Dating and Electric Fish

Post Reply New Topic

So, I went on two dates (with two different women) this week and they both flopped like a spastic meth'd out fish caught in an electric fence. That's a lot of flop.
(The dates flopped, not the women they seemed nice enough.)

I was not sexually attracted to either of them, though I tried not to show it.
(they were blind dates, no no, the dates were blind not the women)

A -normally very insightful- friend of mine said women can tell that easily. Maybe he's right.
On the other there have been numerous women that I was not attracted to in the least, but that didn't stop them! heh. ugh. =(

Maybe we just didn't hit it off? Nah that's never stopped 'em before.
I'm easily old enough to know that two strikes doesn't end the ball game, but still...weird

Weird because nearly every woman I've ever known or spent more than about an hour or two (total) talking to has come on to me. Now before you say, "Hey, you're imagining it! Just because a woman is on the same side of the street as you doesn't mean she wants your bod, you self-centered dork!"
Let me say I'm clueishly challenged, sometimes even when they've climbed nekkid into bed with me I don't really get the clue and I take her excuses at face value, and gentlemanly not even lust after her quietly to myself while she's there. (Which isn't gentleman, it's just dork stupid)
By come on, I mean they say it or write it in a way even an Aspie can get. If they're climbing on me, kissing me, saying they love me or want to f**k me, groping me, or begging me to go home with them and f**k their p**sy all night, I am eventually able to recognize that behavior as a hint. Eventually.
Nearly every woman and about half the men I've know have propositioned me. (men are much more polite than the women, in my experience)

This has always kinda concerned me and weirded me out, because I really hate to hurt someone's self esteem, or making them feel bad about themselves by saying No (rejection).

I'm no big deal, I'm old enough to know that too. I'm over weight, under-rich (heh), not tall, or dark, I'm a social moron, I'm not a "bad-boy", I don't have good hair, sometimes under-hygienic, I don't have good hands, there's really nothing all that special about me.

I'm not sure why I posted this. Doubtlessly many with think this is bragging, some may notice it's a (nearly) humorous confession of complete dorkness.

I guess my thing is ... Is the human species really that horny that they all proposition literally everybody like that? And if not what weirdness is it about me that they do it to me? Relationships are primarily painful so I'm not that excited to have sex with everyone. And I don't. Maybe I just don't get out enough and these people are an underrepresention, it is only a few hundred people over several decades.
My second thing is ... weird that twice in a row it all went pfffft...
Maybe my animal magnetism got demagnetized. heh =)

I'm not sure why I wrote this... Is sexual attraction an aspie thing??



(** real life quotes so you'll know the level of my hint factor)

Well, the thread title is enthralling anyway. I've heard of alcohol being described as a social lubricant, and by extension a fertility enhancement, the former of which would account for my own stellar 2 for 900 statistics

I've never seen what you describe, let alone experienced it. So I can confidently say they don't proposition "literally everybody" like that.

Maybe you're having issues because you're actually dating an electronic fish?

Women obviously like you very much. Keep doing what you're doing .

I think if you don't mind the company and they're not gonna be too hurt by a short term fling, just enjoy it.
As you say, you acknowledge you are not special and you acknowledge they aren't either. Providing you don't take them on a ride, there's no harm in enjoying yourself.

If you roll a dice 100 times, chances are you're going to go on a long streak rolling the same number.

The more dates you have, the more chances you have of going on such a streak. You're probably just on a streak. Try not to let it affect your confidence too much.

oooo! booze! I forgot about that! Next time!

No wonder they wont pay their half...

pretty clueless about what that may be...

Can't risk it, even the small chance of it turning into a *gasp! heaven forfend!* a relationship is too terrifying to contemplate! (this is kinda true)
----

So I can't have a long streak of floppy dates, if I don't have a long streak of dates. hmm, yes! good plan! no more dates!

Dates have always seemed too formal of a concept to me, I get all stilted on them, (only been on about 8-10 official dates ever) I do better if (too much so sometimes) if I just sit around yakking where ever I ran into them.

"Failure" with women doesn't/wouldn't really surprise me, I rather expect it.
It's when (and how often) people propose, it is always a surprise, especially when men do.

The only theory I can make out is that the whole world is always horny and would screw a goat if it was dressed right.
Baaaaaa

You might not even be far off the mark, at least where some people are concerned.

Did you know that there's a tiny Scottish island which has (1) No police, and (2) as a consequence, an open resident sheep shagger ?
It's this really weird old eccentric hermit guy, and he doesn't even care if anybody sees him... because there's no police, so his attitude is what are people going to do about it.
People will be going about their daily business, go past a field, and Oh my god..... suddenly they need eye bleach.

Keep talkin', I'm taking notes.




I think this is fundamentaly correct. It's just that they still have a choice wich goat to take home. You're obviously non-threatening enough that they feel comfortable with you. Baaaa!

Aw shucks, I'm sure that you're more attractive than a goat (or a sheep) ! !! !!

Lololololololol.

Well, this is all very well... but it doesn't really address the question which i'm sure must be on everybody's minds :

Do android goats dream of electric fish ?

That oddly made me hungry for battered (as in abused) fish.

I dunno, he's probably the only resident that isn't actively involved in incest, so maybe he actually has the moral high ground.
