Being on the spectrum is making me undateable

I've been with my partner for almost ten years now :) She's not only my lovely wife-to-be, but she is also my best-friend too. Maybe rethink your tactics a little, perhaps there is another way to find companionship beyond a dating site and a coffee shop :)

What, even for a useless weirdo/geek like me? Lol

That kind of talk is definitely not going to get you companionship  Be confident in yourself, and others will do too. A significant other would rather their potential suitor had more self-respect than constantly belittling themselves. It's a real turn-off believe me  

The Greek gods believed we all had two halves to make a unit, hence the term "the other half". Fear not, your time will come so long as you bide your time and heed advice from others. 

It'll happen. Just remain true to yourself and you'll persevere mate ️

"You are only masking to get a chance to "show your worth" to the other person through the other conversations you can have.

The "no weirdos" defence is our biggest challenge in getting to talk to the prospective dates so think of it more as deferring showing your true self until you are confident it will be received well. If they seem like they will freak out then it gives you time to back out with grace and keep any reputation intact."

"If you are trying to socialise with a neurotypical then being yourself is often a bad move until they get to "know" you a bit better - they get freaked out by our authentic selves as we bare a striking resemblance to the sort of weirdos they were were warned about by their parents.

Masking greatly helps the initial interaction and gives you a chance to "sell yourself" better to a prospective date."

He said a lot of things mate. Anything specific you wish for me to read?

Just be you. Be weird and wonderful. Someone will love you for the person you are, not for the person you aren't Stay true to yourself, and they will too
