What’s my approach to dating? I don’t I can’t get other human being to even recognize me as the same species, let a lone to out to coffee and talk.

I’ve tried online dating. Multiple websites. Hundreds of messages sent to hundreds of people. At first I was picky but as my spirit was crushed I cast a wider and wider net until I had given up all notions of standards and was reaching out to anyone just to see if I could get a response from anyone.

I tried connecting to people based on something we had in common. I tried starting conversations. I tried complementing them. I tried straight up asking if they wanted to get coffee or see a movie. The only time I receive a response is when someone want to take the time to tell me how very much they are NOT interested in me.

I’ve tried going to place where people who share interests wth myself would congregate. I’m a massive loser so naturally I enjoy table top Role Playing Games, trading card games, video games and most things with a science fiction or fantasy theme. I tried going to local trading card game tournaments, book stores, gaming meet ups and the like. I’ve tried striking up conversations with people wherever I go if anything to brush up on the social skills I never developed (not just women, I just try my best to be friendly). But people can tell I’m not worth talking to.

I have Asperger’s Syndrome so body language and other non-verbal contact cues are beyond my understanding (not for lack of trying). To me it is almost as if everyone else has telepathy and they use that invisible language to convey the truth of what they are saying while openly and verbally lying to me about…. well just about anything. There is one form of body language I’m familiar with. I see it all the time. It’s the “I don’t care, please go away” body language. It’s unmistakable. I see it all of the time. Somehow people can use their non-Aspergered brains to tell, virtually instantaneously, that I am not wort their time.

I mean by the sheer odds of probability I should’ve ran into someone with a loser fetish or who was genuinely interested in giving me a chance. But I guess that’s like rolling a 6 sided die and hoping it lands on an 8. There’s statistically impossible and then there’s impossible.
