Breakthrough: OKCupid update

Post Reply New Topic

I never had any luck at all with Okcupid.. website is just set up to make you pay a fee before you can even cross words with someone.

plenty of fish . com is a lot better in terms of technology and people using it. A matter of hours after I put my profile on it I got 2 messages from girls in my local area. I nearly fell off my chair.. that had never happened before. One of them shares a lot of interests with me so im trying to take it slow and not risk screwing it up

Hope you do get much better results than I did on OKcupid

doh >< wrong site name my bad.


wow that was awkward

Well. I'm meeting up with someone from Okcupid on tuesday evening, she happens to be an aspie too.

I've met up with people off the internet before. But this shall officially be the first person i've ever met off a dating site.

I'm somewhat in two minds of absolutely ecstatic joy of wow this is person is so cool and on the otherhand abject terror and anxiety of WTF am i just about to get myself into? Surely someone this good looking is not into me theres got to be a catch here?

So that wonderful mix of jubilation, excitement, anxiety and self doubt has made me somewhat hyper active as of late, which isn't a bad thing it makes a change to be so emotive for once. The lack of sleep the adrenalin induced anxiety rushes and trying to keep my cool and not wonder off into day dream land every 5 minutes have been my constant struggle in the last week or so.

But anyway. I will let you know how things go, good or bad on tuesday. It would be nice if something were to come out of this but I don't want to set myself up for a big disappointment. If things go quite badly, I think im gonna be quite low for awhile. But this is all speculation i'm not there yet so. Just thought I would have an open sharing of whats been going on through my head as I'm quite bad for internalising my thoughts and not expressing things that I should get off my chest.

So thankyou for your group therapy sessions. I now expect fappin, trolling and outright piss taking to commence as usual

Laz, may the force be with you!

I've got a question, but first some background information about this girl we're talking about:

I first got a message that this girl had saved me to her favorites list in October last year. Except at that time, I wasn't sure that she was that interested in me because she didn't respond to my second message. Anyway, I decided to chance sending her a message again on 1 January this year, to which she responded a week later and then again to my reply only a month later, usually apologizing and saying that she was busy. Anyway, the point is that we didn't exchange many messages but nonetheless we ended up exchanging emails.

Now that's the background, but now for a the question:

In my first email to her, should I mention the fact that : a.) I live at home with my parents, b.) that I can't drive and/or c.) that I have Asperger Syndrome? I would at least like to be honest, judging by the fact that we'd at least known each other for 5 months on OKCupid.

No reply, wonderful. I just want to let you guys know that I've sent her an email. I even told her about my AS because I thought she might be receptive. I now just have to wait for a reply from her.

okcupid rules man!

I'm dating yet another person I met there this weekend.
