As an aspie, I know this very well. I don't like to be judgmental, but when you've been rejected so many times by NTs like I have, you'll see what I mean. In general, I say that NTs are not for us when it comes to dating. Don't you agree?
Somehow I don't think my date being an aspie would help me much. I like specific character traits, and whilst a lot of aspies have them it's likely still be hit and miss. As I get on with a certain type of woman that's primarily what I'm attracted to, and I could care less if they are NT or aspie. I find it works out a lot better for me actively looking for those traits rather than how I used to be, which was very non judgmental of pretty much any trait in a person. But that approach wasn't good for me and I think the reason is the attraction is often mutual, as I've found that the people that liked me usually ended up having those traits anyway, eventhough I was unaware of it. I say be more picky yourself.

True, but they're picky for the wrong reasons. NTs judge the kind of people (such as aspies) that are shy and awkward and all that, but fall too hard for the wrong people who "have all the right moves". NTs are suspicious about their choices, but in the wrong way.
Hmm, there's no rule saying aspies are above that
