I met my GF as she started getting bigger off of my right wrist as I got older. She doesn't talk, her five sisters adore me, and she knows all the sweet spots. :lol:

I met my first boyfriend because he was friends with a guy that was my roommate.
I met my second bf because he was my roommate :/
My third bf was a purely online relationship. We met on a music site.
I met my next bf online (not dating site). He lived overseas but he came to my country to see me and we had an albeit brief but intense relationship which ended when we realised neither of us wanted to move to the other country permanently.
I met my fifth bf online (not dating site) although we decided to meet because it turned out we both went to the same mental health clinic ! (wouldn't recommend this as a basis for anyone else's relationship hah)
I met my next bf originally because he was friends with my second bf however ages after second bf and i broke up, we got together.
I met my next bf at a club next to my work. I would go there after work occasionally. He was a security guard there.
Then I had a bf that was again only online. He lived on another continent. Same with the one after, although he ended up coming to mine, but not before I'd broken up with him.
I met my next and last bf online however again not on a dating site (i've never met a partner on a dating site). We lived close and saw each other frequently, although the relationship ended very very badly 18 months later :(

IT seems I have most success meeting guys online, probably because I have really bad social anxiety (which doesn't transfer to online luckily).

If you approach someone on a dating site about dating your request will be taken far more seriously

Unless of course you have brilliant social skills and you can just approach any stranger on the streets and get them to agree to get to know you better and whatnot, on which case you dont need dating sites


that's just the problem. folks who date on the internet just want the easy way out. technology is not always gonna solve everyone's issues and they aren't willing to put effort into stepping out of their comfort zone to meet people in person.

logically, you can't just approach a person and ask him/her straight up "can i date you?" just like that. it's a no-brainer; you will obviously get funny looks for that. make an effort to get to know a living, breathing person inside and out. if there's chemistry between the two people, maybe you can ask them out on a date.

a computer won't give you kindness and love, or validation that you deserve. it's a tool that can be used by individuals who take advantage of others in a negative and in a dangerous way. people will eventually make up lies to lure their victims to them.
believe me, it almost happened to me and i don't wanna go through that again.
no one can achieve being loved in front of a screen.

please be careful with dating online! you'll never know what the outcome might be. ESPECIALLY FOR US ON THE SPECTRUM!


The point isn't to date on the internet. The point is to use it to meet people in real life. Yeah, it can be dangerous, but so can everything else. Just take extra precautions and meet in a public place for the first few times. Take along some pepper spray, whether you're a guy or girl.

It beat having to decipher who's interested the NT way, or get burned misreading people (why many aspie guys get called creeps). The alternative is to put on makeup, look pretty, and wait for women to ask me out. Sadly, it's easier said than done. The only ones who typically fall for that trick are gay guys. lol

i've had two GFs to speak of. i dropped alot of weight after turning 18 and got overwhelmed by female attention.
my first lasted 2 years, with on and off, and we were both virgins when we first met. she was into innocence i think, and got bored with me.

my current has lasted 5.5 years now. i got very lucky, and she broke through my social barriers at work and drew me in with shared interests. then we found ourselves crazy compatible. she's genderqueer, with schitzoid tendencies... so two peas in a pod. thank gods she's more social then me and can make phone calls and such.

besides physical compatibility i think she had me for life when we did our first mutual world-building project together. she adds in the social aspects while i do the technical, and everything just meshes great. we each have our obsessions but sharing is really awesome.. it's like finding a missing piece of my brain and hard-wiring it back again. she is very rational and patient and easily as intelligent as myself. i really fell in love with her mind first.

funny thing is that she is highly attracted to aspie traits, in males and females.
