Never expect things to go your way, and always have a plan B.

Plan B is for those who don't have the will to see plan A to fruition, or follow it to hell.

Nah, just for those who live in the real world.

You can't expect A + B to equal a desired outcome if one of those variables is another person... humans are about as random as variables get! 
It's just like any other kind of troubleshooting... if one thing doesn't work - try another. The best troubleshooters simply have more things to try until one works.

I don't troubleshoot, I throw it out and buy another, or, pay someone else to fix it.

It's less trouble in the long run. The only trick is, you aren't allowed to do it to people.

I think the idea was that you should troubleshoot your own attitudes and preconceptions of what a relationship should be. Based on the things you've said here, I can easily imagine even those who do meet your standards being put off by your expectations and the way you word them.

No, you are assuming that I speak to people in real life the way that I type on this forum

About finding a girl on these sites. Don't want to sound cliché but in life there's no guarantees. You got nothing to lose in messaging them. Might be the next one you talk to might be the 1000th. I personally don't pin my hope on dating sites because they don't work for my type of personality (and by the sound of things many other aspies as well).

Good point. Many aspie men are at the mercy of these sites, though, because of their limited social circle.
