Please be honest and don’t sugarcoat it. Is it true that nobody wants to date a person with Autism/Asperger’s Syndrome? [I Live With Autism]

Last month I posted a post asking autistic people if they’ve been dumped because they have autism/Asperger’s Syndrome?

One person answered this,
“I’m going to be very blunt and you’re not going to like it, but I don’t sugarcoat things. Most people don’t wanna date someone with autism. They don’t. You’re better off without that guy. Guys don’t wanna dare an autistic woman. They want someone that’s normal. It isn’t your fault you have it but remember YOU asked. Maybe you’re just better off dating a guy with a disability. Date an autistic guy.”

I hope someone can just look past out disability. I’ve been dumped three times because of it. I mean they asked me about something they don’t know about me and I was honest. I was hesitant to tell them but it was better if I told the truth.

No, that’s really not true. Although it can have it’s challenges. Often times people with aspergers date other people with aspergers 🙂

Often times people who are ignorant (not insulting just not knowing) to what autism and aspergers is they make incorrect generalized assumptions. It is still a poorly understood subject and they are building on it everyday.

Just be honest with people and upfront so that when someone finds out it won’t be so much of a shock 🙂

Tell the guy straight up, first thing if you can't take it, that's was never the guy for you anyway, that way you don't form an attachment to them, no feelings whatsoever, we're women, if we put all our cards in the table, someone will be interested, bluntness can be intriguing to those, who are for us.

I just recently told my boyfriend, and he said he guessed it already.

No, it's not true, but if somebody doesn't want you for that reason then you are better off without them.

@purplepen yeah that is true. I mean he did ask me what something about me he doesn’t know when I was honest with him and I told him the truth. But whatever it’s his loss.

Fuck yeah it’s true! I mean why the hell would they? I wouldn’t want to date a guy with autism. I would be fucking miserable and the relationship would not last. Autism people should date each other.
Sounds blunt and cruel but I’m just being honest.

I have undiagnosed Asperger's and have been married twice and had a half dozen girlfriends, as well as bedding 50 women.
