I don't know if this is just me, and my own personality and experiences, or to do with my AS, but I find myself drawn to girls who, tbh, don't treat me the way they "should", and aren't the most emotionally/mentally stable of people. The past 3 girls I've been seriously into/have gone out with have been A) A bit of a psychpath/narcissist, B) a huge self harmer, and feels themselves to be worthless and C) a girl who is clinically depressed, and has an extremely troubled childhood.
Is it just me? Or do other aspies on here find themselves experiencing something similar?
No it isn't just you. My last 2 exes were narcissistic drama queens who were emotionally unstable to the extreme. The most recent one was borderline and turned out to be pregnant with her previous partners baby. She drank like a fish, smoked like a chimney, and abused her psych-meds during the 2nd and 3rd trimesters. The worst thing by far about these last 2 women is they were incredibly manipulative and lacked empathy for me and the relationships fell apart because we got locked into a power struggle.
I tend to be attracted to women who are impulsive, flamboyant, exhibitionist, highly dramatic, and wear a ton of makeup + flashy clothes but are still empathic.
But the bigger problem is that I myself attract the wrong kind of girl. I was actually looking for a shy, introverted, artistic/bohemian girl who is flexible and emotionally stable but at the same time very empathic. I met someone last year who was like that, not crazy but a bit odd, and she really wasn't into me at all. Lately, odd/Aspie-ish women really don't seem to be that into me. It's the crazy drama queen types who want someone to f*ck with who keep coming my way.
