| It is not technically 'normal' as most people don't do it, but I personally don't find anything wrong with this approach if you are not in an environment where you can meet girls your age. Online dating seems (some say IS) very shallow and your true self doesn't come out until you meet in person any... |

| Very sad that this is happening to you. I also had trouble in the dating area and still have trouble. It is HARD, I am actually considered pretty OK looking I guess, but even I had a lot of trouble. I don't know if it's autism that causes me to suck in this area or if all guys go through this. I rea... |

| About two years ago I was told about the mass shooter (Elliot Rodger) and The umpquoa community college shooting (Chris Harper-Mercer) and it was something evil, but also sad as they were said to have aspergers. Apparantly their motivation was rejection from women??? I was 24 and never had a gf (eve... |

| After more than three years it answers a lot of questions for me. I took an ADOS-2 with equivocal results (open to various interpretations), and was first told that I have anxiety and ADHD. After months with a clinical psychologist, it was determined that I actually DID have Autism (High-functioning... |

| I am 23 years old and never kissed a girl. I actually have an asexual-like mentality though, so it kind of makes sense for me. There were plenty of opportunities for me to have kissed a girl if that was all I wanted to do. Simply put, do not feel bad that you have not kissed a girl, you just haven't... |

| Idk if I can help in the general sense. I have never had issues with committing to something, as I usually feel distanced from everyone anyways. I have not really had a serious girlfriend so I lack experience there as well, but the idea of commitment doesn't really bother me. Do you 'feel' like soci... |

| If you really want to understand flirting (and especially the signs), read read and read! Find sources and take notes. Then practice on observing this mysterious "flirting" behavior and really try to pay attention. Why reading you may ask, my good sir (or ma'am, I didn't check your gender)... |

| My sense of humor is sardonic (which is sarcasm and irony I guess). It's weird because growing up I had trouble wrapping my head around it (as I know most autistics do). Until I realized it was basically obvious lying (Which is good because I can't do real lying). I am told that my tone doesn't refl... |

| After half a year of waiting, I finally got my results after the regional center evaluation(ADOS-2 Module and Records). They have concluded that I do NOT have any kind of autism (thus I do not qualify for services). They concluded that I just have ADHD and Anxiety, which I thought was Ok. However, m... |

| I personally think you should just tell him that so he can be more aware. Not every person with autism is the same, but autistics don't usually get offended fast or hold grudges at NT pace. I'm sure it will be fine. |

I was wondering if it is a good idea to have a cocky/overconfident attitude to mask who I really am. I am tired of being seen as cute physically, but then a weirdo once someone gets to k... |

| Its a shame to read that. The main reason I'm here is to interact with those who understand me, since no one I know can understand me in real life (with the exception of someone who might at least be allistic). |

It just seems like you have trouble with small talk. I have trouble as well.
As far as deep conversations go, most NTs don't seem interested in deep conversations. They prefer various conversational threads that don't require them to think a lot (from what I notice). |

| You have to remember that NTs are also not being who they should be (no offense). Most of them are always obsessed with what is "in" or what clothes are in style, or what is considered popular. I too feel like I am always wearing a mask around them. I have been known to walk up to a cute g... |
