Someone on this site told me they met their girlfriend on this site and I'm wondering how they did it. How can I date using this site?

I found my 2nd & current girlfriend on this site but both relationships were long distance till I moved from Louisiana to Vermont to be with my current girlfriend. We did meet up offline acouple times before we moved in together & I did travel from Louisiana to Texas to meet my 2nd girlfriend. Being open to long distance & being willing to relocate makes finding a girlfriend online easier. I found those two girlfriends by making LOTS of post about being lonely, what I wanted in a girlfriend & a relationship, & what I had to offer a girlfriend like my strengths within a relationship. My 2nd girlfriend replied about how she related & I asked if I could PM her. My current girlfriend read lots of my post & sent me a PM.

You could also read lots of posts on here & find girls who are single & possibly looking for a relationship. Then PM em about how you like or relate to something they said or share how you have a similar interests as them & ask them some non relationship questions. Get to know em abit & then suggest a relationship.

It is for women. There's a huge amount of single men here who'd give anything to date a woman. Not so much single women who'd date aspie men or willing to do long distance.

So if say it's slim to none.

You're just a mathmatical impossibility. I've been on here for years posting about being lonely and never got a gf. Like many guys here.

Well, now there is your problem! You simply cannot attract a woman by constantly complaining about how lonely you are - unless you are serving in a remote location like Adak, Alaska or McMurdo Base, Antarctica.

Including Nick007, I know of 6, possibly 9 users here who have found relationships.

Considering the sheer-size of this website and amount of members, and considering this website has existed for almost 12 years, this means those that do get relationships are the infinitesimally small minority.

It's sort of like winning the lottery, or becoming famous.

There's 29,333 users and 6 have had confirmed relationships from this.

Even then they tend to be long-distance relationships if you can handle that, and nick007 is the only case where I've heard they now actually live together.

It ain't gonna happen...

Sure, Angela, possible, but unlikely.

Put it this way: Are there any single men using this website that you would date?

Highly unlikely, but not impossible. There is no universal guideline to follow either

I complained about being lonely aLOT but I was also here for a few years before I got my 2nd girlfriend.
