| I think you're right darkphantomx1, it's a looks thing. I'm just not attractive. I don't buy this whole personality counts and "love yourself" stuff that the rest of the world tries to come up with. Basically, anyone who is physically attractive will be loved, because people are sexually ... |

| I feel I should point out that from my standpoint at least, weird games aren't all bad. I think it's healthy to acknowledge the gift of a challenge sometimes, as one of those "free tech support means I love you" types that's just a cornerstone of how I live. I don't see that as a weird ga... |

| I would say don't wait so long to gauge if there is mutual attraction. After you have known a gal for a few weeks, that is honestly long enough for her get a feel for whether or not she feels potential for chemistry. If she does feel potential for chemistry and isn't the type to play games, then she... |

| In my observations and personal experiences, most NT females look for signs that you interact with them differently than you do other females. This is probably by far the most common thing we tend to look for, as evidence that you are possibly interested. So there is really a lot of room to give tho... |

| Did they give the sample size? I don't think that is super common, or maybe it's an FPS thing, I don't know. I play World of Warcraft, and most of the guys I have played with over the years have been just fine. The nasty guys are rare, and often if a nasty guy lashes out at me or another female play... |

| From an NT female perspective, I wouldn't mind expressing interest first, but only if there were signs that I had a decent chance. I could be brave with a little bit of encouragement, but not with no encouragement at all. I mean if I were really crushing on a guy, and I could tell he was shy, then i... |

| People with Asperger's have brains. They can listen to reason. They can improve their situation. This guy doesn't seem to want to listen. Frequently, these sort of people need to be told, in no uncertain terms, that their behavior is not acceptable. Sometimes, one has to be rough. You can't coddle ... |

| He doesn't sound like he attempts to take into account your feelings, or that he believes in interpersonal give-and-take. Apparently, it's his way or the highway. It seems as if some people with Asperger's act this way--but it's not universally Asperger's. There just might be something else at play... |

| the best predictor of future behavior is past behavior. the same problems you had last time are likely to come up again. if that doesn't bother you, tell him you appreciate him having kept your note and wouldn't mind seeing him. Thank you for the advice. I never figured out what caused him to get s... |

| For some reason, "fear of commitment" comes to my mind more than "Asperger's." Even to this day, I might get irritable to my wife because I feel "stuck"--I don't feel "free." So you think that is a separate issue from the Asperger's? I remember that some of h... |

| Sorry in advance that this is long. I do not have Asperger's, just some anxiety and depression issues that surface from time to time. My ex-boyfriend is an Aspie. We were together for a few years. Most of the time we got along really, really well. It probably helped that we had nearly all the same i... |
