this is for both gender.
ever meet a woman or man,that you
got along with,and a week later,they completely
ignore you,or don't want to talk to you.

I've had women that I got along with,no
hostile,no pickup line,just good conversation,
but for some reason,they start ignoring me,
and not being friendly.
one week their nice,then the next week
their mean.

Absolutely! It happens again and again. The worst part is that they never tell me why. It doesn't necessarily happen after a week; it seems that girls get less comfortable around me just as I begin to become comfortable around them.

I've had it happen not only with members of the opposite sex, but of the same sex as well. It has always been a source of confusion for me - since I will feel like I'm finally making a decent friend, then they decide, for reasons unbeknownst to me, to completely ignore me. Perhaps I'm naive, but I think that if you are going to stop communicating with someone that you should at least have the common decency to let them know why.

This is actually such a commonality nowadays that it has been referred to in the media as "ghosting". Apparently it's largely a product of the digital age.

it makes me think of the following thoughts-

"hell is other people"
"90% of people give the other 10% a bad reputation."

That happens to me too.

Rarely. Not after a week at least. Probably after a year or so (once)

I have to ask, how often do you speak to them after you get the impression it is ok to engage them in conversation?
The manager above me in my store tends to attract weirdos into the store for no other reason than she is attractive.
The moment she responds to them they keep coming into the store only to say hi, no other purpose and they don't leave...and keep trying to think of things to talk about to prolong their stay. After about a week we just have to blank them out or act cruel to be kind.

So yeah, think about the situation. After they first talk to you, how many times have you gone to say hello to them. How long are you talking to them for. What are you talking about. What vibes are you giving off. Sometimes people only talk to you because it's the nice thing to do or they feel sorry for you (this would happen to me in my young adulthood). There's a lot to consider.

Well, it could be that they sent out flirting signals and you missed it and keep going back thinking all is well, when in fact they are already pissed off by you not responding and following your cue.

It's likely that you did something socially inappropriate without realizing it, those of us with Autism tend to break social rules and boundaries that we are not even aware of the majority of the time. Just keep
