I find that site has the most intelligent people out of any site I've tried. I've tried a few.

I always say as hard headed as some are here its still loads better than most forums

you havent really met the lowest of the low on there until youve encountered [named redacted because he's probably prone to googling himself a lot].
But yeah, i think you gotta have some pretty tough skin to deal with those forums though.

Oh no! Please don't mention that name, he might join here! :lol:

I don't think the forums are all that tough. it just seems like a barn full of funny animals to me.

Is it strange to say that I tried that website out and found stranger people then what you would find abnormal here?

Some girl from California is stalking my profile now. :cry:

Strange really as she's not exactly my type, plus shouldn't she be looking for Californians and not Mancunians?

May try Aspie Affection, as I know they'll have a better idea on what they want.

Agreed with GiantHockeyFan and GoldCoinLover. And the worst part is, it doesn't seem to get better later on either.

I thought that but I also get visitors from 'rich' countries like Germany and USA. I think it's got to do with the fact they are just looking at the tall guys in my situation. Not for a relationship, just to see if I really exist. Last time I checked it did.

Im on Ok cupid but I seem to be having more luck on aspergers dating site and autistic dating site

http://www.autisticdating.net/

http://www.aspergersdatingsite.com

I still find all three of these websites have mostly members who are never online and most of them live in the UK or California and since I live in Ontario it's very distant but I still think online chat works.

If you were a woman in the Philippines (or Russia), you too would be hitting up online dating sites for American/Canadian guys. This is for a number of reasons, in what I think in most cases is descending order of importance:

1. Much higher likelihood of finding a decent guy who is stable and treats you well. The competition for these types of guys in second/third world countries is fierce.
2. Get yourself out of poverty.
3. Raise your future kids in a cleaner, more advanced country.

All of these reasons are serious, and justify drastic action like moving around the world to be with a guy you haven't met.

There are also a few who might run the whole thing as a moneymaking scam.

Okay, how the hell do you navigate the Aspie Affections search site?

It's horrible in terms of half loading and stuff...

Eharmony= lots of nice but very plain or unattractive and/or obese women. Met 4 women 4-5 years ago. Not attracted to any of them. I was on a total of about 18 months. I won't go back again.
Match= not quite as bad as eharmony but didn't get a single date. Very very few messages. I was on about 15 months.
POF= since about March. I think 99.99% of all the good looking women got married before they were 30 and the rest have either never married or have married/divorced and gained 100 or more pounds. I think a lot of women's looks go away between ages 40 and 45. I can't kiss or marry a woman I'm not attracted to. I have gotten very few messages from women that don't interest me and that is it.
Okcupid= about 2 months now. More messages from more women I'm not attracted to and/or they are obese. Obesity in women is a HUGE turn off to me (no pun intended).
I'm not really sure what I see that is worse: dealing with the IRS, getting my teeth drilled, or trying to end this state of being single and lonely.

You need to move to a different city. Chicago is not that far from you. In MN, you are going to get nothing but obese women, too many guys competing for the few who are not obese. Even if you land one, you will be lucky if she isn't trouble. Makes me wonder why the obese ones don't just stop being obese. I know there was a discussion about that subject in another thread, but I don't accept that it's "too hard" unless the person has a gland issue. Things are not "too hard" when someone gives a s**t. I have had very little luck with online dating outside NY, Toronto and Chicago. I'm sure there are cities in California with a decent selection as well. Edit: Also Washington, DC.

At your age, perhaps the most prudent thing to do would actually be to join one of those Anastasia Russian bride "trips". No, I'm serious. They need a guy without the Russian baggage and you need a woman without the American baggage. Match made in heaven.

I don't see the point of it then...as it's not very good at navigation.
