How to successfully date if I have autism, not funny, and have an overly logical and formal way of speaking?

Have you tried dating other autistic people? Or friends you might be attracted to? It seems logical since they would either be familiar with how you’re like or they would understand your awkwardness.

You could find women who have this in common with you. Doubtless they, too, have issues dating.

People aren’t naturally funny, charismatic, or charming. They were born into an environment that let them grow those traits. You can still become a funny person, it just takes practice.

With that said, there are also women out there like you or who are attracted to men like you. Yes, there are less of them. Especially in the online dating world where 90% of men are straight forward, charming, and funny. Women attracted to traits like yours tend to avoid online dating. It’s all about putting yourself out there and not being afraid to get rejected in person.

I deleted my advice upon reading your profile, OP.

Being rather conservative politically, you're only going to be compatible with conservative women, who are: much rarer, far more likely to expect a potential match to live up to expected gender roles, and much more likely to be prejudice against autistic people.

That basically negates all of my advice. I'm not telling you to change politically. It would be a very strange motivation to change your politics.

Still, the combination of your traits and mental health with your particular ideology in the modern dating world seems rather impossible to me. Finding a woman who is fine with your lack of "masculine charm," doesn't think less of you for openly admitting to a mental health "problem," but also isn't put off by your conservative politics is going to be an epic challenge.

Sorry for your luck, buddy.

Look for social groups for people with ASD. That can be a good way to meet someone similar to you, who’ll get you when you are being yourself.

Date someone just like you.

You need an acid trip
