The relationships and intimacy strategy thread

The purpose of this thread

Most autistic people seem to have issues with their love lives and forming romantic relationships. But most of us seem to really want it. So why don't we pool our knowledge?

This is a place to share what has and hasn't worked for you when it comes to finding sex and or love. Happy married? Tell us how it happened. Did your pick up line crash and burn? Tell us here.

This is the place to brainstorm on how to help autistic people improve their love lives whether that's a one night stand or finding the one and only love of their lives.

What is this thread not!

This is not a looking for a date thread.

This is not the place to moan about how afully hard dating is etc. Productive discussion please. Even if that's just learning from others mistakes.

  • For me I was almost oblivious and I'd be single if it wasn't for the attention of others. I suppose I'm not awful looking and have a reasonable sense of humour which I tend to use offensively.

    When you have a really low opinion of your self and others show interest it can be wonderful.

    I met my wife at a pub quiz, I'm a fact sponge so quizzes are something I excel at. We are different but reasonably similar. (Just don't tell her)
