Basically I’m autistic and I’m trying to find that special woman (I’m also a woman just fyi)
I’m 26 and just had my second ever date. The first girl I went on a date with I liked but she said we should meet up again and to send my number on tinder but she then never contacted me again. The date today she was nice but not really my thing.
Both times were a bit awkward, I end up saying the wrong thing or don’t have enough chat and there’s awkward silences. I just don’t know how to get across the essence of me in an hour. I’m just not great at chat.
I don’t necessarily want to go with someone also autistic but maybe if we both knew we were autistic or the other person knows I’m autistic then it might be easier. The dating agencies on the undateables look good but none of them are based where I am in north east Scotland.
I just need some help.
