Well I understand that they can be honest but, I (NT) have lived terrible embarassing situations with a girl I was going out with. She refused to go out with me because she imagined things just things that never happened to me. For some reason she did not rely on me, why ??? If I was a gentleman?? I respected her very much but I got very angry with her. I supposed I didn´t have the patience to handle the situation.

I don´t know but I wonder why that defensive character if I was never going to hurt her...

I have had similar experiences with a girl who, thinking about it retrospectively could have been AS. After I got to know her more it turned out she had massive issues with trust which I could relate to. She had been through a really rough time as a kid and it is difficult sometimes not to let that colour how you experience the world later on.

Another factor could be finding it difficult to imagine the outcome of a situation and letting low self esteem colour that too.

If an aspie has been betrayed in any way, he or she will have a hard time trusting anyone else ever again...

yeah, but he said the things never happened to him, and she only imagined it. so she's transfering her feelings onto him, which doesnt sound right. i think this can be very frustrating for NTs, who have learned to forgive and forget, or to try to see all sides of the coin- and then for something like this to happen it really just makes you feel horribly down. it's impossible to go through life without someone having done something, intentionally or unintentionally, so it seems somewhat unrealistic to hold grudges and for it to blot out everything good the person has done. otherwise you might as well hate every human being, including yourself. no one is perfect unless they are intentionally trying to hurt you, but from what malehonesty said it seems like it was a bad mistake that made her feel this way. seems like a wall you cant break down to get through to that person. and sometimes you just grow weary.

So far, that's never happened, so I won't worry about that now.

I am like that also, until I find something else to pin it on.
For instance, something girl does something very rude or mean and I'm like, "Stupid girls!" and won't trust them.
Eventually I change my thinking along the lines of, "Well, maybe not girls...but selfish girls" and later to "Selfish, spoiled, know-it-all girls". (Actually pin-pointing the problem so its not so generic..keeps my options still basically fully open while avoiding the particular types of personalities that I hate due to bad experience(s)).

For NTs this is absolutely frustrating because we can see the both sides of the coin. Aspies can see only one side. I admit that I got very angry because she never said a word about her problem but I suddenley found out what she had. Well! the outcome is that I have lost a woman I fell in love with. Probably I never knew how to adapt to the circumstances. It is really very painfull but I will try to forget her with time. In fact it is even more frustrating that all my gentlemanliness and good faith has been useless as she understood my good faith as invading her private life or being manipulating. I was trying to help her and make her very very happy.

Psychology is very tough area. If you are rejected you cannot do anything. I am sure I could have done a lot good for her.

Bye! and thanks for your comments.

She told me a lot of lies, I had understood that Aspies don´t lie, so why did she do it? Probably she was scared of my reaction!!??
