Dating is so hard for Autistic people

AmyLR94

Why is it so hard to find someone genuine when it comes to dating Pensive.

I thought I would take the big step and join Tinder (again) and FB dating (again). Today I was speaking to someone on FB and he sounded nice and genuine, but something was off and he kept calling me babe and baby with kisses. Then he said he was thinking of be all day and then when I said if he could hold back from calling me baby and babe as I don’t know him that well, he deactivates he account after sending me a message saying “Take Care, your not the lady for me” *sighs*

I feel like I should just stay single and alone Pensive, it’s so hard to find someone.

I just want to feel loved and do all those couple things that everyone does SobSob x

UPDATE: Thank you to the people who have commented so far Relaxed️. I have deleted Tinder and FB Dating. I don’t think Dating apps are for me as I find it so hard to understand if someone is being genuine or just messing with my feelings.

I turned 30 this year so I wanted to actually find someone who would like me the way I am *sighs* but it’s difficult to find anyone genuine these days. Looks like I will be alone with pets for the rest of my life.

  • I would *slightly* amend this as other people have pointed out, to say that online dating across the board has become incredibly annoying. If it's not the apps themselves trying to game people out of their money, it's other people trying to find the literal grain of sand perfect person for them, saying anything they can think of to do so.

    Remember to always be yourself when looking. The last thing you want is to be with someone who can't accept the real, awesome, autistic you because of the mask you put on the first date seemed so much more attractive to them. 

    If it's any consolation though, I am right there with you. Sometimes it feels like you should give up, but happiness is out there! You just need to persevere if you can.
