Oh yeah I don't even look for people to date, I can't really be with someone that doesn't know me well. It's just the American suburbs are possibly one of the worst places for social interaction in general, there's not very much of a way to meet people that's not, like, harassing them while they're trying to get groceries lmao (which is an obvious no).

Tangentially, why I want to live in a less car-centric area, I'm an introvert but damn it's very isolating when everyone's either at their house or in cars except when they're busy. Too much asphalt and no sidewalks/bike roads/public transit and no city center or streets to be able to interact with anyone.

Also most typical people in my experience just don't like it when those with mainly neurodevelopmental disorders are themselves... this is a shared experience with basically all of my ADHD friends, other people feel irritated or awkward when you don't actively attempt to cover up ADHD (of course, in my experience).

Thanks!

What if you can't get dates because you because you're not attractive... and have severe ADHD or Autism or Dyspraxia, and anxiety disorders so it's hard to make friends in the first place because of RSD, much less long-term partners

asking for a friend btw
