I feel like a Freak and cannot not find someone who would want a relationship with me!

JackRHOSullivan

Hi,

My name is Jack [edited by mod] and I have Asperger's Syndrome and Tourette's Syndrome (I have body movements and noises that I cannot control but I do not swear.)

Due to my special needs, I have found it impossbile to find someone my age that would want to be in a realtionship with me. I am hetrosexual but feel that my special needs alienantes me from from 17-18 year old girls. Is this normal in Asperger's or is it just something my mind is doing to me as I feel that I need a relationship to help me feel less lonely?

  • Don't worry Jack, I understand that at your age it's natural to be seeking a relationship but you are so young and have many years to sort that stuff out.  Even NTs are still finding themselves at that age and don't settle into relationships until they are older and that's if they even find someone.

    Don't let your Asperger's hold you back.  You could join a social group for Aspies (you can search on the NAS website for what is in your area) so that you would feel less different.
