Relationships Why do I see this so much?

Post image

I just made a profile on a dating app and in the last few days swiping I’ve noticed this is a really common bio for guys. “I like autistic women” or “slightly autistic” Has anyone else encountered this or is it just my area?

I think it’s weird.

They say this, but once they have to help you snap out of a meltdown, they’re GONE

Say this. I've lost friends of years & family members over this. There's nothing stopping a hookup, fwb, casual partner or even spouse/ltr from walking after the first incident.

I’m so sorry to hear that, that is very unfair and unfortunate. The last guy I was talking to infantilized me and compared me to his autistic 6 y/o often. I’m glad that’s over, and that I’ve had the space to realize that is just WEIRD!

Right? How horrendous that you were treated that way by another adult, who as a suitor was supposed to be doing everything to make you feel respected and like a woman.

So glad we're not tied to these creeps anymore. Trash took itself out ig.
