So I do have Aspergers and have trouble getting along with people. About 16 months ago a guy started showing interest in me. After a few months we started dating. I did like him but, it was not love. In reality it was mostly just convenient. We never fought and really got along but after a year of dating I realized I just didn't want to be around him anymore. It was like a light switch going from dim to off. I broke up with him a week later. Now I feel guilty. I just don't feel towards people. This isn't the first time I've gone out with a guy just cause I could. Well I ever find a relationship I can really commit to?

You don't miss him at all? Or do you feel guilty you hurt him with him having done much wrong? What made you not want to be around him? I had this "friend" she would always bug me about hanging out and talked about boring things and even almost stalked me to get me to hang out with her. I found it annoying and I stopped talking to her. I felt guilty because she perhaps was lonely, but at the same time I had bigger priorities. For example, if i told her I had to hang out with my mom, she told me to forget my mom and hang out with her. That was strange. But, time passed, I met a new friend and I adored her and we had mutual interests. Some people just aren't compatible.

So it could be perhaps that you cannot develop strong emotions for others, but it's hard to tell so far. Did you ever have any crushes? Do you feel love for other people(family, friends, etc)?

That's pretty normal, that's how dating works. So much of it is based on feelings, and feelings aren't always predictable or explainable.
