Okay, I blame my condition that hinders my ability to socialise with others.

Well, thats what the Aspie info says.

Thats still unhealthy but at least its better than blaming the other person.

So what are you going to do about it? There is help out there for people who struggle with aspergers. Have you been to any meetups, re-searched medications or spoken to a doctor?

You aren't asking "Whats wrong with me" you are saying "whats wrong with her?" you should be looking at the former question instead of blaming others.


"What's wrong with her?" might be a valid question, though. Sometimes people are compatible, but one of them is so messed up inside they unconsciously sabotage the relationship. Or their standards are indeed to high (they'll only date a movie star but they have no chance of meeting one in person). There could be many other explanations too. I'm not saying he doesn't have anything to work on himself, but it isn't always the man's fault.


He doesn't even know her? It doesn't matter whether people are compatible, it comes down to whether they a) want a relationship and b) want to try one with someone they hardly or don't know. I've turned down guys I might be compatible with because I don't want a relationship, and have a busy life, and I can't be bothered getting to know a stranger for the possible chance that we may be compatible.

I never said compatibility was the only critereon. I said there might be other reasons for turning him down (such as being too busy or not wanting a relationship), and that it wasn't necessarily something about Nick she didn't like.

if in the case that its her with the problem here (which I doubt) then he should forget about it and move on and ask someone else.

He's going to have to do that anyway.
