It's easier to meet people in the real world.

Post Reply New Topic

I've officially given up on dating sites, as I seem to have better luck meeting people in person.

Maybe it helps that I'm not competing with people who lie about their looks, age, and height.
Income is questionable, but I also skip having to figure out a way to describe my personality
in a way that's not creepy. It's so much easier if they just meet me in real life. XD

Plus, being able to read their face for indications of interest is a big help. Body language FTW...

Yeah im beginning to view in person as the primary way to go and the online sites as a bonus. Like having an account and messaging some girls on there can't hurt. But, dont have too high of expectations from online dating.

There is nobody for me to meet in person though... online seems to be a last resort, but it's still the only resort for someone like me...

Why would you think that? Don't be so negative, ive been trying to be as positve as i can lately, you should too!

In person doesn't work for me either. There just aren't any single women within an appropriate age range for me to interact with. Every time I meet a female, she's either married or has a boyfriend or she's 12 years younger than I am.

Shut up and start trying for once instead of constantly moaning about the problem and have no intention of attempting to do something about it (same goes the other guys in here saying similar things)

Free Dating sites are a waste of time because the majority of women on there either are not what they portray themselves to be or have their standards too high and/or are just completely up themselves (not realising that's the reason half of them have ended up on there in the first place)

If you want someone that badly get out into the real world and start pursuing.

I don't take meeting people online seriously. Unless they are a long time friend. I've only ever met one person online who has become a long time friend.

What is wrong with a woman 12 years younger then you?

Some women are more attracted to older men and it could be a very successful relationship.

Same here, but I don't know where to start.

I don't like clubs because of the noise and atmosphere.

Perhaps rather than being critical of others you should share your success stories and the ways in which you pursued your endevours that lead to a successful outcome? It would be more beneficial for people to read of such experiances, it would be more positve and it would be more compassionate then simply telling people to STFU and tell them to do something they clearly are having a problem with. Do you go up to people in wheel chairs and tell them to stop being so lazy and walk like the rest of us? You do realise your on a forum full of autistic spazz's we arn't here for the colour scheme thats for sure

I for one am encapsulated and enthralled and beeming with anticipiation to hear how the undiscovered playa of wrong planet mr Daemonic Jackal has got his mack on with the ladies of the greater manchester area.

If you are going to resort to being a patronising prick just because I've said something you don't like you can STFU as well (as you so nicely put it) I don't consider myself that successful when it comes to women I always get badly burned once I'm in relationships but I don't let that it stop me trying again and again until hopefully I might meet mrs right one day. That's the difference between me and a lot of others on here, I don't let the bad experiences I've had completely effect the rest of my life. Tell you what maybe I'll stop posting on here, as I'm clearly not 'Aspie enough' to fit in.

Comparing someone who doesn't even try (not trying being the key factor here, not being unsuccessful but making no attempt to help change the situation) to pursue anyone they might be interested, to someone who is cursed to a wheelchair is absolutely moronic as the person trapped in the wheelchair cannot change their situation.

Some people on here also need to stop using their Autism as an excuse for all of their problems in their lives, it doesn't stop me doing anything that I want to do in my life, and I'm sure there are others on here who could do the same if they bothered to put the effort in.

Right now, a woman 12 years younger than me would be 20. That just seems creepy to me. I know people would think it's cool just to have sex with them, but I'd want more than that. If we were older, it'd be different. If I was 42 and she was 30 that's not a big deal, but at 20, hell, she's still a kid.

I may have bad luck with meeting anyone online but my luck offline is worse. There's not many places to meet people in my area except for work or school & that never worked for me because I'm socially retorted & kept making the mistake of hitting on lesbians; I didn't know they were gay. I don't have that problem online because I can search for women seeking men. I haven't worked in a couple years so I have no way of meeting people offline anyways rite now
