Smiling in photos was unnatural for me, but the girl probably wants the kind of photo where she can see what you look like when she makes you happy rather than the kind of photo that shows her what you look like when she puts the meat on the wrong shelf in the fridge.

:lol:

I've never had a girlfriend.

What do I blame? I don't think it's my looks, but I can't be sure...I really don't know how to rate male looks. I see some pretty fat guys with decent-looking girlfriends.

Personality? Yep...Aspergers....introverted.....not sociable.....don't have a very masculine personality. Don't like sports or stuff like that. And I'm definitely not a bad boy.

I'm unemployed right now, so that obviously plays some role. But I've been employed in the past, and it didn't seem to help my case.

Go to a college with a solid LGBT club. You're bound to find a bunch there. At least there were at the college I went to. :)

Hi Sad Aspy :)

I'm in the same boat. I blame it on my personality (which includes Aspergers). Not masculine enough. Not into sports, etc. I have a job now, but it has not changed my loveless situation one bit. I am still a weak submissive beta male with no bad boy qualities.

I just don't care.
I do fancy girls, but I don't like being touched, think kissing is a meaningless, awkward and by no means enjoyable thing to do, and I seriously wouldn't know what to say to the same person every single day. And contrary to my peers, who seem to have a desperate need to chase every female creature on this planet, I don't have much of a sex drive that would justify going through all this misery.
Perhaps if I stumble across somebody interesting and attractive down the road I would bother to try and have a relationship but right now I'm fine with (that part of) my life. :)

Lack of trying, misunderstandings, the usual.

Because I...

1) don't have a job,
2) My health is bad,
3) I can't drive a car
4) My bad body odor turns women off. My health and hygiene is pretty bad. I have a lot of pubic hair too and women don't like that.

I also vomit a lot (especially after I wake up) and I always feel hungry, even after I've just eaten. I'm also weak and tired most of the time.

I wish I was as strong as say Lance Armstrong or Alberto Contador (you know road racing champions) because then many girls would be after me because girls love strong and athletic men.

Because girls think I'm ugly :( plus I'm pretty nerdy :nerdy:

Girls in my neck of the woods aren't into personality, it's all about looks :!:

Yeah, me too. Add to it that I may not have noticed when some girl may actually have been interested in me...

Does watching car races on TV count as liking sports?

In your case, how come you have never had a girlfriend?

Do you blame your problems with women on your looks, personality, asexuality, or the fact that no woman seems to find any trait you possess attractive enough to want to date you?


Never.
Because I'm straight.

Society is changing from what I remember it being. Now that I'm in college, everyone has a relationship, and prefers their "space". So talking to people becomes more complex.

I want to give up on trying to find someone. I'm starting to use my illness as an excuse to gain peoples sympathies even though I don't say/mention anything about it, I still feel like I tried to gain their sympathy on purpose.

When I do gain someones sympathy/praise for something it feels wrong.
I kinda wish I could relive the days before this Ego of myself was formed.
I miss the days where I could accept criticism.
Lately, in college I feel selfish, and only thinking of myself.

The only ones who enjoy me are those "smiling toddlers" at the supermarket.
You wave at them and they wave back, You smile at them, they smile back.
Children at a very young age, don't really think about race/gender/diseases.
I guess it makes them easier to talk to, since they don't know what an Asperger/Autistic person is.

it would take a very special girl to be with me, she would have to be a little unstable herself, a steady stable girly NT wouldn't be able to handle me. Maybe a bipolar.

I deliiberatly want someone with a lot of baggage of their own so that we must rely on eachother, and we both know what it's like to live that..sort of life.


I can already tell you that type of relationship would be a ton of drama and wouldnt work out. If the two of you are so unstable you guys are just gonna end up screwing each other over. I personally think that for anyone who is horribly insecure and wants a significant other to make them more secure, thats a pretty bad mindset to have.

I have had 11 partners, and never have had or ever will have a "real" girlfriend. I didn't decide on this until I was in my late 20s.

I tried, really hard, and when I was a teenager all I wanted was a nice girlfriend. I failed miserably at courtship, again and again. But I won't blame myself. It's not my fault I have AS.

The focus gradually turned to losing my virginity, and I have long decided that ultra-casual relationships are, for me, far more genuine, rewarding, and fulfilling than the "real" thing. In fact I have only been with one person more than once.
