Nasty Girls in your home city

Post Reply New Topic

So after trying to date the last 2 years in real life, I've come to the conclusion that in my city there are a lot of nasty girls here, and by that I don't mean in terms of physical looks or hygiene or that stuff, I mean in terms of mentally and how they treat other people. I'm almost to the point sometimes to where I wonder if I ever wanted to have a girl friend if I'd have to move to another city for the sake of finding "nicer" girls, but unfortunately I'm not doing that as I don't believe love is something you should have to go out of your way to spend extra money on, and I'm not doing so in that to move somewhere else.

Examples of what I'm talking about:

Meet someone on a dating site that lives in your town or through the dating section on craigs list. Everything is fine till they ask to see your pic, then when you send it they quit talking to you. By no means am I over weight or anything, I'm like a tooth pick almost.

Decide its easier to move on once you tell them your autistic or somewhere in the spectrum. I have a couple girls I met that seemed nice at first then once I brought the word up the conversations stopped, I was probably seen as a project to them.

I've had girls that have told me multiple times that we're gonna hang out on a certain day/time. I text the night before to figure out the day or time as they're the ones that told me to text and ask the next day in the first place, hear nothing back. The next day when I do finally get a hold of them they tell me they were "too busy" often times I never found out what they were "busy" doing but I can probably guess sadly and then act as if they were offended that I tried to ask when they were the one that never responded to a text/phone call THEY told me to make in the first place to plan our hang out day or whatever <_<

I don't dare try to date at work. I work at Costco and there are people close to my age, most are out of my league though. Affairs are going on left and right, people getting other people pregnant, etc.....

I don't drink so I seldom have a reason to go to a bar unless its a work outing every once in a while.....in which I usually end up getting shafted and designated driver so sadly I don't even like to attend those much anymore....

My social skills are probably better off that what they were when I was in high school but I'm sure I still come off as "odd" to an NT person. I'll be 24 at the end of November and the world is defiantly not kind to a high functioning autistic person like me....

You'll be okay. Don't lose hope! Trust me, there ARE nice people out there. Just not many.

i wouldn't mention your autism to someone until after you've been dating for a few months. it may help.

you only need to find one compatible person. even if 90% of the girls you meet are nasty, you still have good chance of meeting a decent one.

I guess being nasty is how people who aren't interested in people get rid of said people.

which, don't get me wrong, there's no excuse and it still makes them nasty, but some people think that being mean is the only effective way to drive off unwanted suitors.

NT's are comparably nastier than aspies, in nearly all matters.....

However, getting dumped after a photo is no biggy, you should have had a photo up to begin with.

I think the key word here is "city". I'm a city boy and know what you mean. There are good people left in the cities, though, OP. The problem I find is in order to meet them you have to "keep up". It's a social conditioning that is predominantly found in cities. Just find ways to approach situations differently, and be persistent and eventually you'll find love, romance, a close encounter, whatever it is you are looking for..

Admittedly when I saw the title of this thread I thought it was gonna be one of spambots advertising for an adult "dating" site was this intentional?

In fairness, you are doing the same as they are. You are pre judging them based on a first encounter before you even know if they are shallow 24/7 or just on the off chaxce. You have to be fair, we all have shallow traits at one time or another and this happens on nights out. Alcohol impairs judgement on both sides.

I would be the bigger person, accept they might be judging you and prove to them what a decent person you can be before even bringing up Asperger's. Leave it til you know them on some more personal basis and can determine whether or not they are worth your time.

Why would I continue to bother someone that doesn't want to talk to me? You have to see it from that perspective as well. I too have been brushed aside or bullied at school, college and at work because of how I was and me not understanding what was different about me, or what to do in that kind of situation.

I know it's hurtful, I know it's unfair but it's far too easy to pass all blame to other peoples' social conditioning and excuse yourself any possible time in order to keep yourself steadied. You have to remember in a way you are complaining about their intolerance yet assuming they are all intolerant and in turn being intolerant towards them. It's not the answer, even if it makes you feel better. The more you do this the more you will not get the opportunity to get experience or learn.

Sometimes you can't learn something without first trying or making a few mistakes. I had to make a LOT of embarrassing mistakes in my life to get more socially adept. I wouldn't trade those mistakes for someone else's. And yes there are nasty girls out there, but if you're such a nice guy then you don't have anything to worry about because if you were truly nice, and had the courage to face such adversity you will eventually pull through. And once you've pulled through everything gets a lot easier.
