I am a 28 year old single female, who has been on a date only twice. I had tried e-harmony, until that got too expensive to keep paying every month. My mom had tried to set up a date where the guy could meet me, but ultimately he wasn't interested in keeping on dating as we lived too far apart. The other guy I dated was too dominant.
Its not that I never had guys become interested in me, as apparently they seem to find me pretty and so will look at me, but they never seem to ask me out. I seem to either not give off the 'proper signals' that signify interest, or it is 'culture' today for the female to ask the guy out. I don't know.
I don't wear makeup, and I love Star Wars and video games, so I wish I could find a man who a had simular interests.
I just wish I could find a guy.

I'll let you have me.

It seems that you're illiciting quite a response on here from making your interests and the desire to find a guy thing stated... so I'd have to say the trick is to somehow convey that same meaning into what proper body language signals / indirect hint type format that in-person encounters seem to require to get the same result. I wouldn't say it's the culture aspect too much.
Sorry I can't be much more helpful than that, besides mentioning that I'm also in New Jersey, and while I may have lost interest in video games ever since I broke my addiction of them (i.e. I like video games too much), I like Star Wars quite a lot and I'm also very interested in not wearing makeup too.

Please don't say that's a deal breaker, if 2 or 3 hours keeps you from finding someone then that's part of the problem. The whole world is open now with the internet.

No, I wasn't saying that it was a deal breaker... quite the opposite, really. 2-3 hours is something that I could drive quite easily. I could get down to Philly, spend the day there, and be able to make it home. However, if I were to go to Pittsburgh, that would necessitate overnight staying, or a round-trip flight on the same day, which would really complicate things a lot...

Come to think of it, there's a woman at my workplace like this as well - likely either depressed or an Aspie, or both.
The moment I saw her my first day at work, I developed a huge crush on her. However, I'm married, so I can only admire from afar, as it should be. She doesn't like me that way anyways, from what I can tell, so no worries there
She's exactly what I like -- Chinese-American, certain look to her, very pale skin, a certain kind of face, intelligent, well-read -- while some people think she's pretty, she's not at the top of anyone's list by far. She's also 35 and apparently not in a relationship, though she may have had one in the past with a guy whose pic and facebook responses seem to peg him as an Aspie (they apparently are not together). She does some Aspie things (like twisting), and comes off as cold, disinterested, or sour.
I think it's a shame -- to me, she's gorgeous, and she does have a great smile and some good humor when you get it out of her. I think she is probably overly picky, but also probably one who is hard to live with or around -- for instance, she lives with her sister right now after moving out here from another state, but she and her sister are not on great terms (there's an age gulf as well).
From what I can tell on her facebook page, she doesn't have a BF, doesn't seem to spend a lot of time with guys, just female friends, but isn't gay (her friends are homely but not lesbian or masculine). I do wish she was happy, and I still lust after her a bit too much (in my mind) when I'm around her, because she physically reminds me of several ex girlfriends and crushes.

I am glad I am not married to someone that knows all of that about a girl he is infatuated with!

Do you ever window shop for something you have no intention of buying? It's a harsh truth, but most guys look, even when they're perfectly happy at home. I have no intention of ever trading what I have for that person, but it is a person I can't help but feel something for due to various factors. I've seen the same behavior from woman coworkers as well (including towards my long-married self), so I think this is just a human thing.
And in my case, I happen to be nosy and a people watcher. I just think it's such a waste -- attractive woman, not taking care of her skin or dressing well (because she works around tech dorks all day, I guess, but there must be more). I think she's unhappy, but she's not doing what it takes to be happy.
seriously dude, you are starting to sound creepy.
Merle
Umm... we're aspies here - if we don't seem creepy we're not doing it right... *giggle*
Give the guy a break - he's open enough to share his POV. And his POV is on topic...
