If somone tells you you offend them, it would be smart
to find out more about why to learn and avoid doing it
again. Instead of rolling your eyes and act all smart.
But its your call. Stay ignorant and continue offending
people if you want to. Let me know how that works out
for you 10 years from now. Or never mind, i know how
that ends.

If you're offended by a near-the-knuckle joke featuring the word 'ret*d,' then I'm not especially bothered. I've offended people before, and probably will again, I know why, and I've known which ones I've cared about offending. If the mods are offended by my post, then I'll gladly withdraw it and not do my 'ret*d Dating Service' bit again. But at least 2-3 people have found it funny on previous occasions, which is a 75% success rate, and I'm happy with that. I don't go about offending everyone around me all day.


...often :wink:

Well you are funny. Let me put it this way. I might be wrong
but you might have something to gain by not making "ret*d"
jokes. Just throwing it out there, not a command or anything.
There is a chance i could be way way off, so i`m not going to
tell you what to do. Theres just something about those jokes
that tick me off a little. Calling you ignorant is a little harsh on
my side, you just ticked me off a little there for a while. I`m
off, good night, have a good one.

What do you mean thrown around? Is it entirely disrespectful to simply ask if there are any girls my age that want to meet someone new? It's difficult enough to find someone offline, but it can be fun to find an online pen pal. I didn't do anything wrong, nor was I even asking for a date. I was asking to meet anyone interested in becoming online friends.


this person is just being obtuse.

Well , I don't want to come off as a bigot or in pertaing to males a masculinist but ...I see threads posted by girls seeking for guys.
Normally I don't take these threads seriously (in fact,I find them stupid!) I do wonder the way in which girls respond to a such male's thread as opposed to a girl's thread . (see http://www.wrongplanet.net/postt73218.html)
FYI, I know that not all girls are like this but I do find a greater number as opposed to the latter.


LPP :1 - MissConstrue : 0 :P , your turn.


Hey you misquoted me on another thread. These kind of threads don't count in my game. It's the ones that get away with titles of Why are Women Prudes? or threads like women having it lucky when it comes to dating by guys. No matter what the dilemna I'm having, it doesn't count. The problem with this forum is most of the aspie guys in here think they got it all figured out and that most of us females fit into one box. Maybe that's being overly stated in my part but I see so much of it in threads of WP. I can't tell you how many times I didn't fit this Lucky stereotype.

MissConstrue raises an important point that a lot of us guys, myself sometimes included, should keep in mind.

Just because somebody's female, that doesn't mean they don't have any problems.

I've known a few Indians who didn't believe that white people had any problems. That's the way it looked to them.

Same sort of thinking.

Arghhh stop being so desperate man! Get outside of the internet! its way MUCH BETTER offline for hundred of times! Online isn't special.

Look i used to be like that year ago or more and i regret it and wasted my time. I never had a gf because of that. Anywho get the f**k outside of the internet. Plus do not being desperate like you told us its harder offline. Sighs shut up and calm down. You stressed about "OMG I'm single........i need a gf to have fun with for a night hahaha".

My suggestion is:
Calm Down
Shut up
Stop being desperate
Stop thinking of girls for desperation
Masturbate for it to use your imaginations, because this boosts your change in attitude and dreams to come true.
Get offline!

Welcome to the ret*d Dating Service, how may I direct your call? Please hold.

*Here at the ret*d Dating Service, we work for YOU! (While we masturbate over the videos you send us!)*


this is funny but it is cruel as well. I do however agree that this way of looking for friends(or more), is foolish because this day in age people could easily deceive you. For all you know, for example, I could actually be some middle-aged predator posing as a young adult with AS(though I'm not). It's just entirely unsafe and insensible to go looking for touble. :)

That said I shouldn't talke cuz I've had a yahoo personals account for nearly seven years now and I also recently started an EHarmony account and I take the other users' profiles totally at face value picture or no and for all I kone it could be some perverted middle-aged guy posing as someone in thier early to late twenties and usibg a younger family member's picture so the can loor someone naive and trusting like me into a bad situation.

^ I believe that everyone is innocent until proven guilty and I'm not going to let a few bad people make me jaded and untrusting of everyone.

That is not at all what I'm saying. What I'm saying is... don't go into situations like online dating or even searching for a friend online with you blinders on. Know the existing risks and pay attention to them.

Yeah, but every is talking like those people are so much more prevalent that they really are. There is a right a wrong way of doing things though and if you do things in logical steps there's really not much to worry about. There is enough to worry about if that person is who they say they are.
