This is a long thread. Maybe I replied before but here I go:
I'm now 47. Getting horizontal feels really good but is also empty if you don't really know the other person or love him/her. I had sex once at age 18 with a really nice gal who barely knew what to do, but who I had known for only a week. I was REALLY scared of getting her pregnant and lived in fear and guilt/shame for the next month until she had her period. I have been on only about 5 dates in my life. My last date was the summer of 2001. My last kiss was early 1991. I started on eharmony.com about 10 years ago. I met 4 nice women of which none were attractive enough for me. I have bounced around to match.com pof.com & okcupid.com. I have been on pof and okcupid for over a year and I can't even get a date. I get messages from women 100 pounds overweight or ones that are homely. I'm having a hard time adjusting to this as when I was in high school I had some of the prettiest gals talk to and show and interest in me. Two quite attractive twins in my class both asked me out multiple times. One of them had done some modelling. In church I knew two sisters who at one time were competing against each other for me. Their mom had done some modelling. They were both quite attractive.
And now I haven't had a date in almost 13 years. I guess when I was younger I found it easier to talk to people. I have had so many run ins with bad people in the last 15 years I can't trust people any more.
they asked you out? That's very interesting, because almost all girls are stubbornly old fashioned in the sense they wait for the guy to initiate

Thats because 90% of the populous don't find aspies attractive!

Yea but unfortunately the aspie females keep passing on the genes.


What? Is this a reference to some scientific genetic breakthrough I have not heard about? Please do share your source. I would be very interested.


It's been hypothesized that many cases of autism are caused by exposure to common pollutants before birth. If that's true, get ready to see autism rates go through the roof.

Going to the gym helps build confidence and self esteem

My doctor says that about 50% of the engineers in this country would be diagnosed with Aspergers. We are different but we have talents and often a strong focus on one thing. Don't look at your Aspergers as a total drag on your life and weight on your shoulders.
