Disregard. This is just a test. My posts don't seem to be working.

When she claims to love you but puts you down, lies to you, orders you not to talk to other women yet constantly goes on about guys she finds attractive, when she insults your exes who she's never even met for absolutely no reason and when she makes you feel like everything is your fault

Most women are less tolerant than men when it comes to weirdness it sucks but thats reality! Women prefer a normal and stable man who is perfect who cannot make mistakes and has many talents and such minus the wierdness sadly we aspies have the weirdness factor along with the talents and such. We do not fit that criteria because we are weird!

I think I'm too odd for most men. I like history, alternative music, literature, philosophy, ancient mythology, art, poetry, classical music, basically a lot of subjects and feel like I'm basically a mixture of a goth and a hippy....? I'd like to have an open-minded and intelligent SO.

I'd be bored with most people easily as I'm not interested in soccer or soap operas. I want to have that feeling of 'connection' with someone. Some people put up with me because they apparently thought I was hot enough but I didn't put up with them. I want someone out of the mainstream, with his own distinct personality, passions, thoughts and interests. I think I'm in fact too weird for most men, even though some would like to date me.

A lot of people are posting about women who are clingy or manipulative or liars. Those qualities do not make one WEIRD. They just make one annoying and/or a jerk. Not the same thing at all.
I am a weirdo and my husband thinks I'm great. So no, there is no such thing as a woman who is too weird to find a man.
If you require proof, go to Walmart and check out all the freaky ladies shopping with their significant others.
There's a lid for every pot, as the saying goes.

Being clingry, manipulative or a liar is weird though. It's not quirky but it is weird. I personally will only be attracted to a girl if she's quirky, but weird in the whole sort of manipulative, "I'm-going-to-rob-you-of-your-self-esteem" way -- nah man.

I think we're using different definitions of the word "weird". I am meaning highly unusual, strange, and bizarre. Being clingy, manipulative, or a liar is not at all uncommon behavior for either gender.

Masters of Social Work. You probably have it under another title in the UK.

That's what I want to obtain, so I could become a Transitions Counselor after I retire from my present job.

I disagree. Men (well NT anyway) are as at least as intolerant as women when it comes to weirdness.

Trust me, I've seen it.

I'm weird. I have long hair and am not a rock star by any means. I'm turned off by things that aren't considered weird. I think long finger nails and make up are unattractive. I wouldn't reject someone just because of it, but I guess I think plain is beautiful. My one friend actually claims I'm attracted to unattractive women. So I guess too weird or whatever is totally subjective. But I think there are norms. Most guys dress and groom themselves conventionally and want a companion who also conforms to the same conventions. Weird to one person is not weird to another. Like others have said, though, when it comes to someone who is going to manipulate, or hurt me, then I'd definitely stay away.

To me, quirky-weird is kind of attractive. Girls that are regarded as super hot and super confident by most men and who are only into typical "girly-girl" things aren't all that attractive to me. I prefer girls who have less mainstream tastes. A certain degree of geekiness is attractive to me. Intelligence is also highly attractive to me, and unfortunately, intelligent girls are often branded as weird simply for being intelligent. I'm not what I would regard as "too weird" in a girl. Usually a particularly strange quirk would be cancelled out by good points about the girl.

Like noodler said before me, weird to one person is not weird to another. Quirky people are attracted to other quirky people
