I don't really want a girlfriend when I'm older, as I will find life peaceful and easy on my own with nobody to pester me. Also, it avoids the risk of being stuck with a cheater for the rest of your life, or an idiot. Also, I have no interest in the opposite sex whatsoever, because some girls just make no sense to me.

Also, I know that I am academically skilled and if I get a good job when I'm older and choose to live on my own, then there's more money for me and I don't have to share it. Plus, as well as not having friends, I won't really want a girlfriend, which doesn't really bother me.

Also, I think that the act of adult kissing/snogging is rather disgusting. Some people would call that odd, but would you say that putting one's tongue into another person's mouth when kissing is perfectly clean? I often see a man and a woman/boy and a girl hugging, but I just rise above it.

I have often told my family this and on several occasions, my brother has denoted me as "the most boring person on the planet that he knows" and my mum has said that I'm "sad" (not the :cry: sort of sad, but I don't really know what it means either) or "saddo". It seems as if we all have to have a girl/boyfriend and have children, which is completely ludicrous and also a whimsical stereotype. Due to saying these to my family, my brother has denoted me as "the most boring person on the planet that he knows", which implies that if we do what most people do, then we're not boring. :?: Stupid!

I know what you mean deep-techno. I think of having a girlfriend, but I think it will never work out. I've never had a girlfriend although I'm only 14. It p*sses me off when NT girls show sympathy because I haven't got a girlfriend. Personally I don't give a sh*t as I think I'm young anyway, as I'm better on my own anyway. I might, I might not get a girlfriend who knows? I don't care. I totally agree with you.

I'll take a girlfriend please.

My (gay) roommate would ask,"Want anything from the store?" and I'd say, "Yeah, pick me up a couple o' cute girls."

I'll take a girl friend and add to that I life long partner. I'm not in for tempery. I just don't get why wouldn't you want a girlfriend? For me I see no sense in why would someone not want a partner. Either they have a life long dream that doesn't involve relationships I can see why. Well that's all I have to say.

I'm not sure, I open my heart too easily and it gets broken.

I don't think I'll bother anymore.

I have a boyfriend and I enjoy having one. However, I would not have one just for the sake of not being alone. A few months ago, it occurred to me that I could be alone forever and that that would not really bother me.
My boyfriend and I had this conversation when he, his friend and I were driving in his car yesterday:
Him: "Blah blah blah spent months chasing her. Stupid b***h."
Me: "If she was stupid and a b***h, why did you spend so long chasing her?"
Him: "I had noone for two years, remember?"
Me: "... I had noone for longer..."
Him: "But did that bother you?"
Me: "No."
Him: "Exactly."
Me: "Fair enough."

I don't think that anyone should be in a relationship just for the sake of being in one. I think that NTs are more likely to do this than autistics/Aspergians, since from what I've observed they enjoy the company of people for its own sake (rather than for things like good conversation and the sharing of mutual interests) and they get very lonely without other people.

Yeah, I can imagine why your dad would say that. If I had a son I would.

I'm married and I utterly understand it. I don't think I'd choose to change my life as it is now, but I can imagine my life if I'd taken the road not travelled, so to speak.

IMO ... just take your life (in these things) as it comes ... you might change your mind later ... you might not ... it's all okay.

All I know is it really depends on the woman - if she's needy, clingy, immature, or bossy that's a negative.

I'll take the needy and clingy ones any day :lol: (if I wasn't already getting married, that is)

Definitely don't date just to be dating. Find someone special that you get along with(very important). Seriously, everyone nowadays is looking for some secks and they wonder why no relationships work out, or to a worse degree, expect them not to work out because of that kind of relationship being "normal".

Well, you know what I mean, someone who's real pushy with it and won't let you have any breathing room - that would kill me. Nice thing is most who are like that usually stay away as it is just because they see I won't have it. Congratulations on finding a keeper btw.

I wish I could tell my friends that. A lot of them have had the opposit psychology lately - ie. that you need to date around to actually have the skills for when the right person comes along, otherwise if you don't date just to date and don't have the practical experience you won't get her either. I'd feel naive assuming there's no truth in what they're saying but then again I still do what I do just because, my sense of attraction tends not to pull through for me on that kind of thing and of course with respect to personality and emotional compatability I do keep in mind that I'm in just a bit of a different type of situation than they are.
