I don't think I would be better of I dated men.

Girls are hard to connect with, and most of them would consider themselves to cool to be with me.

Most men on the other hand are straight, and would probebly still think that way if the weren't.
Some people are really nice and don't think I sould be ignored for beeing different. Thoose people are gold, no matter wich sex they have.

Right now I love a really nice and intellegent girl, and I seem to be perfectly (sorry for that expression) straight. But you never know how the future will be.

Shame on you Social_Fantom. People are what they are and you should learn to accept that. :x

(;))
Huh? I think it was positive saying that I should be allowed to be with guys or girls.


My sister's gay, so I would be accepted if I was bi or gay as well by my mom and his boyfriend. I think I'm straight though, my gut tells me that. Time will tell though...


You sound a LITTLE like me, though I NEVER wanted to be gay. So HOW are we similar? Before reading the following, resolve to read it ALL!

Well, Females can be sneaky! In much of the US they have preferred legal standing. There is the idea of gold diggers.(A name for women that marry for money or power) Their attitude can be REAL bad. Please note that I am NOT saying ALL females, and I know men aren't perfect.

There is a portion of my mind that almost wishes I was truly asexual. But I have ALWAYS loved females! I have ALWAYS been especially nice to most females(It doesn't matter if they are 2 or 50). I like even looking at them! They have what are apparently instincts, etc... that I LOVE! Even some of their trickery and flirting I find endearing. I'm not even thinking about sex, and I am getting excited! Talk about odd. I wasn't even really thinking about females, just about what I was writing about them! And there is a portion of my mind that DEMANDS it all stay that way.

Apparently BOTH sexes like women to a degree. So your statements don't make it clear you are homosexual AT ALL! If I was female, and legal standings and all were reversed, I would probably be a lesbian. Of course, I don't know really how females feel about men, etc..., so maybe I would have the same problem as you.

It is funny how that all works. :cry: :cry: :cry:

BTW I just read what LordArquebus said. What he said about his ideals and reservation, goes for me also. There are a lot of things I could have done to have sex. I could maybe even have married a pretty woman, but I have my standards, and beauty really is more than skin deep.

Maybe the dichotomy is due to AS, who knows. I have given into a few things, but NEVER sex. I treat little girls as if I am their caring father, and I treat many women like an upper class gentleman was expected to treat them earlier. I am not looking for anything in return.

I just find that females are ten times easier to read then guys for me, and so having a relationship with them would make it so much easier to have a partner!


You are ASPIE and find Women easier to read? WOW! I would have thought you find men harder. Most women have trouble reading men, but that is because they are just SO different. Think what you want, but men and women really do have some involved mental differences. It seems like AS kind of prevents some of that differentiation.

Maybe it's because I'm overly senstive (It's actually sometimes possible with an Aspie, especially one who was told that they were egotistical all the time and overchanged it)
I get the emotions of a woman easier then men. I guess it's easier to understand a person when you feel many of the same feelings. I couldn't deal with fickle woman though - luckily I can pick out good woman easier then men because I've had lots of experience with that when searching for friends.

just because you don't have luck with one gender doesn't mean you'll have better luck with the other. gay couples go through the same troubles and insecurities straight couples do.
It's not the relationship that I want to change. I just think that because I get woman more, it might be easier to have a true connection. I don't understand men at all though...
