I never heard from the woman again, so I am assuming it's one of those little NT mind games. So now, my dating search is once again limited to other Aspies.

Don't bother with NT women.


Do you realize that your chances of ever being with somebody decrease by several orders of magnitude if you reject normal people as possible mates?

One girl who I kissed. But didn't like her.

The rest were in middleschool / highschool and don't really count, none lasted more than a couple weeks.

Partly cause I never call, partly cause I have trouble "falling in love".

I found two Aspie women with similar interests.

One of them was not willing to do a long-distance relationship, and has since found someone else.

The other one is still single and is willing to do a long-distance relationship, and she and I connected. But there is one problem: She is only 17 years old, and I am 27. People have suggested that I wait until she is 18, which is what I was intending to do. But she hasn't been online in months--and I am wondering if something bad had happened to her.

As for an NT woman, the only way an NT woman would date me is if I am waving a huge wad of $100 bills in front of her.

I don't purposely seek people that much younger than me. As far as age, I prefer that a partner be at least 23 years old. But the two women I mentioned were the only Aspies that had the same interests and beliefs as me, and I bent the age rules for them.

The 17-year-old promised to be my girlfriend as soon as she turned 18, and promised to marry me immediately after I finished college (in about 2-3 years). Then after two weeks of corresponding, she just stopped answering my IMs and e-mails without giving an explanation.

(This is the same woman I wrote about in the post entitled "I was lied to...by another Aspie", which can be found in the Haven folder).

I've dated (as in been on dates) with 10, been in relationships with 5, and been physical involved with those five. All except one (the most recent) were NT.
The one that wasn't NT wasn't an aspie. She had minor brain-damage from a car wreck. I loved that girl to death, but her life had been a minor slice of hell, and she couldn't be close to people. I hope she's ok.
C'est la vie.

Tried online dating and decided it was a bad strategy for me. I'd rather be alone than be with any of the girls I met in this fashion. But for many people, I think it's a great strategy.

Currently single, want to stay that way for now.
Need time...

I've had two real boyfriends including the current, one pitiful mistake posing as a boyfriend, and one stalker.

Dude, I dated an AS girl for a while. I won't do it again because I really broke her heart, and she hasn't spoken to me for 3 years now. The NT girls I dated, well, one moved to cali, and I hang out with the other about once a month (she lives to far away to hang out more than that, which is why we broke up in the first place).
