A simple question I suppose. How would you go about it? Given that we are not all geographically close, would you relocate to be with them? It only makes sense that members here are understanding of meltdowns, stimming, depression and obsessive interests? Or more effective to let a profile moulder on Aspie Affection?

I did, and to top it off, I mostly observe the forums without participating; a "lurker" in internet colloquialisms. I even flew thousands of miles across the country to meet them, and ultimately form a strong relationship with them.

There was no "going about it" for me. It all started from an innocent thread she had started about traveling. I replied, and after receiving a positive response to my reply, I sent my first and only PM to another member. As the saying goes, "the rest is history!"

I'd consider it. What I'd do, not really sure. I'd have to try to feel it out as best as I could.

^This. I don't think I live close to any WP members that I talk to, anyhow.

Been there done that. Twice.

I'd probably do it again with the right person with the right attitude.

I would do it, if she wanted to, and I liked her back. Even if there was a distance, it is still better to know someone cares for you, and vice versa. Eventually, we would find a way together

I would if there were any ladies local to me that I found amenable and compatible and wanted to be with me. That isn't happening for whatever reason.

I don't know anyone here who has a crush on me either (PM me if you do).
