All of which changes if the guy is rich and/or good looking. I doubt Melania is a great conversationist :lol:


I heard she speaks multiple languages, so that would make her interesting to talk to from my perspective.

One of my preferences for dating was that the other person spoke at least two languages (not a hard requirement, but being bilingual myself, I enjoy the topic of languages).

:shrug:

Usual caveat: I'm not the norm, and my opinions are just my own. Your mileage may vary. I wish everyone all the best :heart:


I speak two languages:
-Tortured Englisch,
-And jibberish.

How does that stack up? :mrgreen:


I speak English and drunk


I have heard it said that the Australian accent came about because drunk parents talked that way to their kids. Sounds about right. :mrgreen:

I call them my kind of women :mrgreen: Low-quality is relative. Most would consider me low-quality but I like the kind of people who most others would consider low-quality. I get why most would consider me low-quality & I get why most would consider the kinds of women I'm most attracted to low-quality, But I NEVER think of those women as low-quality. I think of them as priceless. The kinds of people I consider low-quality are the kinds of people that lots idolize. Someone is low-quality to me if they intentionally majorly screw others over in order to get ahead which unfortunately seems to be lots of highly successful politicians & businessmen. I'd much rather someone with a heart of gold than someone who has a thousand bricks of gold pressed latinum :nerdy:

I speak English and Arabic. Wish I knew at least one more.


من اين اصلك؟


Awesome! I really want to learn Arabic, but I've had trouble finding a good approach to the written aspect (ie. Even basic written Arabic instruction was confusing to me :lol: )

I tend to agree with this viewpoint.

The term "low quality" bothers me because it is vague (and therefore mostly meaningless), and it also feels derogatory.

I love kind hearted individuals. Maybe society deems them worthless, or maybe not (I can't really tell); but I think they are infinitely valuable.....

Well I have to say that all of your replies are very insightful. I’m past the sex part now. I also have put away my feelings. I gave up my home to move in with him and A) he did not help me move and B) my household belongings went into a storage locker because there is no room in his house. The moment he said I could not even bring one of my own dressers in.....it was the start of the end. I haven’t even attempted sex with him again.

I have concluded we are room mates. He cannot understand why I am so upset. I went from owning my own home (equal in value to his that I bought with my own money and not a penny from anyone else), to a storage locker.

And lately our communication has gotten so bad I can’t stand to be near him. Everything I say irritates him. His replies are rude. Now you need to understand I am a positive, intelligent and respected person in my personal and professional life and liked by many......so I know it’s not me.

Of course I understand he is going through a bitter divorce and it is causing him much stress. But that stress is causing me huge amounts of stress.
I meditate to find my happy. It’s gone.

But I keep thinking there is hope with this guy.
It doesn't seem surprising that he's going through a bitter divorce. From what I see on this forum & lots of other sites about Aspergers, there seems to be two extreme types of Aspie guys. The kind you have that canNOT accommodate anybody. They NEED EVERYTHING their way, when they want, how they want. All hell breaks lose when they have to accommodate someone else in their space. I have a very hard time understanding why those types got in a relationship in the 1st place. Sometimes it's for sex, to have a live-in maid, or because the Aspie is so f#cked-up mentally that he cannot handle being by himself. I also sometimes wonder if those types are really Aspies. Sometimes the person the Aspie got in a relationship with is assuming they have Aspergers when the Aspie may have something else like Narcissism for example. I'm NOT saying your doing that thou. It's really no surprise to me that those NTs would be bitter towards Aspies.

However there's Aspies on the other extreme. For example I'm an Aspie who LOVES spending a lot of time with my partner as well as being close & affectionate with her. I like sex but I only want sex with my partner & I'd much rather have her & no sex than sex with anyone else. When we moved in to our new apartment last November, my girlfriend decided where most everything went & how things were arranged. She gave me some choices & asked for my opinion some of the time & I was OK with that. I was happy not having to figure things out. Plus she has a lot more stuff than me. I do like things my way sometimes thou. Like I'm a very picky eater who cant really cook but I'm OK with leftovers or eating fast-food, or junk-food so I'm NOT expecting my girlfriend to cook every day or anything & I do wash most of the dishes when things get low. I do like knowing plans in advance which caused lots of fights/arguments cuz my girlfriend has to change plans a lot sometimes cuz of her various issues. However I think I've gotten a lot more accepting of changing plans & she tries harder to keep em. I do get annoyed or frustrated by various things sometimes but I learned to bite my tongue a lot so to speak. It's like the saying goes, "pick your battles". I feel like total cr@p for a long while after a bad fight whereas when I bite my tongue I usually feel better a few minutes later. There are also times when I know she's very annoyed by stuff that usually doesn't really involve me but Cass sometimes appears to take things out on me. She needs her space sometimes so I try to realize I should just leave the room & give her space instead of getting upset & snapping at her. My mom gripped a lot about me being demanding & stuff. I improved a lot in some ways during the 7 & half years I've been living with Cass instead of my parents. I needed to be in a different environment. Plus getting on the rite psych meds helps a lot too. My girlfriend has a brother on the spectrum who's kinda the other extreme I mentioned & she finds me a lot easier to live with. In some ways me & him are a lot alike but we're very different in some ways as well.

Did feminists specifically say they dislike aspie men? I find it hard to believe they'd say that.

Most likely most of them don't even know the word aspie.

And if they, not in a good way due to the incel mass shooters (who are just 2 or 3? but it's enough to ruin a group reputation).

The media does like to associate people who do bad things as having certain traits such as being quiet, keeping to themselves, being an outsider or not fitting in, seeming depressed. As a result people with various mental issues are stigmatized as being bad or dangerous even if we don't mention mental stuff to others. Associating people with those traits as being dangerous could happen on a subconcience level.

That's why dogs are stigmatized as good while cats are stigmatized as evil and malicious.

The stigma I've heard most is that dogs are for boys & men & cats are for girls & old women. It may be kinda a sothern thing.

I think it's because a lot of women think that autistic guys might get violent during meltdowns and we won't know how to handle it. Women get frightened of NT guys that are violent or have a vicious temper. Even some mothers have to put their autistic son into a home once they become teenagers, because the son's aggression can be too much during meltdowns (if the son gets aggressive, not all autistics get aggressive). Autistic girls can be aggressive too but guys are naturally more stronger physically and can cause more damage, not to mention the testosterone.
