Yes, let's make them worse, why don't we? Avoiding someone is a great way to cure his or her personality disorder.

Sorry, I'm a little mad today.

almost every woman that has "liked" me is a combination of 1, 2, and 6...

On the other hand, I'm probably one of those "dream killing keiths", although I only say it's impossible if I think it truly is, otherwise I would say go for it...

I shall have to be careful not to be any of these! I am quite certain that I and many others can be made to look evil and toxic by the standards set forth in some of these popular articles!

After reading those, I am warning everyone to avoid me at all costs. :P There have been times where I've fit every one or those, in one form or another, except #8. Hmm....personality disorder anyone? Or am I just plain psycho? :geek:


:lmao:

A woman I had pursued a while back had virtually all of the personalities listed on there.

She was the only female Aspie who was a conservative Christian and had the same interests as me.

She accused me of not communicating and not being open, yet she was acting as if she was always trying to hide something, and suddenly went from e-mailing me once a day, to once a month. I talked to her about it, and she promised to be more conscientious about answering my e-mails, but she would later break her promise. Then just a few months ago, she stopped answering my e-mails altogether and blocked me from her IM, without giving me an explanation, and I know I didn't do or say anything to offend her.

She wanted me to express my feelings about a possible relationship, only for me to find out that my feelings never mattered, because she wasn't going to compromise on anything. It was her way or the highway. She did not want a long-distance relationship, yet her town was only a 2-hour drive from me, which isn't that far. She accused me of not having the personality type she wanted, even though I had it from the very beginning. And if I tried to improve myself (which would normally be a good thing), her fear was that her judgment would be "misguided".

And she has a history of dumping guys when they cause her any sort of inconvenience.

And I had limited myself to other Aspies because I was somehow convinced that Aspies don't do those kinds of things.

"Dream-killing Keiths"
LOL. They couldn't come up with a name that starts with a "D"??? How about "Killjoy Keiths"? It means the same thing as what the author described, but doesn't sound cheesy.

I liked the article, it was pretty insightful and despite the corny names it was all helpful information. I'll admit, I at one time had a big crush on a "Narcissistic Nancy" if you will or should I say .......(I ain't gonna mention her real name). Anyways, I didn't see how narcissistic she really was until everyone she knew saw it before me and once they reflected on her personality, I quickly saw it. I still to this day am greatful I never went into a relationship with her because my life would probably be about making her happy and pleasing her while I would mean nothing to her. I got to tell you, physical attraction and lust is a b***h. Why are the good looking girls crazy? (sorry if I offend non-crazy women).

My last gf was numbers 1,6,7 and 8. No wonder that was such a horrible relationship, haha.

As the planet turns, Mary has had a torrid affair with Danny but he dissed her so she conned him into dating Debbie who then coerced Danny into a suicide pact.

Meanwhile, Jim, scorning this scandal, falls for Nellie who incites in him panic for not meeting her expectations so Jim turns to Illissa for companionship, all the while unaware that in fact Illissa is playing with Keith.....

<cue organ music>

Then, Keith overpowers Illissa who has proven to be not worth her weight in this measly relationship. Nancy then 'converts' Illissa into a lesbian relationship against Illissa's true orientation which results in a murder/suicide.

The end. Kleenex ensues for the sentimental.

Next???

Neither are Aspies.

Unfortunately I fit into some of these catergories definately not 1 though but a couple of close friends of mine who I try and keep myself distant from fit into 1,2. It is definitely survival of the fittest in the dating world especially for aspies. To be more precise an f-ing minefield. You find that there are more people to avoid than to trust. Sorry I think I am fitting into 3. Crucify me. Hehe.

^^ I perhaps believe that the article appears to have some of the traits they list, as the article appears to be very judgmental and "black and white" in its classification. ^^ Sorry if this is horrible however.
