once again, i'm just amazed

Post Reply New Topic

at my newfound ability to be charming and incredibly flirtacious via the internet.
it's like discovering a newfound super power. and being like, "WTF"
i bet if i had a car and a job right now i could potentially be more of a successful slut than my sister's cute friend.
and she's kindddda sluttyyy . but she's also my friend too. we poke fun at her about that sometimes.

haven't tested it out in real life yet. mostly because i'm stranded with no ride to get to anywhere or anyone (thus the need for a car)
but if that worked out i guess i'd be what that le_petite_prince WP fellow calls an "alpha"? in some sense of the word anyways haha.

not that i would though do that though. because i sorta like someone right now and that'd make me feel hella disloyal and uncomfortable even though we're not technically together.

but it is nonetheless an amusing thought to ponder

and right now i feel absolutely addicted to attention. so i'm going back to myspace to lavish smooth compliments on the unsuspecting in order to get reciprocation.

be right back

(and yes, i'm immature enough to post all this and be all excited)
(but at the same time i have vast maturity in other areas or so i'm told)
(funny how that works)

Internet is different than real-life.

You just might be running into the biggest fail in your life if you expect your skills on the net to work in real life.
But alas, it's your choice, i just dont think it will work

yeah, i'm aware. but also while it's different from real life that does not mean it doesn't make a good buffer. i've got like a dozen girls from the local area who only know me on myspace who're saying they wouldn't object to sleeping with me and more than half who seem to really like me for my personality also ("seem" is an understatement, it's a verified actuality). i simply used the internet to convey what my words could not so easily: my personality by way of my profile, my writings, etc and just chatting. that, and ones who apparently think i'm really good looking all of a sudden (though why is beyond me). i think i'd have a decent chance if i tried. not that i'm going to really anytime soon prolly for stated reasons. but the thought had me excited so i made a thread to vent a little.

seems to me the only step left to take should i choose to take it is to meet them in real life, use my now large confidence from my internet successes and apply it to my behavior in real life. and play it cool.
it also helps that i explain my AS condition to most who would know. no surprises that way etc.
failure is a risk, but there is always a chance to try again. just saying. i used to have a paralyzing fear of rejection but the thought bothers me hardly at all now. i feel like my AS has been improving exponentially this last month or so. it's seemed to be getting better. i still retain characteristic problems of the syndrome of course, but they seem more manageable.

It's all because the internet is a text-only medium. All that subtext and body language gets thrown out the window... In other words, it levels the playing field for aspies...

it doesn't really crossover. it creates some repertoire between you and whoever you're talking to in the case that you do meet them in person, though. i would recommend just letting go of whatever is stopping you from talking to girls irl and just chat up all the friendly looking girls in your classes. work on projecting your personality in person.

There was a girl I knew on another forum who had an "e-crush" on me and I knew that because she literally said "I love you" , I didn't take seriously this insanity since we never met in real life , in fact I always do take such stuff with a grain of salt.

in some thread about partner's requirements (you know those threads where people list stuff) she said that guys shorter than her is a big turn off and she would never consider dating one. She's 5'5", I am 5'3.


Moral of the story: There are many things in the virtual world that doesn't meet the eye, and so virtual love is delusional.
