How do some people get partners so easily?

Without wanting to generalise, you don't sound like an individual who is on the spectrum to me.

How do you think I feel?

That summarises my entir dating life.

The girls meet through family and friend D's are bogan, smoke you g and pregnant with some scumbag criminal no show ex, can't take care of their health or appearance, dont care about their mental health, etc.

And middle class nt girls are lightyears ahead of me and would probbably lump me jnto the 'lazy neet guy who sits around smoking weed or gaming or interneting all day everyday.'

Completely wanting to generalize for brevities sake: Told ya so.

Long story short: ~4 years ago I figured out how to successfully treat my ASD symptoms. I still have (mostly positive) traits, but have managed to work out a protocol that minimizes or eliminates all of the negative symptoms. I've been sharing that here for more than 3 years and the general consensus is that people here don't believe me. W/e, I'm living a happier, healthier, wealthier life for it and continue to be an open book about it sharing it with anyone who'd care to discuss it. I can also reverse what I've done and bring ASD symptoms back and amplify them, too. I can literally manipulate my body and brain to be diagnosable, or, as I prefer to live day to day, so high functioning that I'd have to point out my ASD traits to an expert in order to have them believe me.

It is what it is.. and just like my signature said for a couple of years: Just because you don't believe me doesn't make me a liar.

I used to hate that stuff, too. It was frustrating seeing my friends in relationships, careers, and having money & other successes I hadn't managed yet. ~5 years ago I was $110K in debt then bankrupt, out of shape, horribly depressed and very ASD. I was a mess. Anything to the contrary seemed impossible. Now, while I don't have a fancy career title, I've been back to work for a few years, I have more money than most of my friends as I've rocketed passed them in savings & investments because they have high rent or mortgage payments, wives & babies etc. Not that life's a race, but it's human nature to be competitive and compare, but now? Yeah.. in so many ways I'm light years ahead of them!! Not in the relationship department yet, but w/e, at least things are looking way way up all around and ya never know I might just end up in a LTR just the same as my heterosexual NT counterparts. And maybe not ?? w/e, doesn't matter, as I have other goals that take priority besides relationship stuff.

I guess my point is that these things, and thoughts and perspectives and situations etc, can ALL change if you change and your thoughts and reactions to them change.

Better the people like me who never be loved and end up killing themselves before 40

Well, let's not assume that those people who have had those lasting relationships DON'T have something horribly wrong with them. I am surrounded by 30-somethings who are married and/or in long term relationships and seem incredibly unhappy to me. I think a lot of people don't like the criticism and social pressure that comes with being single in their 30s and are willing to be in a bad relationship rather than be alone. I made that mistake with my last boyfriend, and I gotta say, better to be alone than dating someone that makes you unhappy.

How do you do that?

With science. And hard work. And discipline. And natural medicine. And time. And patience. And determination.. all those things. But mostly science. I'll PM you.

I'd be interested to know too if you don't mind.

how can you be sure that's how they see you?

if there were some way to convince people. you aren't a snob or a bogan, that would only help you massively i think. stuff like charity work is, stereotypically, uncharacteristic of both.

if they know you're neither a snob nor bogan, that'd come off as someone who is uncomplicated, easy to get along with, and trust me, LOTS of people would prefer that than someone wild.

To summarise what I have observed, and notes from the books and psychologists. Why people get partners so easily?

1. Females have a choice, yes or no. But a guy have to deal with a no.
2. Socially charismatic and popular person attracts more attention socially, hence they have a higher chance of mating with someone
3. Society used to NT negativity, but not ASD negativity, hence rebound relationships works in NT negativity
4. Social media popularity contest; amount of how many friends, likes and comments to maximise their attentions
5. Fashion, films and photos of themselves making them look attractive - makeups, clothes and stereotypes
6. Majority of the society is socially lazy people, they don't be bothered on intelligence.
7. Socially accepting alcoholism
8. Superficial values attracts superfilism.

if by alcoholism you mean recreational drinking, then yeah, i can see how the "loosening up" feeling it gives many people can contribute to an increased ability to form relationships.

but i hardly think as many people accept those commonly referred to as alcoholics, with the far more severe scourge known as "alchoholism".

when it comes to success in anything, i like to think that success is sort of like a habit, guys who had girlfriends, had good positive experiences with girls early on in life, it tends to set them up for a good positive upward spiral with girls later on

^ So if you didn't have a girlfriend in your teens you're kind of screwed.

well i like to think of it as a snowball effect, the longer you go without having had a first, the harder it gets it seems, as for you RetroGamer87, i believe you have had girlfriends before at least, how old were you when you got your first?

I had two girlfriends in high school, but no, eve if I start going to university or find another way to meet girls again, I doubt things will be going on the upward spiral for me.

I may have had two girlfriends but I have still never felt truly 'loved', my first gf was a bad relationship and her feelings for me were on-again, off-again.

She dumped me after 12 days. The entire time things felt very one-sided and I wasn't even sure if she liked me back, and I guess she really didn't because she 'lost her feelings for me' when she dumped me.

We got back together a month later and I slept over at her house the same night we got back together. She told me 3 days later she realized that night was a mistake.

My second girlfriend, we had a fun in the first two weeks but I was very anxious and kept feeling afraid she'd break up with me any minute because I was so jaded by my previous relationship, and she was standoffish at times, asking for 'a break' away from me for a few weeks, making excuses why I couldn't visit her house because it's a 'mess', etc.

I've never truly felt 'loved' and while I have been catcalled a few times still have low-self esteem and feel like women aren't attracted to my body.

I have low-self esteem about my body even though my body is completely average, I am 5'9'' and 160lbs, not skinny or ripped but medium for 18, I have a decent amount of mass on me due to the fact I used to weightlift before my wrist injury which I'll get back into soon.
