So you are saying that in a geographic location consisting of between three and four million citizens, in a state known for being a christian republican stronghold, you have already systematically sorted through them all and none of them meet your standards.

You will excuse me if I find this a little hard to believe, I hope. Of course if one of your criteria is actually that they must be "aspie" that might explain it. Do you mean they must be clinically diagnosed with Asperger's? Or just that they have to exhibit specific stereotypes you feel represent the aspie factor of an individual?

Part of the problem I'm seeing here is a lot of people building a perfect dream girl in their head and then getting upset when reality doesn't just spit that exact girl at them. I don't look for a girl who shares specific interests with me, I look for a person who shares ANY interests with me, and from there establish if we have compatible personalities. They are now my friend. They happen to be a girl. Sometimes I try and transition from there to a romantic interest, other times I will attempt to strengthen the platonic bond with them.

Most of the time though, that first stage is about as far as it gets with a girl or a guy. My understanding is this is largely true of the general population. Some people might break it down in more granularity (school chums, friends of friends, friends, close friends, immediate family, close relatives, those people who seem to show up at all the same weddings as you, etc).

Resistance is a few tiles. Your ass will be limited. (sorry, thread title keeps cracking me up, for some reason...)

Not possible. I am what I am (as Popeye would say) and I have no control over what other people find desirable.

You should walk out of the house, find friends, invite them to your apartment, go to parties, talk to people, and learn small talk, and find a girl friend in real life.

Easier said than done. Whenever I leave the house, I'm suddenly surrounded by people who I have almost nothing in common with.
