So I have been contemplating what I really want and I have came to a conclusion:
In high school it would have been extremely easy for me to get a girlfriend; I had the looks and I did the sports so I could have basically have dated whoever I wanted but instead I decided to date no one.
In College, it is the same thing.
I realize now that I don't really want a girlfriend and I don't think I ever will want a girlfriend for a couple of years.
I guess all I really want is "Friends with Benefit" AKA Sex.
If I don't really care about half of my own emotions then why would I bother to care about other peoples emotions?
I wouldn't.
I think lots of guys my age(20-College Student) Neurotypical or Aspie feel the same way. In fact, like 90%. Relationships are a major pain the rear end!
That's what a guy's SUPPOSED to be and think if he's conforming to the 'what a guy should be' sort of role that society puts out there. And I won't lie - women do their fair share to perpetuate it in that they're only really attracted to guys who are being...well...uber guys, regardless of what they really like to think or say to the contrary (this is the flip side of it - the same things they're attracted to are the same things that make what they ultimately want, a relationship, practically impossible without a lot of sheer misery on both sides).
I'd just say do what you want and don't worry about the statistics of who does what. Truth is if your able to be more of a basic sort you'll probably have much better chances than some artsy tool who shows no outward sex-drive whatsoever.
