Hair too long? What does that mean?
It's been a year since I last cut mine
(pretty much down to an inch or so)
and it's past my shoulders. Last time
I cut it, it was midway down my back.
Seems to be about the limit to me -
won't grow more.

I need evidence of this.

I'm pretty certain that my wife was
aspie, and before she and I got together,
she had gone through a series of girlfriends.

She was also the one who brought most of
our prospective thirds into our relationship.

I can get them, but I can't deal with them. So I have to do without.

It's one of those things in life that you only desire when you don't possess it.

Have you tried the "friends with benefits" route? Just curious. It's the same as getting the girl, except the word "love" is not used.

This is correct. I badly suffer from "grass is greener..." syndrome.

Ah we all do! And yet there is no escape: it is in our nature to be curious, expansive, exploratory, dominating and aggressive (men) and never satisfied. Plus, there's the whole desire to reproduce-thing spurring us on. Oh well, I suppose all you can do is go with it and try to minimise the damage along the way.

It's crazy... I'll actually catch myself following a link to a dating site, and then go, "Oops -- that's right -- I don't want to date. WTF is going on?!?" My penis just hijacks my brain for a few seconds, the bastard.

Seriously. They've ruined my happy solitude by pumping my body full of testosterone, and I have seen no benefits from it whatsoever.

I didn't have trouble when I was in my early teens, but the further I get into my 20's the tougher it gets. I feel bad in a way being single all the time, but I don't even have time for a serious relationship right now with my schedule.

and that's a bad thing, having a buzy schedule? man, I'd give anything to have a buzy schedule.

Aspies can definitely have girlfriends. My boyfriend is an Aspie (I'm an NT)

I totally agree with Shale - it's all about taking care of each other.

I can get girlfriends, though they're usually few, far between, and definitely not what i end up looking for.

I attribute it more to luck than anything though....especially skill :lol:
