Hi. My name is Michael. I am 23 years old and I live in Arizona, USA. I am fairly new to the forum and was recently introduced to the Eligible Odd Bods forum. I was diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome at the age of ten but first learned more about it when I was seventeen years old. I recently posted a topic in the love and dating section of the forum called,” looking for a special girl friend” and I was not happy with the feedback that I received from some of the members so I thought I would give this a try. I am looking for a girl who has been diagnosed with Asperger's and would possibly want to get to know someone like me. I am looking for a girl ages 20-30. The qualities that I am looking for in a young lady are someone who is loving, caring, supportive during the calm and rocky seas, honest, trustworthy, loyal, friendly, and someone who has an open mind.

In my spare time I am a league and competitive bowler, I like to write and I am in the process of writing a book and write poems on occasion, I also go out to different events and talk about what it is like living with Asperger's.

It is not like I have not been in a relationship before because I have and I am not saying that I am looking for a relationship now although it would be nice. I am looking for a special girl friend who I could eventually talk to about anything and everything with topics spanning from A to Z and hopefully when she was comfortable enough with me that she would feel that she could come and talk to me about anything and everything with topics spanning from A to Z. I am just looking for someone who would be willing to get to know me and I could get to know them and eventually I would be able to open up about some of the problems I feel I have when it not only comes to finding a girl and asking her about but how I am not afraid to admit that I worry about what kind of label or connection I have with her meaning if we are close friends who have an open relationship or if we are dating and calling ourselves a boyfriend/girlfriend couple. Also, I am afraid of how to approach things once we are dating in terms of going on dates in public and having the opportunity to spend time alone together.

Ideally, I would not mind talking on the computer because I am much more comfortable with that because one of the most difficult obstacles that I have found to over come for me, personally, is the aspect of being so shy when I am talking to someone face to face because I feel I might say or ask something that might scare the young lady away from me and that is something I would like to avoid. I am more comfortable talking to people by way of the computer because I am scared sometimes of what their reaction might be when I bring up certain topics.

I have also had my share of my heart getting broken and I am not afraid to admit that I have possibly broken some hearts as well. I just hope that I can find that special friend soon because I feel like I have a lot of good qualities a girl would want in a guy but are to afraid to take a chance with me because of my sudden mood changes and because I worry a lot.

If it sounds like you might be a good match for me feel free to send me a private message and do not hesitate to ask me any questions that you may have I am a very open minded person and I hope you are too. Looking forward to hearing from you.

So you thought you would give posting the exact same thread in the exact same forum a try?

LMAO

I am sorry that I made this mistake. I was trying to post this in a different topic and was not sure how to do it.

that was very hurtful and I hope you will take the time to think about what you have to say before you say because you never know how it may affect someone in the long run.

hope you understand that I made a mistake but I was able to get the post where it needed to be.

I don't know j5689 or J-P but I think they need to take a good hard look at themselves. This is a forum for support, not ridicule. I would be careful, Michael, the more you desire the more vulnerable you are to maneaters.

First off, Aspie guys outnumber aspie girls by 5 to 1. Then compare single guys to single girls on this site, and lets just say the ratio now gets even more lopsided.
Second, most of the women here prefer other women for partners (read some threads in the womens discussion section, and you'll see what I am talking about).
Third, this isn't a dating site. I would assume most people didn't register here to find a partner, thats what sites like e-harmony are for. You would have better luck on myspace, then on here.

You said on another post, that you were frustrated with the lack of responses you were getting. Well, with these kind of odds, I wouldn't get my hopes up. I am not saying this to make fun of you, I am writing this because you won't have much luck here, and it seems like you are setting yourself up for disappointment.

I am not sure what to say to that except to ask, " was that supposed to be a serious response?"

Ya know, crapping on people who tried to give you some advice, isn't really the best way to make friends here. Yes, it was a serious response.

Normally, I'd delete my response, since you don't want my advice, but I hope someone else reads this thread and takes something from what I wrote.

For some reason I got the impression that he was gonna be one of those thick-headed people who spams duplicate threads to see if they get a different response the 2nd time.

I guess I was wrong, my bad.

As observer said though, this still isn't a dating site though. But if the rules allow you to post as if it was, then so be it.
