Kinda random. Anyway, I know you can't realize it now, but severe hair loss shouldn't be a dealbreaker (even if he's also way thin.) For me the worst of that happened practically overnight; if it can happen to me, it can happen to any guy. Just kinda a reminder, if he's thin and looks strange with just 3 locks of hair left on top... doesn't mean he has to be written off altogether, right? Maybe this was low-key pathetic, but it's something to remember? Could you do that at least? The way this ha…

I'm the guy from before this last one, for context. I just don't really agree with a lot of this stuff, or at least not some of the Big names, who have lots of so-called "in-field" videos of successful approach. We can't really know what the outcomes of those snippets were. Was some of it staged? What exactly was edited out? Don't forget endless conflicts of interest. Tyler RSD I think is more of a conman than whatever else he claimed to be. I'm not saying approach doesn't work, though, certainl…

Yes, but for a certain percentage, only... (cue infamous number line) I may be wrong, but then... anecdotes? (Provided you're not a witty extrovert or a standout in some other way)

"Can you improve your profession/career somehow? Can you create a fun environment with your loved ones? Are you able to get information from strangers? Are you able to create fun frames with strangers?" No to most of that, but that don't mean it's all 'done gone', as they say. Trust me on that.

Fair enough in principle, if you're actually serious that it works for you. Pretty much every time I've asked about cold approach in the past, the guys saying it works go on to explain it's like 1 in 400+ or something. But even if it does work, they're still just looking for a 'winner' of sorts... and that's pretty much a very high bar to meet for many of us. If you know of any genuine outcast or 'in a halfway house, unemployed' types who still manage to find someone, etc, lemme know

I agree it's best to do things that way--if one can. But then, in my case, things like being socially outcast and unable to change that, on the spectrum, quite a bit older, in legit poor health, and with effectively no future... well not only does it make that kind of thing impractical, it quite makes it impossible. There is no social circle for me, because frankly I am not sought by anyone, nor can I 'get out there' anymore; for that and many other reasons, I relate to exactly no one even remot…

In all honesty I think something like this, https://www.reddit.com/r/seduction/comments/xvvgiz/how_come_women_are_allowed_to_have_standards_but/ir3fg8y/ Is both in poor-taste, and has little to say about real life. This whole "women are gatekeepers of X, while men are gatekeepers of Y" is more incel nonsense. True sometimes, not true others. How's that? I think a lot of folks in this thread need to touch grass. This is all a bunch of self-loathing/generalized hatred from folks who barely know an…

One of the reasons I'm so averse to take a leap on this is I know what's waiting. I'm profoundly sensitive to what others will think or say, even things that have been said behind my back--and then come back to me, through back-channels. I don't know how to shrug it off, man. Call me either paranoid, or Rejection Sensitive, you decide. But here's my reason for "why" this is. I know people can often be manipulative jerks. And I can't even read social situations properly--the only thing you can do…

But asocial/antisocial women are not always going to connect with highly social men, correct? It's not as if "very social men" are higher status by default, either. I'm sure you have anecdotes/examples of asocial guys that still had fling, or something, right. but what you’re doing right now is clearly not working. This is true. But I did not mean to say "literally exactly the same way" rather I was trying to suggest, "a few tweaks here and there." Small compromises, but no full overnight leap. …

I'm still saying that "socially motivated" is a different thing here, which I never understood--I never had it. You seem to have it in spades. Certainly, while less common, some autistic men are like that. I have known a few guys on spectrum who insisted on being social, no matter what--but despite being resilient, they were nonetheless excluded or bullied for years. They were longterm depressed because of it. To me, I have a fundamental disagreement with that very approach. I still believe it's…

Well I mean, you may or may not have met someone like me before. You have to tailor your advice properly because despite being on spectrum, your origins and motivations (you appear to have a very 'social' drive, while my motivations are undeniably asocial/antisocial, by nature) are very different. Looking at what you wrote just now, I'm not even imagining a way in which more than 10% of that is doable. Autism (especially with ADHD comorbid, and not treatable with meds) does have a large range of…

Maybe you get it to an extent? I don't know. The thing is, though, it don't look like you gave up on life. I must admit, that's what I've done, and it was long ago when it started... still haven't gotten up even at this late stage. But anyhoo, I'm guessing you eventually found some success with women because you climbed a few social ladders, something like that? Maybe you were shy, but autistic I'm guessing you ain't. You see, that's the deal here. There are some folks for which this angle canno…

You don't get it. "Be social and meet people." It works for extraverts or normal introverts. Myself? I'm not normal, and can't really pretend to be. I didn't get those cards. I don't function well enough for that. I can only play the hand I was dealt. Okay, so if I can't be 1/10th as social as the next guy, what then?

You just don't get it. It's not about 'gaining the maturity to allow yourself to grow' as some like to tell me. I'm socially awkward and autistic, myself. There is no type of group setting where I could even feel comfortable, in the first place. It's not just lacking maturity. Can you imagine a social pariah, like me, joining the types of groups you suggest? I know a decent guy who did all that, and more, but nothing came of it in terms of women. My friend does the "sports groups." In about 15 y…

Not 1 single friend and I only smashed 1 overweight woman last year from tinder. Not proud of it at all and never again will I settle 🤮 No success online. Honestly I'm kinda interested in this tidbit here. What makes you say "y'know I regret that" in such a pronounced way. I think (but not sure) you could provide more detail without heading into controversial or embarrassing territory. I'd like that, man.

Meetups and group events can be demoralizing for 'ne'er-do-well' guys past 30. I decided it's better for me to avoid it. I'm an autistic guy with a very abnormal life (too late to fix most of it)... can you imagine the way I'd feel, if I joined X or Y group to find they're all college-educated, career-driven, married, witty, and I'm there, with none of that?

Alright, but could I be myself, though? I don't know that I can realistically emulate extroversion. I'm not just introverted, I'm also on the spectrum. There's too much distance between my core traits and "extroverted" traits to seem believable, without giving it away, without seeming "try hard" and thus creepy. I hardly even know how to do "social" anything, in a sense, anymore. I've lost a lot of that over time due to avoidance. They aren't really even skills I care to resurrect that much, mos…

I mean the irony is, you're probably not too far-off from my view on it there, the main difference being you think cold approach could work if a guy isn't above average in looks. But what you got between the lines ain't much better. You probably mean, "Approach could still work if you don't have the looks or musculature. But then you'd have to offer the good status/money.

They are all routinely debunked by folks who use critical thinking, frankly.

I don't think a guy needs to have his stuff together to find someone, at least for a fling, though?

I'm sorry but approaching doesn't work, they have to know you well enough beforehand... what I'm saying is, it's either you're approaching as part of your social circle game, or it's a no-go.

I think a lot of it comes down to, I don't want to be the one they laugh at.

It makes sense on paper, but you're not seeing this from the point of view of an autistic guy. Social groups and common interest groups have hierarchies, which is problem for those (like me) who aren't quite high-functioning on society's terms. (While I am technically high-functioning, my life is the opposite.) As I've come to understand, when they keep up with Jones, an autistic guy has a point of entry in social groups.

Yeah but I can't realistically do things like the OP. It's not as if a struggling guy can "man up" and transform into a well-dressed and pro-social type--I know the whole "you don't have to be who you were 5 minutes ago" meme, but it doesn't really work like that. I mean if you're broken and defective esp. in a social way, you don't get a "social reboot" after living a life where misanthropy is the norm. I can work within my framework, but how?

I don't know what else a guy could do, but hopefully being myself as I am now, minus the self-loathing, could be enough?

Yeah I can see the argument for "being a decent person" can compensate even in the face of "low status" or abnormal life, etc. That may be true sometimes, but let me explain why it's so uncommon for some guys to have this "poise" you speak of.

I prefer to agree with this. Try and fail, get a little seasoned, and then, with a bit of luck, good woman will be there; maybe a fling or something more. As redundant as it sounds, that's the idea anyway. After all let's be honest with ourselves, we have some inbuilt desire that (barring unusual cases) cannot be reliably ignored without undue consequence. For a complete absence of intimacy or 'validation' so to speak, will tend to result in harmful loneliness longterm. Better to have found even…

But there's a lot of women who will not be receptive, and especially if the guy is not her type. Are you aware some guys have almost run into trouble, just because of a basic cold approach? If you don't believe me, put up a thread asking if women don't mind being approached. Or just go to the subreddits where they are majority user, and look for it.

I'm a wallflower who can't stand social events in general. The "group dynamics" thing ruins everything... I'm always seen as "low value" because I don't have the wit and resourcefulness in group conversation. Is there any way to meet women (but not online) that's more 1-1 and perhaps better for introverts?

No disrespect, but in the interest of "sharing inner thoughts" a bit more, this is an example of the type of thing that rubs me a bit wrong: I came to the profession by way of clinical sexology (I am a certified sex coach, my training cumulatively is over 1000 hours) and sociology (I have a master's in sociology, I wrote my thesis about pickup artists), so it's not like I woke up one day and just thought - huh, why don't I do this. Of course, it's fully understandable that if asked about your "b…

How would I say this without being disrespectful. I'm aware some folks online are offering services of some kind, and that means it's necessary to advertise. There's nothing wrong with this. However in a forum like this, where the topic at hand is also part-and-parcel to the business of a member... I'm just saying it can be an issue. Because then it becomes "was this an attempt to attract a client." It may be possible you are entirely genuine. But it's also possible there is "false hope" going o…

Hope you're doing better. So, it be good. I can't say there's anything problematic about what you said here. But you haven't provided much in the way of guidelines to find what I'm looking for. Before it goes there, I would have to remark that most online things seem impractical--the competition is too high for a guy like me if we're being honest. Look at the demand for example, most women in those places are very clear they only want serious relationships. And contrary to what some would think,…

Appreciation for BOP is to me not unlike appreciating Red/Pill. The principles are sound enough, but it does not have to be done that way. BOP is fairly zero-sum, "be better than the next guy" mentality. Offer resources, be a winner, type of thing. That's not one-size-fits-all, man. Honestly the more you agree with those things, the more cynical and even bitter, you will become. If you can't have that kind of conventional value, what then? The unfortunate effect is self-loathing and eventually d…

Perhaps I would want to ask a question or two. You're only 5'10" and you believe you're autistic, I would ask how you find dames. Is it all about the "musician" thing...?

The other guy's account was literally "RachmaninoffFan" and so I am wondering if you are his other account, since some folks use two or more different accounts. I talked to this guy last about one month ago. You can just tell me if you're the same guy or not, just admit it. I don't mind. He claimed to be a precocious pianist on the spectrum.

A bit of an angry rant ahead, fair warning. About "it's great that you're only going for the real thing." But I'd say it's only great for you because you have the height, status, and money. Probably you're not autistic either. What about those of us who don't have these things--and are on the spectrum, to boot? Every day I resort to blaming genetics at some point.

Another guy in this thread put it a different way, which I fear is far more reflective of current reality, than your simple explanation. Here's the quote: Sadly, if your not super tall, or super paid the dating game most time is useless. Women nowadays would even prefer to date each other over an average man. You might as well say what's incorrect, there. Everything I've seen confirms it, man... (Maybe that last bit is hyperbolic, but the first statement is too true.)

What if he can't be 15-20%? You act as if "anyone could" with some effort. He's an autistic guy who's only 5'8" and apparently lacks the capacity to hold a more prestigious job title. Especially with autism, it's not always about effort, there are real limitations. Normal folk are often able to "adapt" to harsh societal conditions or even convincingly fake the symbols of status, but this is not a quality that most spectrumites really have.

But it's not as if a 5'8" autistic guy would, in theory, have that much of a better chance if he went old-fashioned. It's also clear from his words, he has rejection sensitivity and a shaky self-image. Consider that in real life, rejection is often harsher than the online variety. Not saying the guy "should not try at all" but I'm saying in this case, what else could be done? The odds are very low, apparently, no matter what.

Or if it goes well, is it always going to reach quickly the point where they ask what I do and then compare it to "median guy" in my age group; in other words, the "normality" checks.

Don't believe that you need "dat good career, high status" to have a chance in this game. In itself, those thought processes (while validated as partly true, by society) show you are making this into a difficult game, like a rat-race, where you can only have a chance if you're better than the next guy. If homeless guys can (even if rarely) get it done, so can you. But they don't believe they are "insufficient value, compared to the rest" so stop with that nonsense. It's holding you back.

95% of every comment in this thread disagrees with the OP (and by extension, I guess also what you said here?) I'd love to believe you are honest and it works for you. And also (you have not specified) that the times you were successful, didn't also coincide with great looks or high status. If nothing else, why do you think so many guys here are saying the OP's wrong and maybe it's time give up? Are negative voices not to be taken seriously, simply because they aren't optimistic?

I'm sorry to react with a bit of skepticism, but you are generally talking about Night Game and social circle game. I've accepted those things aren't really going to work for me, though... my reason (even if it's not an excuse) is I'm an autistic guy. Nor do I have motivation enough to fine tune everything so that I could minimize the impact of sensory stimulation (as a hypersensitive), which is a problem with Night game.

Women in those places are usually taken or otherwise aware many guys are there for that. It only works if you have great social skills or very attractive; if you can't check either box, you won't have any success there. Not to say one shouldn't join their interest group, but if you want to find anyone, you need to be high value, man.

But that doesn't have to be status, money and social circle nonsense. Conventionally low-value autistic men (few prospects, wonky social skills, highly aloof) can improve their value in unconventional ways. There are intangibles after that, too.

Being older is also a bitch, and if you're at that point the best way to abuse autism is in Elon Musk-esque way (if he is really autistic, and I'm not even the biggest fan)..

It’s not hard to have a high body count nowadays with OLD and the shift in societal viewpoints about casual sex and hooking up. yes but only with height, social status, or at least good money. Many men don't apply for any one of those. Autistic men who don't have one of those qualities (most will not) tend to be dateless virgins for life.

Yeah, but when that happens it's usually just about the bread, or the status.

If you're an autistic guy who cannot have a career, there will still be decent women for you, hopefully is the correct thing to say, here?

Well top 10% could be interpreted literally, while it's more of a scale where money and status come into sharp consideration if you're not great lookswise; if pressed, you would likely confirm the point, since you claim you had some success there.

Define some of the things that comprise a guy who gives himself value. Y'know, what most women want is generally a guy who has "more to offer than the next guy" and for that you need to have a few "markers of status" to prove it, which I don't have and generally lack realistic access to. If I had the looks and/or height, probably it wouldn't matter if I had the status, money, or not... but as it turns out, I'm merely 5'9" and average looking on the good days. And with my thin frame, it's a real …

It's clear he means higher education, stable career, and decent money. But that's not an answer for many guys. It cannot be the answer for me, as an autistic man who's not able to have a traditional career. Anything decently well-paid is generally out of my grasp, for a litany of reasons that come down to either socializing, capacity, unmatched interest level, etc. So I have to look for what else might work. If anyone replies, cynical answers ("in that case, pay for it") will not be read.

I don't think he needs to be congruent there. If he's open to that, sure, but if he's not... to me, it does not always mean hypocrisy by default. He should go for what he's attracted to, within reason. I've seen plenty of "fat" guys with more "classically attractive" types, myself. So it's not that unusual

While apparently none are opting for the skinny autistic guy who can't direct his own life, though. Not even for 5 minutes. Apparently if a guy is average looking or thin, it then becomes all about the status/money thing. Like a binary if-then statement. And that just brings me down. I don't get no respect!

I contend being thin even without muscles is "in shape" and should be treated as such. For 99% of human history at least, generally speaking, everyone was what would be called "thin" today.

You don't need good currency to get decent women, though. It's not "either good looks, or good currency" to have a chance in the game. As if you're average looking and have a crap job or no job, it must be over until you're on the way up in life? Is that how you think? It's just wrong, man.

Ridiculous. I'll say a guy may not need to be hot, but he has to be at least average looking for casual relations. But then that average looking guy also needs to have social skills, a career, full independence, etc. Put another way, the less attractive a guy is, the more he needs to compensate with social skills, money, and personal agency. The "very attractive guys" mostly won't be screened for anything else, not even game. Doesn't need anything else, just that he looks great. Game is probably…

As a bartender, I see a lot of “low value” men dating primo women. I'd like to agree with this, since it would be healthy to have some optimism for a change (I'm "super low value" and like to believe there's a chance), but I imagine what you're talking about is highly social extroverts, who maybe don't look great or have a great job. It's not like I can rely on my social skills to make up for what I lack in other (in fact, all) areas, since I'm autistic. My genetic fortune was shit, man. I wish …

This guy sounds like he may be on spectrum though. The "potential for good results with women" through intensive socializing and all the responsibilities it carries (to "always be on, know what to say, and how to say it") is too low to justify the effort. I cannot say for sure whether OP is on the spectrum, but I can say as a guy who is, this is 100% the case with me.

When I pitch the date I say I'm not looking for anything too serious, and that's how I screen. But the problem with that is, most lose interest instantly after you say that... and I tend to think it's a point of great discomfort for them... after all, everyone knows, it's all about getting a relationship for women.

Along with being legit attractive, along with a steady career and a social circle, is that what you meant there?

But what if you know you're low value, you contribute little or nothing to society, and you cannot really improve much because you're on the spectrum and lost your chance in life (inaction and avoidance.) it would seem in a case like this, every negative judgment from others (especially in the tougher context of rejection) is simply the truth.

Referencing the comment from further up where the guy says "check FDS subreddit to see what women require," I think it's a concern. Apparently, men have to be minimum 6 foot height and if past 30, at least 6 figures income, according to what they say? Why even bother...

Asking a specific person out, if that's what you mean, it can be difficult for both genders.

A lot older than you and just starting out, as well as profoundly scatterbrained and uninterested in the grand plan, I can state (hopefully without being judged) for me it's more about the moment. Take that as you will; it could be a very bad look for a guy at my age to not only be starting out, but to be honest that he does not exactly want a traditional relationship.

That's quite the low bar. Although low bars are good because they set you up for being blown away whereas high bars set you up for disappointment.

My work AND my school is grappling with the endless dark night of the soul... I have enough on my plate just from being here, since I'm autistic I need to put in massive amounts of effort just to keep the ball rolling, in the first place. If you're working and schooling full-time you're either a genius, or suffer…

Well you were a social guy in college, so it's like you were starting out with a silver-platter. The fact that you had that silver-platter and still had to put in reams of work to get anywhere, that's what scares the bejesus out of me. And I'm a lot older than you, I'm half as attractive as I was in my 20s now, still thin, not able to lift because of health conditions (chronic pain), I mean, where to start...

2 in 3 are perpetually taken. That other 1 in 3 has the kind of issues you're better off avoiding. Also, most only want laid if there's a "winner" they can invest in, in hopes they can get him to commit for a relationship. They don't want sex because of pure desire, it's a real pickle to deal with this fact, so basically for men there are 2 choices: there's "be a winner who looks like he could offer a relationship" or exist as dateless virgin for good. It's hardly worth trying if you're not gene…

I can hardly be convinced that women want laid, anymore. A lot of the perceptible evidence around this topic shows that most women that may have sex early, or even those who "hook-up," are more about framing it as a way to get investment from the guy, for a relationship. I'm saying they don't usually want to get laid the way guys do, instead the idea for them is to find a "high value" guy--status, money, etc.--and try to keep him around this way. For proof of this, you can literally read about t…

Hard to think positively if you're rejected or shown indifference dozens of times in a row, or flaked on 5 times in a row, or going many years without getting action, etc. The way you're framing this is good for the soul, but it doesn't work.

Sorry I took all this time to get back to you.

Even women open t…

So you have to still convey an energy that you're interested and open to meeting people in my opinion. But you don't need to have a good age-appropriate job, education, and so on.

The problem is quite universally, women do not want sex unless as a bargaining chip for a potential longterm relationship.

I certainly don't think it's complicated, overall. But it could be harder to justify "going through it" for me, because of a high propensity for shame and rejection sensitivity somewhat "off the charts."

How do you define your own success with approaching women in the past? I'm just curious what's behind your definition there. Do you mean "approaching went well" but actually there wasn't anything more to it besides the social interaction? Or do you mean it led to good time and/or some kind of relationship? just curious

Ten years to get a first date, to get a first sensual encounter, to your first "good relationship" or...? Spell it out a bit more. What autistic tendencies do you try to overcome? Have you considered that there's a popular saying in the autistic community, "willing but not able vs. able but not willing"?

They see a guy with no job, no muscle, bad social skills, no cash like a guy sees an ass, tits, personality and face. You are somewhat incorrect as these categories are mismatched. You're comparing status/behavior to looks, which is not exactly proper. In some ways it makes sense, in other ways, it's too reductive. The "no muscle" thing also would not matter to a woman who isn't particularly visual or just wants a guy to "look healthy"; as I understand "thin" is a barometer of health compared to…

No offense, but I don't see how this translates much to my plight. Women with autism deal with an entirely different set of rules than for autistic men regarding dating.

Being low status is a mindset, not a destination. It's not a mindset if there are objective reasons to be low-status. Often those factors cause the negative mindset you refer to, bro. So if a guy is not particularly good looking and does not compensate with social chutzpah nor career prospects, he will be seen as low-status, almost universally, on the dating/hook-up scene. What happens with guys like this is, there are no attractive women interested (this is kinda rough, but true...) full stop. …

Currently I can't even get the respect that a Burrito Engineer would have, and I'm a fully grown man. "Lesser-…

I think you can get decent women while being an autistic loser who can't do shit in life... and also, I definitely do not think this belief is out of touch. Such a guy is not offering social finesse or status symbols, but guys who lack social finesse, money, and status symbols can still get decent women. I'm saying I agree, I guess. The harsh truths hold sway much of the time, but not all of the time. There's quality women who like low-value guys, ironic as it may sound, and I stand by this beli…

Not to underplay your condition, but don't you have your priorities in the wrong place?

Autism leads to a fractured identity, so there is no way to find a self if that self is broken by default, you follow?

Are you the same guy who said "being attractive and being highly accomplished"--because you're "smart and in a doctoral program"--was the way for you to get with all these women? I mean you're just so full of BS with that, man. You said you were with "hundreds of women" and presumably because of your genetic gifts. You're aware your gifts, in that combination, are just lucky... given you merely won the roll of the dice? How many of us can have the gift of looks also with intellect? Very few, is …

Perfection can be overrated, sometimes it’s more attractive to be interesting and different. Interesting and different could be me, depending on how you look at it. I would say "different" can be good, but some kinds of "different" are undeniably bad, at least for the pursuit of women. Perhaps this may sound cold, but as an example, take a guy who's super-unattractive in the physical sense. The word "different" would apply to such a man, and perhaps such a guy would make for an interesting figur…

Thanks for replying, and glad to see you back! Some people just want someone in their corner when they take on the world. Could I ask, then, what would generally be sought from a guy who's in their corner when they "take on the world"? Although maybe it would help if you would qualify the kind of arrangement you're speaking of; it seems you're talking more about a more serious relationship, if i'm not wrong

Yeah man, that's how I see it. But I think Thots would still be hard for me to get, because I'm on the spectrum. On the other hand, they're usually not the kind of woman to look at the guy's wallet-size or job, and judge mostly on that, so I might have a chance (I'm certainly not a "breadwinner" you see.) If I wanted to seek Thots anyway--despite still having low odds--where would I look for them? Again, I don't want to be "thotless"...

You don't need money, status, and social circles to get decent women, though. Can't a guy be an autistic loser and still do well with chicks--let's say "average" women then--right?

I honestly believed (until now, I guess?) Thots were not particularly shallow... I've had one guy describe them as, "They're in it for the love of the game." Which means they're alert to the game and if you play it well (by having some Game) you don't need the money/status stuff. You seem to equate the thot with gold-diggers; but my understanding is that's not who they are.

Have you had that sensation when you're around women or even just in social situations, it's like you're seen as "lesser" or "weak" or something?

If you've been approached you must be following rules 1 and 2, then Not all of us can. I'm just 5'9" and average, can't really get buff, don't have the underlying structure for it.

Some not-hot guys cannot compensate by getting buff, if they don't have the innate physical structure for it. Take me for instance, 5'9", thin-build, can't get buff, I even have the thin wrists. Would it be impossible for a guy like that to have casual, then?

Just don't base your worth on perceived career status (good OR bad) or other things external to yourself. Appreciate yourself without conditions dependent on what others, or "society", may think. As I said before, it seems your self-worth is completely tied to your perception of what society values in a man. This is a "flimsy front." Think of it like this, if you lost your job or had a low-wage one, would you dislike yourself much more than you do now? Seems like you would. This is the problem y…

If you can get something at any time, from any guy you want (mostly Shad, since there's no reason to choose anyone "lesser") it would be hard to call that a "need." So you could say the real need women have is for quality longterm relationships, that's where they have scarcity. But to have sex, without the premise of a relationship? No scarcity, it's the opposite. All they have to do is find a high quality guy on a dating app or whatever, and that's all. Half the time I'm talking to a woman on h…

You mean well, but I'm afraid it would be very hard to utilize much from the examples you provide. The core issue I've got going is mild autism with ADD.

A real man who isn't like that naturally, wouldn't need to change to fit someone else's vision of what a 'real man who attracts women' is. A "real man" is someone who is secure in how he is.

Confidence not strictly based on career, money, and status is what you should aim for. Somehow learn to separate societal value from actual value. Perhaps you believe your "societal value" is good or getting better, but are you using that to discern your actual value? Sounds like you are to me. It doesn't translate as well as we'd like. What I'm saying is you lack true confidence. That's probably why you're not successful with women thus far.

Well at least a guy 30+ will need a damn good job or high social status at least, otherwise he won't have access to decent women, just how it works man. Women can throw a rock and find guys with those things, they have no reason to accept one with anything less. Younger chicks may make exceptions, but that privilege does not extend to 30+ men.

What's a waste of time is not chasing them and losing any opportunity, assuming given deficits have a high likelihood of being there in the future.

You say a lack of understanding. But does this comment right here, show lack of understanding: The dating ‘marketplace’ is full of men who want sex, and a lower number of women who want sex and who tend to think 90% of said men are unattractive. This isn’t an opinion; it’s a statistical reality. It’s not equal and simple. You need to have very high value or some kind of vigorous strategy... If you propose sex with even someone you get along with, there is a very high chance that they will not on…

Just out of curiosity, what do you think of this: The dating ‘marketplace’ is full of men who want sex, and a lower number of women who want sex and who tend to think 90% of said men are unattractive. This isn’t an opinion; it’s a statistical reality. It’s not equal and simple. It’s not like wanting to play a sport, and then just stumbling upon leagues of other people who like playing that sport. You need to have very high value or some kind of vigorous strategy. You can’t just walk around askin…

The most interesting thing here is that you're first point is 100% right. It is more about actual spoken language. Everyone likes to say autism is a disorder of "the wrong body language" or "missing body language signals in the other person." I say that's half-bollocks. Autism is more and more being seen as a deficit in language. It's a deficit in listening to others (auditory processing delays), a deficit in interpreting (difficulty with pragmatics), even a deficit in reading comprehension. Ver…

Aspergers or Autism. They seemingly do all the right things: high paying career, What if you're an autistic guy who can't have a high-paying career, is it over then? Dude don't speak about things you don't know about. Many if not most autistic guys are either in shit jobs or have no job. Don't be taking away our hopes, mate.

What a thorough reply. And you make things very clear this time--so, props. Social wits are mandatory. It's simply unavoidable, even introverts need to be able to recognize social cues despite not partaking. Define social wits, then. I don't need a novel, but just what the concept means to you. Did you have to learn or was it more inherent, for you? Presently yes you have zero ability to attract them but you need to start to do the work to do it. However you have a inner monologue that tells you…

I mean more like this story, about a kid who was so upset that girls didn't like him and blamed it all on them that it took him to an extreme where he ended up killing people. Granted, these are really extreme cases but if you're not mentally in a good place then remaining in victim mode can lead you somewhere dark. Yes, I knew you were going to link to that infamous story. Maybe this is a tangent, but every time this is brought up, I like to say: "But what could he have done better, to find wom…

Well you give a very thorough reply but it is undercut somewhat by what you said below in this thread, that you're tall and good-looking. Such things will allow you to "get women" anyway even as you admit it's not a common/easy thing. I'm 5'9" in height, naturally thin-boned (I cannot make my arms look manly, no matter what, in other words), and average-looking.

Interesting. I checked your profile if you don't mind. You seem to post in Schizoid (which is similar to Asperger's in some ways, and may be comorbid in some cases.) And of course you say here you have mild Asperger's also. May I ask, what--to you--is classic Schizoid behavior regarding the pursuit of social and/or romantic encounter?

Victim mentality is dangerous mainly because you stop taking responsibility for your life and focus too much on external things that are affecting you. In that case I've had this to a "significant degree" for well over 10 years. I think it's done so much damage, that the inaction and lack of responsibility added up and now I'm permanently screwed; will probably be virgin for life.

Are you honest and forthright on this? That said, I do believe personality is very important... but I'm lacking in it, and a lot of that comes from the social deficiency. I'm painfully shy, introverted, as well as self-loathing and insecure.

Don't know about that, brother. You may mean well. But look at what the women in r/dating or r/relationships say about what they need to be attracted, and come back to me. Or read even some of the less extreme posts in r/femaledatingstrategy and come back to me. And then tell me I don't need to be a normal guy climbing the career and social ladder on par with the rest in my age group, to have any chance. You won't be able to do so, with a straight face, methinks.

They were smart, funny and confident. Obviously no one here is saying great credentials, great jobs, and money/status don't work in the absence of looks. If you told me one of these guys lacked a college degree and/or lacked a "mature grown-up job", and wasn't socially smooth, then I'll perk up. I have autism and have virtually none of these advantages, you see.

Confidence is key in my experience. Not sure if "confidence" is even his trick; if his confidence was formed on being an attractive tall guy that a model says "you're hot" to his face, it's not necessarily actionable confidence then. This guy is unaware of his own advantage. If he has confidence because he's tall and attractive, it's not a perk that someone without those advantages can have. I'd want to listen to an average-looking guy who's autistic or something and gained confidence. Now THAT …

But you have all these guys here pointing out how you are--according to what you yourself said, both tall (6'0") and good-looking.

How the heck could ADHD ever be an advantage in this game? The overlap with autistic spectrum disorder, in all ways (both rates of co-occurence, and symptoms themselves) is so marked that if you look at ADHD communities you find the whole "incel" thing is nearly as bad as it is in autistic communities. ADHD robs the capacity to focus and execute tasks, it distorts the sense of life priority (ADHD wants the moment, it hates plans and long steps/progression), it typically even impairs social skill…

But everyone tells me woman gets attention all day and night from men, so why would the "top 10% or bust" thing be incorrect?

So, that's why you have to be top 10% in one of those categories. I don't see the silver-lining you offer.

Height shouldn't be a deal breaker unless you're a legal dwarf. Most women demand 6 foot, though. Now I'm 5'9" which is not horrible, but it's not good enough, especially not on dating sites. So it's already a massive uphill battle based on that one factor alone. I mean if you're a guy below 6 foot on any dating site, don't bother unless you can make up for it with a great/well-paid job... which I cannot. So I guess online won't work for me.

WHILE the only thing a man can say to get interest online is list a prestigious degree, a "well-paid" or "dangerous/exciting" job, or 6 foot tall+. The question of looks is obviously an important one, BUT please consider I'm more talking about Reddit or non-picture formats so in this case, (initially) it really IS more about what you write down. On Tinder and "officia…

You're either sarcastic or missed the context cues. Whatever the case it's rather annoying to see that here, in a place catering to a significant portion of men who can't get any matches at all, or replies, or anything. I guess I'm humorless, but you ought to take the time to ask an average/typical guy what this is really like, before you make such comments... You make it sound like an entitlement.

(primarily, being successful), Autism also carries many components of learning disabilities, and if you get a certain combination of that (which I did) it will prevent you from having any kind of success. I had difficulty in a crappy college that anyone could attend, for example. I'm not college material, not social material, not "practical skills" material or anything else. I have no prospects and can't do shit. So I guess it is over, especially at my advanced age.

To answer your question directly, it's not so hard for an introverted/autistic guy to "get laid." Seems like the most common answer given to autistic guys is one of these: "pay for it, travel to Southeast Asia, go to kink clubs" and so on. The implication is quite troubling to me, it's as if basically no one wants these guys outside of a few fringe parameters, yet no one says it outright. I want to know why when a so-called "normal" guy asks what can be done, those answers aren't given? Riddle m…

For me, the worst aspect of dating while autistic Actually the worst part is those two things don't go together at all. It's not possible. (Or perhaps, maybe it's the best thing about it?

Working on my art during those 3 years--even if I don't really get paid--surely counts for something, though? And besides, it's mind over matter.

Your statement is nonsense because the saturation rate online is far greater than what it was 10 years ago, for instance. The bar for men has risen drastically. The conclusion you reach from that is simple, if you're a man, you have to "Be Shad." That's it. If you're "Not Shad" = online is punishing and destructive for ego and well-being, not worth it. It's that simple. If that worked for you, you must be "high quality" anyway, so the advice will not be applicable for most. "Shad" being shorthan…

That's foolish, making assumptions like that. There's a 5-letter word for that kind of thinking. And besides, if a woman is 5'0" to 5'2", a guy at 5'9" is more than tall enough for her. Think a little bit, alright?

That's not true. And it's not even true the conventional knowledge of "most women having infinite options" while only very few men relatively have the same level of choice, etc. All of that is false.

What is not shown in porn and is the center piece of sex, is the connection between two human beings. During sex, you're deeply yourself. It's the connection, when it happens, that is beautiful.
