Single woman, 21, looking for boyfriend

Desperate and lonely are very different. I am far from desperate. Lonely is the standard though...

I live in London so anyone who I will potentially be serious with will have to live in London. However, I do like one off dates very much and if it is with another aspie it is well worth traveling for. I am willing to travel distance of Birmingham for such a date.

I find British culture to be quite anti-intellectual, more so than American culture.

I think American Culture has only really started becoming pro-intellectual in more recent years.

I am from New York but am going to England for the entire summer to study abroad in Middlesex. I don't know how close you are to that but or if you're going to be around then, but if you wanted to meet for a cup of coffee or something I'd be up for it

Extremely much so; it seems to me that in the UK it is social etiquette to hide all interests in academic subjects such as math and pretend to hate it as opposed to the US where it seems that following an interest is something to be proud of.

Yes, it seems especially shameful for girls to be interested in the sciences or indeed, to have a distinct air of intensity about them.
Is there anyone from England of whom might ebe interested? (thank you to all you yanks expressing interest out there though.)

They are a bunch of tossers mate, NTs on steroids.

They are a bunch of tossers mate, NTs on steroids. English NTs interest equals how much beer they can drink. Yanks are more interesting even though they contain more religious nuts.

Never been to the UK, but over here in the USA, people are very PRO or ANTI (insert topic). It's rare to find an american who can argue a point with facts and not just "that's what I heard" or "that's how I was raised". The nice thing is that you can rarely get enough of the ignorant people to agree enough to make bad things happen.. but when they do, look out..

Seems like most Americans put intellectuals on a pedestal, almost rock star/religious figure status. Einstein is a good example. If someone calls you Einstein it is either an insult "Nice move, Einstein!" or an expression of amazement, "Damn, Einstein, how'd you figure that out???". Generally people here will be insulting to people they feel are more intellegent than them, until that person creates something bigger than them. It's odd.. people think Americans are all about money, but in reality they are about power. Money is power, but they respect anyone who shows the ability to create, whether they create building, technology, music, art, wealth, political inertia, etc...

im from the Midlands in the UK, and i dont mind intelligent women, id get my head done in if i was with a woman who couldnt follow what im going on about or have her own opinion on things...

Good luck picking one. Looks like you have three pages of "potentials". If I posted something like this...

*Crickets Chirping*

thats cos your male....

guys have a harder time... cos men are less fussy

Nah. Fussiness is probably a big part of my problem. It's just another
hinderence one has to deal with.

men are less fussy in general though.....


though i think she is only doing this for attention, as i live near her and offered to date her....

still no reply

Yeah. lol. I didn't even bother. If her and I were stranded on a desert island she would probably date outside of her species. lol DAMN THEM SPIDER MONKEYS!! ALWAYS GETTING THE WOMAN!! !
