I'm getting to the point I don't even try limited socializing anymore, like I've said before I can show up and bring some drinks and be pleasant and witty but some guy who just comes to mooch and is just an absolute ass becomes a more valued member than me, so I just slink away quietly.

How many times can I say hey man my treat, have you ever tasted wines or microbrews etc? Here try some, hah good time.

They offer for me to come over sometime, want me to try their favorite or whatever.........................

...........................

....................

Never happens and if I bring it up hey crazy excuses neat.

Then out of the blue they'll invite me to come treat them again.

Yea no thanks.


How about just bald faced mooching or inappropriate requests? Chatting for five minutes and you ask me to pay your rent with a laughable sob story? Are you kidding me?


I'm starting to believe that no one is interested in social interaction for the sake of it, they are all looking for something or someone to use as a resource and I'm the only goddamn one out there just looking to have some fun with is IRONIC!

He, that is ironic. Being aspie makes you vulnerable. Make sure you move in the right circles.

I just keep meeting men who want sex.

No luck finding friends or a proper boyfriend.

Even one of my neighbours keeps coming around to try for sex. Either that or they keep buying me drinks to get me drunk before trying for sex.

What is with that?

I am looking for someone nice to come a museum or the theater and snuggle and smooch and build up to sex as we get to know each other better.

I second this!

I decided not to bother for the time being because I am going around in circles and getting nowhere.

I am due to see a therapist tomorrow but whether it will be helpful I don't know.

I don't appreciate feeling like I am being treated like the local free prostitution service.

I've decided to avoid men for the time being.

Yeah, I think that's what most social interaction is all about. People do it because they think they will get something out of it...money, things, a business connection, social status, whatever. Very few people make friends or do things with other people because they genuinely enjoy the other person's company.

Yes, I find myself being too trusting of people and can become misinterpreted from time to time.
