a typical aspie faux pas

Well yeah, but I mean, how hard is it to see that this is extremely counterproductive to...certain things (especially for someone who likes "girls", as per the profile)? Writing a post takes time, time that allows you to actually think what you're saying as you type the words with each character, so it's not like it's just blurted out without innate empathy, but "we" can do the whole empathy thingy if a little thought is placed to it (it's just a learnt trait rather than a natural one).
Live and learn, I guess.
I suppose one good thing that comes with an ASD is insight into who people really are if you talk to them, as they don't hide things like most people do (it's not that good if your personality is of the insensitive and typical make, however, as you won't get far in many ways).
