Coping With Prolonged & Involuntary Romantic Isolation?

Post Reply New Topic

The one thing all the short men I know have in common is that they are all a)married and b)have been for quite some time. If height was such a big deal, it would not have taken years for me to find someone. If anything I found women didn't like the height discrepancy and want someone closer to their own height.

I've got to say if we are going to acknowledge obvious things like looks and height we should acknowledge ways of standing, haircuts, body language, clothing. These could all outweigh height.

The married shorter guys are probably more normal and less annoying than short aspies.

I say date an Aspie!

I'm more interested in Aspies or people a bit on the weird side anyways. I feel more comfortable around them and I think their more interesting than NTs. I'm okay looking I think, I've never had much problem getting girls attention. Or rather they're usually the ones giving me attention. My problem is the ones I usually get a crush on or is interested in I can't get because I get stupidly nervous and make a fool out of myself and I overthink everything. But I'm generally a positive and optimistic person to be around and I don't shy away from being social, that helps getting girls attention even though I'm an introvert. I also go to a lot of different places to meet people and that increases my chances finding interesting girls I might have something in common with. My goal is not picking up girls doing this but rather meeting interesting people of all kinds and of both genders. This is how I get friends and If I'm lucky someone who want something more.

Another tip is always try be presentable and clean when out among people. Get new outfits occasionally, watch what other people do and how they dress. Usually there's a certain fashion going on. Try emulate some of that stuff even though it might look stupid and pointless it's actually not, It's useful as a way of getting attention. You don't have to go all the way out and be super hip, that I would fail at pretty fast But a certain degree of sensing what's going on in that world is useful. At least that is what I do and what I think is important getting the attention of girls.

What was your relationship with your mother like when you were growing up?

After reading the other threads about how NT women are emotionally damaged by their AS partners, I would never want an NT partner.
I couldn't deal with that amount of clinginess, and them being upset that I wasn't communicating with them constantly about every little thing, and then expecting me to read their minds about it all.
It would kill me.
