Love: Today, during my first date with a girl I've liked for awhile,...

Today, during my first date with a girl I've liked for awhile, she tells me about some minor disabilities she was born with. Wanting to be honest with her too, I tell her I'm slightly autistic. Her response was, "I'm sorry this isn't going to work. I can't date a retard." I had to eat alone after that. FML

Today, a girl I'd been crushing on for a little while and I were talking about autism. Some of the last words she said were "I try to not find autistic people so fucking annoying, but I can't help it. But can you blame me?” I'm autistic. FML

Today, I was going on a blind date with a girl. She walked up to the table, said "Nah, no thanks" and left. FML

Today, I was trying to make a good impression with my fiancé's friends. After a few hours, I thought all was going well. As I walked to the washroom, I heard, "So what disability does she have? No one can be like that without something wrong in their brain." FML

Today, I was chatting with the girl of my dreams, a real heart-to-heart. Everything was going great, and I asked her if she'd like to get coffee together sometime. She immediately backed away and excused herself, mumbling something about not dating left-handed people. Huh? FML

Today, I was on my first date with my crush. When I saw her, I greeted her with, "Hey, sweetheart." She's convinced I said, "Hey, retard." FML

Today, I went on a blind date. The girl seemed perfect for me, until I found out she says "lol" and "rofl" out loud whenever she laughs. She also believes sex screws with people's "spiritual energy", and that's why she'll never have it. FML

Today, I was talking to a guy I met on a dating site, and he asked if we could meet up and what we should do. When I suggested ice-skating he told me he was in a wheelchair, so I said we could go for a walk instead. I realised my mistake the moment I sent the message. FML

Today, I went on a date with a beautiful woman I had recently met. Great food, great conversation, and a great connection. That is, until she revealed that she is a lesbian. FML

Today, after dating this girl for 3 months, I finally introduced her to my friends. She looked panicked during the date, and after it she broke up with me. When I asked why, she told me she could try to deal with a black friend, but not with a gay one. I've been dating a moron all this time. FML

Today, my boyfriend came over to meet my family. When I told him I had an autistic brother before he came in, he immediately broke up with me because he claimed autism is another word for overprotective. I've been dating an idiot. FML

Forget that slag! Like many here, I too have pretty severe Aspbergers. I'm kind of like David Helfgott in "Shine," Musical as hell, but can't talk with people worth a damn. TMI constantly flying through my mind & not enough verbage to get it out coherently. When people tease me about it, I don't get upset, I actually pity them. They have no idea how their ignorance makes them appear so silly & stupid to everyone. As far as Women go? Fish in the sea, m'laddo! You'll find a caring & compassionate soul out there somewhere, sometime, somehow, someway, someday...

Nope, 89 and 112; 71 is right. There is an Autism spectrum, yes - but you're either on the spectrum or not. Saying that you are "slightly" autistic is incorrect. We all understand, but the correct way to say that is to say you have autism and are high functioning.

**** that bitch! There is a monumental difference between Autism and mental "retardation" (which even people with Down's Sydrome aren't technically "retarded", their brains are connected differently than an average human being's). In fact, most people with Autism are far more intelligent than the average person.
