How to seduce an Aspie
Don't need to do that for me - you just need to smile and flirt with me, and grope me a bit.
Ultimately, make something awesome for him.
The pizza and canned drink or the Documentary about sex with a copy of the kama sutra?
One thing can be settled at least, though unfortunately it will not be very helpful to the OP.
Orangutans.
It is not true that most men would make it with an Orangutan if no one was looking. The most reliable figure I could find put the number for men who would make it with any animal is 8% and women at 4%. (Kinsey Report)
Orangutans are estimated to be 7 times stronger then humans. They not only could rip your arm off, but also your head and legs and then squish you into a kind of snowball.
I guarantee you that he is. Aren't you, Boo?
Having said that, I believe that in the part of the world where he's from (although not necessarily his country) women aren't generally considered to be allowed to say 'no' either.
Indeed. Say no to a man in certain countries, and you might get acid thrown all over your face.
Thank you everyone for your replies. Some I feel are a bit hostile, which I understand. If the roles were the other way around I would even think the story to be dodgy. But that's because, I believe, every story is different. It's hard to explain everything in detail and my story was interpreted in ways I thought were not even possible. Incorrigible, I'm really sorry about your son but I would rather throw myself off a cliff rather than harass a person. I also did not have a great time at school and boys would make fun of me all the time (I was a chubby, shy girl), it's not something I wish for anyone. I hope your son recovers, I hope he can understand, I hope he can forgive.
I kissed this man in a situation of closeness, after having spent the evening together, after some talking. The moment felt right and, as many people thankfully pointed out, his first "no" a few weeks back seemed to me like some defence mechanism otherwise he would not choose to spend so much time with me. I would not spend much time with someone I felt threatened by, I don't see why he would, Aspie or non-Aspie. He's willingly spent time with me since my physical attempt to kiss him. He still looks at me smiling, in that very charming way he has. I really hope he did not feel harassed by me. I will ask him when the moment is right.
Your comments have given me a lot to think about. It is pretentious of me to think that by writing in this forum I can understand what is happening between me and this man better. Only by talking with him and by spending time with him I can understand him better. This was indeed helpful advice from some of you (to get to know him better). Although you all gave me helpful advice. Not sure about the hammer If I were some perverted rapist I would have just kept bothering this guy, I wouldn't have cared about advice. My best friend actually advised me to write in a forum. Not because Aspies are weird and different so they need interpretation, but because there's always room for learning about different behaviours and different people than ourselves, and my best friend does not always cut it. I did not know Asperger's existed until I met this man. Sometimes it's helpful to reach out further if the understanding does not spontaneously spring out from within. I'm truly sorry my story and my need for advice made some of you feel uncomfortable.
I will write about any development in whatever is going on between me and mr shy housemate. I will definitely not do anything out of the blue and physical until he does it first, that's one decision I've taken. It might take forever, it might never happen, it's a chance I think I need to take now. And if he does wish to be close to me and he achieves that, it will help him take a step beyond his comfortable space and routine. If he doesn't care about me and does not wish to be with me in any way, well that's that. I hope he will, though. Time will tell. Cheers everyone.
Ds is well supported and in a safe situation now, where he isn't under the authority of ANY of the individuals that continue to allow that group of girls to victimize incoming freshman. The attitude that men are incapable of or don't have the right to say no has become incredibly pervasive in our society, though. Younger females are being raised to do exactly what many of the previous posters have said...never accept no from a man, and never accept that he may not be interested in you. Just try harder or become more aggressive when he rejects you, and if all else fails you should take what you want by force. And if he complains about you forcing yourself on him, you are the victim! He should know his place and is dishonest and manipulative if he ever tries to stand up for himself.
Sorry to hear all of that about your son. I feel this post needs to be noted because it's very apparent that there is still a lot of sexism around, and that it is dangerous to think that only females can ever be victims. It is so narrow minded to think that women are the weaker sex, or that it is only inappropriate to hit women instead of anyone and everyone. It's all those same concepts that should be rid of in today's world. That and gender roles will be the death of us if we keep them around and support them.
Not saying that the OP is a monster or anything. There are far worse stories I've heard of actual rape happening, and worse yet because police or the court won't do anything about them, but I do still think it is wrong on at least some level to enter another's personal space without consent.

Well said & I wish you luck with this.
me thinks the OP will wait forever.
you know sometimes routine needs to be broken. If you see someone that combs their hair using a fork, and you know that there is an actual comb that will be better for the purpose. then why not inform him and help by replacing the fork with a comb. Even if they throw a tantrum. They need to break their routine some how and see the benefits for themselves. Nobody is sticking the fork up his ass. (which would be classified as rape)
It's OK; no problem.
That's probably because we don't have an in-depth knowledge of the situation like you do. We're not there, after all - you are.
If you think that the roles were the other way round make the story look dodgy, what makes it different in this case where they aren't?
True. Very true.
OK, fair enough. Just as long as you can understand people's concern.
Are you still chubby and shy? Then the object of your affection is a lucky bastard...
From what you say, it doesn't (to me anyway) sound like it's abusive.
Good.
A lot of people are like that though. They believe that people with autism or Asperger's are all the same and this couldn't be further from the truth.
This is quite true.
The idea behind the sledgehammer is that you might have to take that approach to telling him you like him. With a lot of people who have Asperger's, simply flirting with them and dropping hints will get you nowhere and won't do you any good because either they won't recognise these hints or they won't know how to act on them (or even if they are actually being flirted at with the intention of taking things further).
I wasn't suggesting that you were a "some perverted rapist"; what I was suggesting is that you might have been ignoring (inadvertently or not) someone's expressed boundaries. That doesn't make you a rapist, but it did concern some people here - myself included.
Good for your best friend!
Good for you! You appear to be broadly on the right track.
It hasn't - all that we worried about is that (as it read to us) that boundaries were potentially being breached. If this isn't happening, then you have nothing to worry about. It's quite simple, really.
Excellent!
If you do it like that you'll be waiting forever. Stop this idea of dropping hints. You'll just get frustrated with yourself and with him. No.
Just gradually work up, with ever stronger hints, towards to being very upfront and direct with him in your wishes - if you want something from him, you're literally going to have to tell him what you want and if he likes that idea/agrees. What I was suggesting in my original post is that you cut to the point with him in a way that does not leave any room for ambiguity or for reinterpretation in his head. (That's what I meant by the sledgehammer!)
Good luck to you anyway. Please come back often and fill us all in - the world needs to know.

Boy this burns me... and people refuse to believe me that certain aspects of feminism have gone too far and are causing irreparable harm to both genders!
It burnt me, it burned your boy... I fear for my two sons!

A friend of mine respected all women and rejected a girl that wanted to have sex with him and he was insulted and accused of being gay by his (male) friends. There are men that think "masculinity" = sex with a lot of women, and that means that you can't never reject them. So we can't forget that some men's loud-mouths are very harmful and other men are the scapegoats. Both genders from society cooperate to make us standarized . Both genders are very, very, very stereotyped. People say it's unfair but... who maintains those stereotypes???
About the school decision, pretty lame, a lot of adults are dangerously incompetents and the boy is a double victim.

feminism hasn't created the idea that men can't be raped. that idea predated feminism.

Very true... can't find the video clip to go with that, but yeah - if a man claims a woman touched him in a way that makes him feel icky he'll simply be laughed at by everyone from peers to the legal system.
Thanks for not immediately flipping it around to turn the focus back to how baaad men are. There's no denying that some very bad, one-sided decisions are being made here n' there.

it's an unfair system at the moment, and i'd like to se that changed. it's wrong that men can be abused but treated differently by society and the legal system, yet it happens every day. i won't deny there is a problem that needs to be fixed
