| nope. I've only told maybe 3 people in real life. I'm especially leery of telling a woman I'm with, even if I know we're at the stage where I know she is already okay with who I am. Weird, isn't it? I think I just don't want to be labeled. People who know me, know what I'm like as a person. No need ... |

| I love "hot" girls... My dilemma is I have never had luck getting them! This is odd in a way, because I would consider myself to be a good match for a "hot" girl. I'm 6"2, muscular, nice eyes, have a well paying job, etc. I still have the AS downfalls though, and don't have many NT friends (so this ... |

| On the bright side I am seeing a different girl, and things look bright. I am going to try and hold back on the physical intimacy, hopefully this one turns out differently. Perhaps she suspected you were out shopping for her replacement already, or at the very least felt that you were not committed... |

| Okay, well I texted with her a bit on friday evening. When I asked her if she wanted to hang out on saturday night, she didn't reply. I tried phoning, no reply. Waited till today, and I just texted her asking if everything was okay. No reply. I would like to discuss things, but I don't think she wan... |

| I agree. 3 months is way too long. It also depends on the kinda women you're interested in. The kinda women I'd want to be with aren't likely to be that put off by my AS I don't think 3 months is just a rough estimate... I mean, date her long enough that you do have a relationship and a connection ... |

agreed. Additionally, it depends on the person. Some people will be disapointed no matter what. |

| You shouldn't be talking about depression, AS, addictions, etc. until after 3 months into things... possibly when things begin to get more serious. Anything less than this is just shooting yourself in the foot. They say "be yourself" but that means show the good, attractive parts of yourself... the ... |

| Sex is a need for you. For her, from your OP, it looks like she has a need to know that you appreciate her for more than just sex. Do you? I think so. I've enjoyed the time we spend together. It's hard to get to know each other though. Most of my past are things I don't want to discuss too much, an... |

| If she doesn't want to be with me, I don't care, just quit wasting my time. Is sex all you want out of the relationship? If she isn't giving up the sex is she wasting your time? Is it possible that she senses this and that is why she won't have sex with you anymore? This is not how women want to be... |

| She gave you a couple of shots, you weren't very good at it and she doesn't want to do it again. Sex is not the only barometer of a relationship. You should be appreciative that she is spending time with you. :) okay that's pretty blunt :roll: If she doesn't want to be with me, I don't care, just q... |

| At this point in my journey to get a successful relationship, I feel like I am starting to bottom out in my ability to be successful with women. I have been told that to really give a woman what she wants (and this is different for every woman), I need to be able to know what she is thinking. Case i... |
