Depending on how you define it, me. I've never felt good enough to be in a relationship and I've deeply internalized the idea of 'don't bother them if they wanted to talk to you they would'
Being autistic, I feel this so hard.
CW: Ableism
For all of my life, society - including many "left" spaces - has drilled into my head that I am repulsive, I am undesirable, I am an inferior class of human being whose very existence is an imposition on those around me.It is, to put it lightly, not a recipe for confidence in approaching women.
It seems like how an autistic person is perceived depends on their looks. Attractive and autistic makes people see you as charmingly quirky. Average or unattractive and autistic makes people see you as creepy and undesirable
This is where I can agree. Even if you're a fairly good looking chapo. Autism looks like it can make dating super hard.
There's unfortunately something that the average person just finds off-putting about it.
