bunch of spring chickens!
before you count all your chickens before they hatch, please realize that there is very good potential of finding someone better down the line.
dont get me wrong, but at 18 you really have not experience much yet and there is soo much more to see and do out there before you think youve found it all.
the former aspie u dated probably had very little to no training in proper social cues and how to react to the situation.
do not discount 1 person because of the way they are at a certain age, perfect example of that is approx every 7 years your taste buds change and u will like something new that you previously did not. given enough time people change.
