Yes I feel I should have been born in the 1990s when Asperger syndrome was more known about rather than in the 1960s when doctors accused me of having brain damage and recommended I be institutionalised (deported to a concentration camp) which was common because Asperger syndrome was not known outside the German speaking world. In mainstream schools no teaching assistants helping me being treated like I was a (sorry I cant say the word it's racist). Autistic children and those with ADHD being thought of as 'naughty' who needed more discipline. Yet everyone else, children with learning disabilities and or terminal illnesses get free holidays to the USA and used for inspiration porn but I am grateful I am not used as inspiration porn. Having to go into learning disability schools/nurseries from 1969-77. And they called the 1960s permissive and a counterculture I saw as hypocrisy.
That's all I got from the OP.
Perhaps it could be argue some of us were born 1000 years too early, as our superior mindsets on life dictate so?
Granted, this is a type of thread seen many times before.
But, love is a frustrating thing, not bound by logic or sensibility.
Learning to recognise that and appreciate it in others is IMO a good first step if positive influence is to prevail.
(TL;DR - are you here to help people and listen, or just shoot down every "nice guy" with equally miserable posts?)

It's probably a biased thing to say but i'm glad in some ways that I grew up in the 90's, as Britpop music was the thing! gadgets and technology were becoming more and more advanced ect.
However in other ways, I share old fashioned views when it comes to relationships and I feel as if I wanted to exist in a time where people had manners and were polite towards one another and people were generally respectable and I feel that has been lost and is non existent now. I don't like how people treat relationships like a joke either, I believe in the traditional marriage and kids, if of course if it's with the right person
I would like to be in a time where theirs equality between men and women but a time where people weren't solely fixated on using their phones 24/7 or computers and people had good manners.
I really don't know what time would've suited me but then I feel as if whatever time I exist in, I don't belong with humanity anyway.

Well said and I agree!
I believe that a women should look after her man and be their for him just like a man should look after his lady.
Wish more men thought like you.
