is it typical for aspies to lose interest in a relationship? I never could keep up. dated some guys, and it was always nice at first, and then i'd get so bored and depressed. no relationship ever lasted more than a few weeks or months.

of course i know every aspie is different, and some aspies keep up better than nts. not saying it's always like that. just wondered if anyone else can relate.

I follow MD Geist as the example of living my life, thus, if a women would ever come on to me I would slap her than kill all of the human race.

I lose interest in people quickly.
If someone is actually relationship material, I will have confirmed that they are one of the rare few who can hold my interest over a long period of time.

I get bored easily in general, not just relationships. :D With relationships, people that bore me the most are the ones that can't stimulate me intellectually.

not for me I get overly attached to people in general. I kept loyal to a girl for over a year and were not even dating per say.
