I'm genuinely really struggling to find a partner.
I feel like I'm going insane.
I want to be able to date women, but I'm completely useless...
I'm a very traditional person (not religious). I want marriage, kids, the whole works - but finding someone who I get along with is near impossible.
I work two jobs, I'm always physically active and I'm still fairly young (22).
My biggest barrier is that I very rarely change my facial expression regardless of how I feel and I'm completely unable to pick up on social "signals". Body language and facial expressions from a partner are super hard for me to read and I prefer someone just be honest with me and tell me how they're feeling, rather than making me guess.
I'm usually very quiet and reserved but I'm well spoken, polite and I try to be as friendly as possible.
I feel like it's an impossibility for me to find someone... I know I have to wait and be patient, but I've been single for ages and I'm starting to wonder if I'll ever find another person to be with, who wants to be intimate with me and enjoy what time we have together going places, exploring new things and just having fun...
I have literally no self confidence of esteem because I've let my label of autism get to me and define me and I never had involved or supportive parents when I was younger, so I've never had a role model I can look up to, so I can learn what to do and how to do it.
If any of you have any tips, tricks, guides, or are perhaps interested yourselves in getting to know me, feel free to reach out. I'd love to get an idea of where I'm going wrong and how I can improve.
Thanks for reading.
