    >Looking for something long term

    >Uses the term thots

    Sounds like he’s accidentally helping a lot of those women to dodge that bullet

    What’s this thing recently about using ‘im too autistic too…’ or 'because of my autism '?

    It feels like people are using this like we’ve used ‘removed’ in the past.

    Kinda sucks.

      There’s a trend of blaming all mistakes on autism. It’s kind of like a nothing is my fault type thing. People I know with autism definitely do it sometimes but I get the feeling many people who don’t have it do it as well.

      My son went through a similar phase recently where he decided he believed in God but he only used it to blame everything on God.

      So he’d trip up and say “Thanks God!”.

    Basically, that might be quite a good strategy to meet less superficial partners. And it might be a funny story to break the ice in the beginning.

    In NY state and I assume others, there are new laws that protect consumers from dating app bullshit billing. I don’t know a ton on it but I did enough research tonknow they must offer you a full refund for requests made in like 48hrs from signing up. Tried it with either e-harmony or plenty of fish and it worked like a champ. Was able to use app for full day trying out all the shit and seeing who was on there. Requested the refund the next day and got it no questions asked.

    You’re spot on, but it’s not “the people” it’s just the incels on 4Chan. Same with “thots”. No one says that in real life, it just internet brainrot.
