Why does dating always suck for me?
Okay so dating and relationships have always sucked for me. ALWAYS.
The only relationship I’ve had was with one of my former classmates (he’s neurodivergent like I am) from a private special education school we went too in the past. He has ADHD/dyslexic and I’m autistic. We only dated for seven months but we broke it off because he flirted with other girls in front of me, was a jerk and he admitted that he cheated on me. I was so pissed at him. I know some of my friends in college warned me about him so that was my fault for getting with him.
I’ve takes to guys (rest we’re neurotypical men) and went on dates but they SUCKED! I’m so frustrated with my dating life. Plus like I said, I’m autistic so that makes it more difficult.
Guys got putt off with my blunt honesty and I kind of do cut off people when they speak or jump in when I’m not involved so that’s what I need to work on.
My best friend introduced me to this guy that wanted to meet me so I decided to have him a chance. He texted me lovely good morning texts and we got to know each other. The thing is he lived in another state so it was like trying long distance relationships but those don’t work. After a month, he stopped speaking to me. I texted him and left him alone because I didn’t want to be needy. So after four months, I found out he was seeing someone else in his home-state. I wish he would have told me but I knew this wouldn’t work. My friend said I stopped responding to him and that’s why he moved on. Not true, life got in the way. A year later a guy ditched out date. He stood me up. After I told him I’m autistic, he ditched me, blocked me from social media and my phone. He asked he if there’s anything about me he needs to know so I was honest. I decided to take myself out of the dating world for a while. I haven’t dated in a decade.
I don’t want to me like these 30-40+ year olds that are single or been single for a decade. No offense.
What should I do? Why don’t men like me?
