Apparently there are people on the asexuality spectrum who are looking for soul mates but don't want physical intimacy with them. A lot of ASD women would seem to be in this situation.

No and I'm not sure that I want to be in one. Aspies make great friends but crappy partners. I know because I'm an aspie and I'm a crappy partner.

Are you actually a crappy partner, or might this be a self-esteem issue? :chin:

I'm a terrible partner, according to my partner. But maybe I should take her views with a grain of salt.

(also I have pretty low self-esteem)
