I went to bed early but just couldn't fall asleep, and when I'm really tired I do very stupid things that I'd never do when I'm not sleepy.

I wonder if I can find anyone, I wonder if I even want to find anyone. I have wanted to leave this planet for so long, I don't know if anyone or anything could keep me here.

I guess I'll see if I can even get a single match or if any of the matches even lead to anything. It would be nice to get more friends. I don't know if I'd like to date anyone.

The idea of finding a friend first has a lot of merit. If you consider what you know about yourself and what you know about others, one can easily see a lot of people that would not be a good fit.

However, if your a dating site that has a wide range of people, you might find others seeking friendship first rather than just casual fornication partners.

If you can find someone else who also has a friendship first interest, you might find someone who is capable of building something deeper and lasting.

I kind of feel sorry for those that are really attractive. They have a hard time sifting through people to see who really might have depth. Being ugly, I had the advantage of knowing my wife had the ability and compassion to see past the superficial.

Online dating for men is a lost cause if you are not in the top 10% of looks.

Can work for ok-looking neurotypicals with jobs and social lives, I hear.

I really would like to be friends first. I have never dated and don't even know if I'd like to date, but I have had friends and know that I'd like more. True, good advice!

The app I downloaded isn't a big one, but there seemed to be all kinds of people there. I haven't yet talked with anyone, but I read their profiles.

Very true. I'll keep that in mind.

True. I'd rather have someone who liked my personality. For example, I love dogs and if the other person hated dogs, even if they were Brad Pitt or Britney Spears I couldn't date them. And I want someone whom I can trust and who respects my boundaries and is kind. And a matching sense of humor. And hobbies. It's good that you have a good wife! Too many people run after looks, never considering that looks fade but heart remains.

Thanks for the tips! I appreciate them!

I've heard similar stories yes. I don't actually know what I am looks wise. I'm not the best looking but not the worst looking I think, though I wish I had a smaller nose and none of those "cheek sacks", those fucking cheek sacks make me look ten times older and fatter than I am. Yet I can't do anything about them because it's the fault of my face bones. I wish I could get rid of my insomnia so it wouldn't make me look so tired and unwashed.

I've heard it too. My cousin went from a chad-lite to a high tier normie after norwooder attacked, yet he can still find girls to bang easily. His social, though he was really poor and jobless for a long time.

People always tell me that they wouldn't have ever guessed that I have asperger and often they don't even believe that I have asperger, because I'm so kind, polite, considerate, empathic, emotionally intelligent, etc. according to them (which is infuriating, because I've met lots of great and kind and polite aspergers). I literally almost lost a friend when I told her that I have asperger and she refused to believe it, because I'm "too good of a person to have asperger". Brutal aspiepill. :(

I don't have a job, but now during these corolla times, many are jobless, so maybe it's not that big of a deal. Though I will be embarrassed to admit to them that I'm on a disability leave.

On another note, I took several photos of myself and they were all rejected for some reason, even though they were of high quality, and you could clearly see my full face. And I can't take a new photo because my insomnia has made me look like a zombie. Now I won't get any matches just because it won't approve any of my photos. Stupid.

looks fade but heart remains.
Heart doesn't always remain, hence why all of these women are getting physically/emotionally/sexually abused "out of the blue"(?) after some time into a relationship. Problem might be that we do relationships too fast, no one waits until they've spent five years with someone to start having sex. Imo, the culture is way too fast-paced for our own good.

Serial monogamy is also far from optimal. Better might be a culture where it's commonplace to spend a lot of time one-on-one with several potential partners and to only start having sex after one person clearly stands out as being more compatible over the course of a few years. Jumping in the sack will bond people with each other emotionally, and may cloud judgement. After one or two breakups I'm guessing the ability to pair-bond without the (extra) hormonal intervention is reduces to ashes. No one is special anymore.

What is it called? A malfunctioning personality detector? Agreed. But I'm pretty asexual so I don't even want sex, but I do want snuggles and hugs and neck kisses and romantic dinners in the bed.

It actually took me five minutes to get a person whose profile said that they were a polyamorous (I swiped left because she was one of those crazy citypeople who want to ban cars from Laplanders, because owning a car in Lapland where the nearest shop is 50 km away is totally the same thing as owning a car in Tokyo). I have always said that one government for citypeople and another for countrypeople. Stupid that a person who has never left New York should tell people how to live in Alaska.

Thanks for the advice! I'll see how it goes, if it even goes.

My tried n tested experience :: hard life /love lessons ::
Try be honest, open-minded and willing.
Vulnerability and straight-forwardness are also great traits... to look for in others and have 4 yrself.
I throw caution to the wind and get candid and vunerable, it hasn't let me down, even tough lessons hav been worthwhile.
Looking for love / something meaningful means u believe u are able & worthy of such things... but being open to others may mean realistic expectations...
Be patient and kind, and pay attention to social cues....
Good luck.

Not everyone's gna get u / yr stuff.
Share things with confidence and caution.

(Never invite them back to your place unsober to show them the bodies in the freezer - no matter how much they like csi!!
It may not be the best pretence to get em back 2yr place 2get laid)

You are right. I need to remember that it doesn't mean that I'm bad if someone doesn't like me, it just means we are different. Or maybe they chickened out.

I will certainly never invite anyone here! I hate having visitors, unless I know them really well. I was friends for years with my ex-friend yet he only visited me once despite living 5 minutes away from me, because I just don't like having visitors. Hahaha! My cannibalism would be revealed.

What is this? You were raised differently than this...? - im sensing...is that shame in your tone? Won't have anyone over etc etc... hmm. Listen kids :: those old romantic movies were beautiful. But a complete lie :: no romantic on the beach silhouettes in the sunset true love ending. Nah. Not anymore. Today is social media (love it or hate it just don't fkn leave it!) Learn to use it - there are no parents or matchmakers etc to find you someone worthy. So you gotta do it yrself. Let Grandpa Trigger share some well earned (criminal record) life lessons: you gotta risk, I mean share stuff that moves you. That will make sum1 want to know why you care the way you do. Yeah there are haters n idiots but u know they nuthin more than impotent fear mongers. I'm 50 and fucking fierce. I take no prisoners and I'm advertising educated know my target market baby rough n ready - to mostly be misunderstood (so be willing to explain yrsrlf/ yr views etc :: maybe only to be manhandled by neanderthals... but maybe there's someone who also digs yr fetishes and freakouts) I met the guy who blows my mind and I'm madly into on fkg Facebook. -Not even grindr! (Grindr just got me 3somes; tied up 2many times :: Way Dissapointed :: and a bit used - but that's what I expected)
Though with my whoring history and dependence (know how many years I stayed single cos I believed i wasnt worth it? Way too many. he kinda already knew me from my exhibitons (reputations suck) but was afraid to talk to me. He's not exactly my type (long hair and tattoos r passé :: but remember my open minded remark?) He surprised cynical me :: incredible humor and taste in music. And so much more! So I sent him a cockshot for his bravery (hey. There's method to my madness I have a prince Albert - maybe he doesn't appreciate getting his fillings knocked out! Turns out he does! True fkg love. Years n years in the making. So be willing and grateful. I know you are. You're on ss..
Know this is your time.
As fucked up as you are.
You are fucking perfect.
I believe in you.and clean undies.
When will you believe??

Unfortunately, this is so true....
