I dont really like that I really wish it was me, damn I really need to meet people

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

go out and try. just earlier today I said the stupidest oneliner in person and got a response.

you miss a 100% of the shots you don't take - Wayne Gretzky or somebody

then I spoke to someone on a busy commuter train, and learned something new. a view I had never considered before.

I know it's hard,as someone who has personally suffered from exclusion and depression before.

but worst they can do is ignore you or spit in your face.

That's all very true but I do like a girl right now, she lives on another continent though

[–] [email protected] 26 points 1 day ago

Yeah thats an autistic goth woman. They're magnificent

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago

That's a similar experience to how I met my partner. We never really talked about it, she was just there now.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago

??? Never left??? Please go on

[–] [email protected] 69 points 2 days ago (2 children)

This is my dating strategy, just exist and hope one day some alt girl just decides were dating now.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago

As much as I don't want to go back into the office I must admit I never meet people anymore. I don't know how I would meet anyone new if I ever needed to.

My partner is literally the girl that I sat next to in the office seating plan 10 years ago.

[–] [email protected] 29 points 2 days ago

Yes, I am indeed this introverted

[–] [email protected] 136 points 2 days ago (3 children)

I'm not entirely sure what this says about me, but this is exactly what I want out of life.

[–] [email protected] 121 points 2 days ago (6 children)

If you meet a vaguely autistic hottie who is into you, under no circumstances fumble. I don't usually feel qualified to take my unsolicited life advice that seriously, but I mean it this time.

Sorry to hear about your small head.

[–] [email protected] 39 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Yes, BUT I unfortunately can't stand the cigarette stench.

Definitely Fae if she lives on black licorice, that thing is absolutely not meant for humans

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Shit, in the netherlands we basically live off of that stuff. The per capita consumption is two kilograms, which puts ut at the tol of the list of global consumption.

Every supermarket pretty much has an aisle dedicated to licorice in all forms. Sweet, salty, spicy, soft, hard, dipped in chocolate… you name it.

I’m amazed some people don’t like it. Though I’ll concede I’ve obviously grown up eating it since before I could talk.

So... how hard is it to visit these legendary isles, I mean... country...?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Licorice is wonderful. When I was a little kid, half the reason Halloween was my favorite holiday was because there were packs of only orange and black jellybeans, the only good flavors.

Panda licorice now, it's amazing. At our airport there is an all licorice vending machine, all different kinds but of course since it's in an airport it's expensive.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

I know there's like a billion jellybean flavors but if the orange one you speak of is also orange fruit flavor, it ranks low on my list. Unlike licorice though, it's edible.

Salmiak is life.

Black licorice is S tier, especially the good and plenty variety

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

S tier

Only if it's salmiakki

I’m all about the Australian soft kind myself

[–] [email protected] 22 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Sure... I'm proud of my comment, I'm now making a list of all the Fae users of Lemmy. You guys can't trick me now!

Avoids sunlight, literal-minded, and hisses at strange women?

I'm not trying to be mean, but she's probably on the autism spectrum. My girlfriend has it and this is her to a T.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 day ago

There's nothing saying being Fae and autistic are mutually exclusive conditions

I have zero game and no clue when it comes to signals.

I need this kind of woman, one that will be forward me.

[–] [email protected] 117 points 2 days ago (24 children)

"Game" doesn't exist. Clean yourself, be respectful of others, talk to people. That's the entire game.
You just lost the game btw, but that's to another point

The game ended years ago: https://xkcd.com/391/

You won. Congratulations.

Game exists, its a skill though and you can learn it by trying. Just requires the courage to try, fail, and try again. That said its really just charisma, and you can learn it by learning to non-flirtatiously chat people up.

Same energy as an unhoused cat choosing its new home.

This is my dream girl.

Of course I'm not a Chad with a huge melon.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago

Damn 5heads, taking up all the possible fae.

This is my partner, minus the goth (her thing was hip-hop).

I wonder just how many times people on the spectrum were looked at as "Fae".

[–] [email protected] 24 points 2 days ago

I've definitely seen claims that the idea of "a far stole my baby and replaced it with a changeling" could have been caused by ASD.

Direct and to the point. Not many can boast to be this good at communication.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 days ago

Can we collectively applaud this? Because I think it deserves it.
