But maybe they have single friends? And if they get a good impression of you, maybe you'll met someone through them. It happens, it's not unheard of.

When people in general try being friendly toward you, @Tony Ramirez you reject them unless
they are somebody eligible for you to marry. I don't really get why that is.

I mean no one wants pity friends.

No guarantee that the married people are being friendly out of pity.

my uncle is definitely on the spectrum. My grandparents and his brothers (my dad included) used to joke that they have to knit one for him because he had passed 40, still no relationship and he was the only one of the siblings not married.

Then He joined a group and became friends with a variety of people, most of the already married. One of the couples he met invited him on holiday to Romania as they were from there. They then introduced him to my aunt and they’ve been married for 20 years Since. So, it can happen, don’t close yourself off from people.

Is that supposed to be an answer for why you reject people, based on their relationship status ?
That's highly illogical.

*Hey, there's some people acting friendly toward me. augh I am lonely and single. No way I'll pal around with them.*

They just make me feel like they succeeded and I am a failure.

You tell yourself that. And that's how you feel.

I think you're right. But it's hard to think differently after feeling rejected my entire life.
