If I was still single, then maybe yes.

No, I don't think I would be compatible with a copy of myself.

I think I dated "myself" once. It was a fanatically experience. At the time, I had no idea she might be autistic. This was 1993, so there was no spectrum yet. All I knew was she seemed to come from the same planet as me :D. In the long run, like 6 months, she broke it off.

I dated an true NT once as an adult, and felt like I was dating an alien, and I'm not talking about someone from a foreign country :D. Oddly, that was blind date set up by an aspie friend. She probably saw my picture and had to have me. I'm confident marrying her would have been a big mistake.

I don't know if autistic's marrying is good idea. But don't marry a real NT, either. They will feel that Casandra crap, whether they admit it not. My father was a "Casandra" and an alcoholic.

I feel totally asexual about myself, so I wouldn't marry myself. I'm definitely attracted to not-myself.
We could be close friends, though.

I think asking will you marry yourself (or date yourself) is the litmus test for having fair and reasonable standards.

If the answer is yes then then good. If the answer is no then it might be a sign that some improvements need to be made.

I would get annoyed and frustrated with myself a lot, so no.

Absolutely.

If I could chance one thing, I'd make the other me have the submissive version of my kinks, since I'm more of a dominant. But I'd be willing to settle for a relationship where we just fantasize about both of us dominating someone else.

In every other way, I'm the perfect match for myself.

I would prefer to date someone who is similar to me.

I once got set up with a girl who was the opposite of me in terms of values, beliefs, and lifestyle and it was a complete DISASTER. We wound up hating each other after just a month of talking, and I never saw her again after we both blocked each other.


If your idea of "fun" is smoking, doing drugs, or getting wasted, we're probably not going to be compatible.

I mean that is kind of why I was thinking dating a version of myself would not work. I can't picture a dominant version and so the sex would be meh, we'd need a third person to fulfill our needs. But there is the complication I am more demisexual so my copy would be to, so bringing in a third person we don't have a relationship connection with would be complicated.

but also idk it can be healthy to have some differences to...like if I was dating a copy of me, it would just be a total echo chamber. I think it is good me and my boyfriend are not the same person as it allows for some disagreement and getting a bit different perspective than you'd get from yourself.

No.

I am just a piece of ass.

I might have a fling with myself. But I would never get serious, and introduce myself to mom, for example.

Well I would find a female version of myself hilarious. Heck! I would marry myself.


this! :jester:


from another angle its kind of a forced marriage, but its easier to change yourself than somebody else, so that helps.

Would You Marry You?

No. I don't want to get married so if I proposed to myself I would refuse. I'd probably be ok with dating myself as I could be a relationship based on common interests.

buster's horrace can always be punked out, but once punked out it can never be what it was again.
