers, shooting, politics. Did I mention that I cook?

Hi guys,
It seems that days are getting darker and more rainy here on the North Pole, although the temperature
keeps close to +20C and anyway I continue working as a nurse despite of my asperger symptoms. Nevertheless I took my two master`s degree in applied chemistry and biochemistry having worked mostly as a researcher.
Colleagues and friends have considered me as a strange person, but I do not really care if they critisize
me about routised time schedule or postponing house hold chores. Practically I have been dating for years
with two normal man at my age, 29, until they got bored and began to date with someone else. They have praised how pretty, nice and smart i am before they understand that I avoid the relationship becoming too physical.
As most of you, I am very poor in social interaction but sense or humour, imagination, painting, writing poetry and musical talents are my treasures although i am a bit bohemian by piling clothes on the chair.
It is always difficult to find aspie friends who would comprehend me according to their own experiences. This time I am not especially looking for a boyfriend/ partner if only God does not allow it to occur while meeting an academic, catholic and artistic catholic zombie.

Yeah, that's a tough one to crack. I at least have a few close friends I've made on here but it seems like aside from just one or two I haven't found that many people that I can really talk to and feel like we're in the same headspace. Especially as an atypical aspie, PDD-NOS, it's tough.
25 male straight from norway.
PDD otherwise specified (strong asperger traits), most people don't notice.
Looking from norwegian female 16-25 years old.
searchnaive (att) gmail.com is my email. searchnaive is my AIM-name.

OK guys, here's a post from a female! Gather round and read my intro....
I'm 43, divorced, and live in Oregon. I'm five foot four and have dark hair. I've been divorced for three years now, and I like to think that I have no emotional baggage. Well, perhaps just a small carry-on.....
I was on Match.com for six months, and dated a couple dozen guys. Nothing clicked. I cancelled my membership after I met a registered sex offender. He actually told me what he'd done.
I have two boys who live with their father and spend summers with me. I am not looking for someone to play daddy They already have one.
I'm not sure if I'm an Aspie, but it sure would explain a lot.......
I'm smart and funny. I took a job that forces me to develop my social skills: sales. Don't ask me if it's easy. You know the answer.
I like going to concerts. Three big names I've seen in the last year or so: Audioslave, Sheryl Crow, and the Rolling Stones. I've also seen many local bands.
I also like to travel. There's a big world out there to see! This year I went to San Diego, California. Next year I'm going on an Alaskan cruise. I do tend to plan out the day-by-day details in advance.
As far as who I'd like to meet, someone of similar age would be good. Younger or older would be OK, as long as you don't come across as a little boy or Grandpa. It would be so cool to meet someone who actually "gets" me. Hope springs eternal....

Hello to everyone. This seemed like a good idea and after everything I've tried, it seemed like 'what do I have to lose?'. So here goes:
I am 27 years old and I live in Eugene, Oregon. I am 6 feet tall and weigh around 250 pounds. I have short dark brown hair and hazel eyes. I always have some kind of facial hair, but I keep it maintained. I love music, film and art. I've loved to draw since I was around 6 years old. I've always been known as the artist, both in school and in my family. I also love to write, mostly short stories. I have extensive knowledge and interest in all there of those areas. I work as a janitor cleaning a three story building in downtown Eugene. My days and hours keep me from having much of a social life. I work Mon-Fri from 6 pm to 2 am.
I know we should be positive but I feel the need to be honest so people understand. I have had such terrible luck with women my whole life. I've never been able to get past the stage of just asking a girl out and her accepting. I've taken all kinds of advice and suggestions. I have also tried at least 6 or 7 different dating sites without even getting a response. I do get lonely alot but I've just tried to accept it and keep myself busy. But sometimes I feel ashamed, like I'm a freak because I can't attract anyone. I'm rarely told I'm bad looking, but the same with being told I'm good looking. Mostly girls don't notice me. I don't think I'm that bad looking guy. I am always working on my weight and have slowly been losing some. But I do have many good qualities. I have a big heart, I'm very patient and understanding, I'm a great listener, and I make great conversation. But my shyness gets in the way I guess. And maybe I'm too nice I don't know. But no matter what I don't lose hope. I am somewhat a spiritual person, though I don't belong to a particular religion. The things I don't have control over, I leave up to God.
I don't know what else to say. If anyone wants to ask me anything or talk to me, feel free to respond. Thanks. Take care.
