How can I tell when someone's interested in me?
As an aspie it might not be a good idea for me to throw dirty comments. I might throw one that's waaaaay too dirty.
Lol i'm certainly not lying... i promise i'm not!! ! hehehe this is exciting, by the way... i'm not so sure about the dirty comments- lol if you find your communications with people still a bit socially awkward. work your way up to that point.... some women might actually be slightly offended (or get the wrong idea) about what you're saying if you're not saying it JUST so....or if she's a little shy it could scare her away and point out intentions which might not be there... just give it some strong consideration before acting if you don't think you could flawlessly pull it off steer clear until you build up that level of rapport with her first...
like lets say youve been saying hi a few times and talking a little bit (like a few sentences or something).... and for instance she cut her hair and you said to her "you look beautiful" and she says "awww thank you..." and you said something to the effect of "well you always look beautiful to me" that would be a good start... and its plenty suggestive without running the risk of saying something crazy then pushing the panic button and saying something EVEN crazier...lol trust me, i know... being NT doesn't count for s**t when you're shy...
Damn straight about NT being irrelevant when shy. Basically, no matter who you are, you go into USELESS mode if you don't watch it Oh man, the number of times I've made an egg out of myself in front of a really hot guy...
With the dirty stuff...yeah, it's best to use your judgement on that one. In my case I'd been instigating that side of things first, and he'd sorta picked up on that (pretty impressive since usually he has major Aspie moments and MISSES that sort of thing XD)...played a cautious card well and boum. Do that to my sister, and she'd slap you...she's a prude. Do it to me and I'd enjoy it. Different strokes for different folks as they say...know the girl well before you spring any surprises on her like that.
It's sort of something you'd do to push a friendship to the next level, not to a random. In this instance we'd known each other irl for about a month, and online for about a month or so again before that.

I find it hard to tell how well I know someone. I don't know anyone else very well. I think part of my problem is I can't get the first step into building up that kind of rapport. I'm not sure I could even tell when it's there. Maybe I'll just start wearing a cup and let the dirt flow, see where it gets me. If she's a prude, then f*** that c*nt (bad pun, I know), I'll move on to one who isn't such a prude. On second thought, maybe I want to think twice before trying that, it might give me a reputation around the campus...
Subtlety isn't exactly my specialty.
I've been told a guy's voice gets higher in pitch when he is talking to a woman he likes. Especially if its over the phone, but its also noticable in face to face conversation. If you've ever heard a normally deep voiced man suddenly talking in near squeaks you know what I mean.
I'm sorry. You just gave me such a good laugh cause thats exactly what I think
