the aspergers thing can be off putting to some as severity of AS varies a lot. Ive seen some of your videos and you are definitely more lively than the stereotypical aspie. I do think its something you should tell someone if you are going to have a relationship, but it can wait until they get to know you for who you are and not your label

lol heaps of people have looked by no messages. Its the same on every dating site I'm on, something must put them off, lol.

Well I would certainly be drawn to your picture (you are very beautiful, btw

), but I'm not sure how I would approach you, given what you wrote on your profile. You give a nice explanation of your interests, a bit of background regarding AS, but not too much about your humor- though you mention you like to "take the mick" out of people- maybe you should elaborate a little bit about it. After all, all of the hundreds of inevitable suitors waiting to sweep you off your feet you will be attracting in time do need something to work with to talk to you about!

A humorous conversation is the best kind of start imo

Thanks for the feedback.

Yes, I should elaborate more.

So far I have seen WP superstars MXH and TeaEarlGreyhot on there.

Heh, yeah I got curious about what you put on there. Interestingly enough, I haven't visited OKCupid in close to 2 months (maybe longer) and came back to messages and I saw I average 16 views a week.

Weird.

I was just browsing the site out of boredom.

I think, to guys who use this site, do NOT beat yourself up. Please do not.

There are a lot of men on this site that women are probably throwing martinis in each others faces to get a piece of.

It will be a lot harder to attract an average lady's attention on here because they can so easily talk to these men when they wouldn't have a chance to in real life.

So to be honest.. a guy using ok cupid probably has a HARDER time of finding someone than IRL.

Don't think it's you. It's not.

I'll sign up as a woman then and get martinis for free.

Time to prepare some empty bottles.

Thing is, it pretty much is. I gave up on "IRL" thats why I'm having to resort to dating sites.

I clicked your profile link, I doubt I'd message you based on your rather scanty profile, well, that and the fact we live about 8000 miles apart. But, and this isn't saying you aren't attractive, I wouldn't approach you "IRL" either..

Thanks MXH. I answered about a million questions too.

http://www.okcupid.com/profile/glitter-sparkle

I've had 6 people look but no messages.

I've just had a look at your profile now and see nothing wrong with it, however you might want to take this part out.

Note: I get messages from people asking if they can ask me a question. I am not easily grossed out or closed minded. If you have a question, just ask it, you don't need to ask for permission

The only reason I say that is because quite a lot of women on that site are very over-defensive or too picky to the point where they're ruling out almost everyone who looks at their profile. That's why a lot of the guys on there get nervous and ask if they can ask you a question.

Very nice photo btw.

You should turn gay for me, MXH.

Seriously tho, you're just 75%, not my highest % among my visitors.

The highest % goes to a local girl that I'v knew her before from a Lebanese forum, she's someone I chat with her and she invited me for a one-to-one meetup - twice; however she cancelled the day before - twice.

She indirectly explained later that she doesn't want an introvert, especially INTJ (bad experience with this type of personality) ; something that I've mentioned during a chat convo before the promised first meetup (and probably she got hesitated and flaked?). I've learned from that to keep my mouth shut and not talk too much before any kind of date/meetup. :-|

After likes months she apparently created an account on okcupid and she sent me a message "are you boo?" :lol:

, matching % was 89%. She didn't show any intention of approaching tho again.

I dunno, I messaged a woman who had a 92% match with me on my first day using it and got a response within hours.. of course then I went and screwed it up.. because I didn't realize that when it says "dating site" it means "Talk online for 5 months before asking them out"..
