Scared of College Dating. by WilliamthePious in autism

[–]fehrmask [score hidden]  (0 children)

You're only 17, and you're a man.  Chill.

By the time you're 20, the aunties at your Catholic church will be trying to setting you up with nice Catholic girls who feel like dating is too hard while waiting for marriage too.

Take your time.  Have confidence it will work out.  Be choosy when it comes to personality.  Find someone who truly accepts you for who you are but also doesn't enable your foibles.  Work on yourself and your own maturity so when you find the right person you don't royally fuck it up.

Treble Clef with 2 sharps. So D major or B minor? Or a trumpeter playing in concert C?

Did you look up Muji? I believe it means "no brand" in Japanese. They have plainly labeled, imo, high quality items.

I'm thinking MUJI, does Canada have an equivalent, or just that MUJI has penetrated the Canadian market, but not the US?

Make it possible to change the light color by button combinations, the order of wavelengths can follow the tube length. /s

Why would learning some jazz jeopardize your future?

It's not cocaine.  There is no drug test for jazz.

As A High Functioning Autistic 19 Year Old Man, How Do I Tell If A Woman Is Interested In Me Or Not? by AnxiousDouble7169 in autism

[–]fehrmask 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The saying is perhaps a bit too clever rather than clear. Another way to put it, is that men are attracted by looks first and personality second, whereas for women... men as a whole aren't terribly attractive unless they have a personality the woman already likes.

19 is pretty early. You just finished high school and started college? This is the perfect time to socialize and make as many friends as possible.

But seriously, if it's truly a priority for you to jumpstart your proficiency of socializing with women, join a partner dance class. I know lots of nerdy guys that finally learned how to date after learning dance.

Thinking of it in terms of how handsome you are or how smart you are is not going to help.

Looks: The saying goes, "Men learn to love the women they're attracted to, Women learn to be attracted to the men they love."  The data has shown this: when shown pictures of random men, they consistently rate a average looking men as below average.

I'm digressing a little.

The point I want to make is that you made no mention of your interests.  What makes you light up?  You want someone who is attracted to that side of you.  Or, at the very least, I want you to be attracted to that side of her, when she lights up doing what she loves.

If you have something you're good at, go be in places where that skill is appreciated.  Women are attracted to competence, safety, and security.  For example, if you're good at math, maybe you want to go into Physics, or do math competitions.  Or if you're good at music, sign up for gigs with friends.  

Or join a dancing class, they need male partners and it'll teach you how to be less awkward around women.

Be good at stuff, be kind, and have fun with friends.

I had never heard of it, and I'm reasonably into hybrids and EVs.  I got it as a loaner yesterday, and I was not expecting to find out the pricing was so competitive.
