The worst thing someone can do with many high-functioning aspie males is to "play hard to get" - most of us will probably take it literally and simply go off and look elsewhere. Be very clear; like -- "I really like you, and I'd like to be your girlfriend". If that doesn't work, simply pouncing (at ...

Does he have access to our actual personal e-mail addresses, or just have a means to blindly send a mass e-mail to all Wrong Planet members? I don't want him selling my personal e-mail address to some spammer for $1. 8O
