Dating sites

Has anyone thought of trying these 2 site which were recommended to me and if so has any one used them or has any thoughts on them the 1st one is stars in the sky and the second one is flame introductions

there's hardly anybody on the pay dating sites, they cost too much, so they're pointless. In rural Wales, i assure you, even cupid something one is pointless and it's free, the only one with anybody on is the plenty of fish one. It's only worth paying if you're a hot 21yo girl, in which case you'll need to fight them off with a bargepole, otherwise just stick with the free ones! With all the dead accounts and stuff, for 50 people in a 10 mile radius you can expect 10 replies to your messages. NB beware, they make you pay to receive messages so check before creating an account

I am sorry but that can't b the site I used then as the one I used was a free site. I have jus found it www.autismchatcity.com

I took a look at www.autisticdating.co.uk, but I can't afford it, the price is far too steep. Is there no cheaper or free dating websites for autistics that has a better chance of success?

I think it's outrageous that they charge such a high fee to people that have autism that find socialising difficult in general. Profiteering off of people's social difficulties, I will never understand it.

I usually just google sites. I was on one autistic dating site but after a day I deleted it. I wasn't sure about it and I can't remember now what it was. But here goes I'll google it. I think this was it www.autisticdating.co.uk

I understand what you mean about a dating website mainly including older men. As a younger man, I have a different kind of issue, but in itself, can be just as bad. For one, I notice a lot of other girls around my age are interested in a lot of interests that are alien to me. I have a strong interest in Japan, now that means I only really listen to Japanese music, so I'd have very little, if any, shared interest in music. Not to mention, from the dating websites I've been on, those around my area are not interested in video games like I am. 

I'll have a look at the website you mentioned.

When it comes to asperger's syndrome/autism dating websites, I've been on one called www.aspergersdatingsite.com. However; when I check for girls around my age and area, I come up with nothing but people with no photos, I don't know if I could trust someone without a picture. This is the reason why I stuck to ordinary dating websites, and I read on another forum that there are some autistic dating websites where there are more men than women. I've tried other autistic dating websites, but again, I had no luck.

I'm curious, what are the autistic/asperger's syndrome dating websites that you could recommend?

I've been on a dating site now for many months although I don't use it much. Its usually older men trying to chat or guys only after one thing. As although the website is good and I know a few friends who use it. www.freedating.co.uk. there are how ever dating site for people with ASD

Yes, I've experienced a lot of repetition in dating websites myself, some of them looked like clones of another, >.<;. People are far too judgemental, I totally agree with you. I'm absolutely certain that is one of the main reasons why I had no success, -_-. I've never been one to alter my profile to match others, I've been more one to alter my profile to show more of myself, because I want to stay true to myself. I don't want to alter my profile to 'fit in' with the other people because I want to find a place where I feel comfortable. To me, feeling comfortable is most important because I'd be around people I feel a little more confident with, I wouldn't want to be around people who judge us because of what we look like or what we say, because they could just as easily judge us because of our conditions, >.<;.

Anyway, thank you very much for the link to the Natural Friends website, I didn't notice that myself in the past, so I'll certainly give it a try, .

I did it for a while, rather half-heartedly. Got annoyed that most men seemed to only want women who were younger than them, which is an instant turn-off, whatever age I or they are. 

I have been off the dating scene for years (realised I need neutral territory!), but have heard good things about Natural Friends www.naturalfriends.co.uk/about-us

All: I'm new on this site and I've only just begun. I've been on a couple of dating websites myself, and I found it extremely disappointing. I was always under the impression that you should 'be yourself'. However; if I am myself, I end up writing far more in the introduction than I'm sure I'm meant to. The trouble is, I have a habit of writing a lot because I always feel that the more you write the more you may attract someone with similar interests. Unfortunately, this didn't work to my favour. I am aware of this, and yet, I would rather be myself than portray myself as someone I'm not. 

I did get a couple of people writing to me, one was commenting on the fact that I answered every question with a description. She lives in India, and I knew nothing would come of it, but I wrote to her for a while, things went well, and it was interesting writing to her. However; in the end, we slipped out of contact.

The other person who wrote to me barely wrote a few words, and it was so awkward writing to her as both the fact that she was hardly responding to practically any of my questions, and she was clearly writing on a mobile phone. Now, there is a big difference between writing on a phone and computer, and they would normally expect me to write much less than I do, but it's not easy for me to cut down on my writing. We exchanged mobile phone numbers, purely for the intention of sending text messages and not to call her up as I would never be able to cope with that, especially so early in communication. We texted each other a few times, but again, we just started to slip out of contact until eventually I sent a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year message in 2013, and I received no reply.

These are just two examples of what I experienced and the failure that I ended up with. The only person I ever wrote to for longer than a month was the girl from India. Whenever I write to someone I get practically no responses and those that I do only write to me once, and that's it.

Laddo: I also discovered a lot of expensive dating websites and I completely steered clear of them.

I also wish you all the luck I can muster in hoping that you are successful at creating a website for people with ASD that is both free and promotes equality. I would be very interest when you do. When you do, please come back and tell us all. You'd have my full support, .

I found a couple of websites and signed up to one but they have their problems. You have to pay a hefty price for most of them (£34.99 a month? No thanks!) and male members heavily outnumber female members. Not very good for either of us, Hope! I would love to set up a website for people with ASDs that is not only free but also accomodates for non-heterosexual members including asexual people as well as heteros. Maybe someday when I've learnt a bit more web coding I can do this. It may sound silly to some, but I really do want someone to love so much.

Going a bit off-topic here, but I have always admired asexual people. There's something rather beautiful about love that doesn't have a strong sexual aspect to it

I am in a similar position but have never been in a relationship before. My situation is complicated by being an asexual female with AS, and having a romantic preference for other women. Many dating sites are so pornographic that it is a real turn off, and I am not really interested in the physical aspect of relationships. I fall in love as much with someone's mind as I do their body, and I am a platonic idealist when it comes to love.
