I hope, soon, you will schedule these "encounters" more frequently.
She's half Lebanese/Yemeni half Filipino and she lived most of her childhood in Philippines, I found out that Asians find me more attractive - so let's say... I am capitalizing on that recently.
And they are usually way more open to mutual casual encounters than the locals.
I had almost an encounter with another Filipino as well weeks ego, but her work schedule (private nurse) is such big burden and she almost has no day off.
I'm so vain I think they probably are referring more to me than to you. Perhaps not specifically, but there's no doubt the shoe fits.
So those who judge are generally the most worth getting to know?

Do I seek sometimes for potential dates or even for potential casual sex behind the screen? Yes, I do, but it's just for that.
They weren't necessarily assuming anything. I certainly don't socialize in real life more than I'm forced to, and it never has as much as the potential to lead to anything but strictly as little contact as whatever we're doing requires, and then we forget about each other. Going out and having fun belongs entirely to the realm of fantasy, and a very boring one at that.
So, yes, I consider the Internet an extra tool to use with the faint hope of getting to know someone I might eventually meet in real life, looking meanwhile for whatever my interests are. And, yes, this proves how I'm actually not worth getting to know---not for anything good anyway---so I don't at all expect to succeed in breaking out of my isolation, but there isn't much I can do about it.

And if we are gonna talk about negative correlations, so be it, I also see a very strong negative correlation between people who JUDGE others and assume stuff about them behind the screen and people who are totally not worth of getting to know, how about that? eh? It's only fair, tit for tat psychoanalysis.
So....stop assuming stupid things, the three of you.

Hit a nerve?
I was just relating my personal experience. You certainly don't have any reservations with sharing your "personal experience," or your subjective "judgements" about women. What's good for the goose is good for the gander.
And no, I wasn't referring to you specifically. I was referencing the socially maladroit set who live their lives behind computer screens, and then bemoan the fact that other people aren't interested in getting to know them. But if the shoe fits, wear it.

This.
My personal experience is that there's a direct negative correlation between people who do all their "socializing" from behind a computer screen, and people who are worth getting to know.
explain? are you say nerds or introverts are not worth getting to know?

Nerds and introverts with absolutely nothing going on in their lives and who make no effort to be interesting to other people are not worth getting to know.

And no, women are not attracted to nerdy guys who stare at their breasts and mumble a few lines they saw on a PUA website ...

sorry we can't all be cowboys , mountain climbers, rescue operators, fire men, police, military or some toher interesting thing.
do the women who do nothing but read books all the time also requrie this? gosh so many boring women on okcupid. all they do is read books. but yet I'm willing ot give it a shot perhaps they're more interesting then they look. not reading a book by its coverage. I suck socially. I get phone anxiety . so yeah I prefer text based communication thru a screen atleast at first. I also enjoy videogames. we are the technology genration and its only going to get worse. look around you how many people are walking around or at the store on their phones? pretty much all of them here. checking facebook, reading the news or on imgur. smart phones have taken over most the population. I see lots of people playing candy crush or something similar. people hardly talk to each other. teenagers sit next to each other and text back and forth. they'll right there why dont' they just talk.
whatever. you and such judgmental people are best not to know too.I dont' want to know somoene that thinks because somene spends a lot of time in front of one screen or another they'll a suck person. for that matter why are you on here? sitting in your homes looking at this screen go get out and go to a in person support group.
willing to bet most aspies are invovet on pc types. we suck at being social, the internet solved that for a lot of us and lets us be social for first times in our lifes and you nag on us for it.

also is it be yourself, be happy do things you enjoy
or is it
make yourself interesting for others.
see the 2nd one is doing things for others not doing things that make you happy. not everyone will have an exciting hobby. I say exciting because thats what you really mean. see reading on the interent or videogames is interesting to a lot of people, but its not exciting.

Xfiles,
Hmm there was no judgment from my part in this thread, I was just stating real life experiences.
First, you come to an autism forum, full of people who are introvert and struggle to have a social life to begin with, and you insult them all... by calling them *not worth* or very likely to be not worth (referring to your "correlation").
Shame on you, you are a mod yet you made a personal attack on a big scale on every indoor-staying and socially inept person here.
I bet you feel a sadisic joy out of putting people down behind the screen; there's a correlation between judcgmentality-behind-the-screen and cowardice btw.
Second, It was you XFiles, who got hit by a nerve; as I said, people like you are not worthy at all to get to know and nauseautic.

One has to get out of comfort zone sometimes to know new people, that's true, and I don't think anyone would dispute that.
My issue is with XFiles describing them as not worthy.

You really should be de-moded. Even fact, isn't modding a forum is too-behind-the-screen activity? It isn't a real "Job" the same way how talking to people online isn't real socializing.
