I’m barely in my twenties but as an autistic woman im giving up. I didn’t date at all in high school despite having a few crushes. In uni I’ve had multiple dates, tried online dating, had my friend set me up.

My last situationship ended horribly cause the guy was shit at texting despite lovebombing me in person. I struggle to read people’s intention, especially men, and especially men in romantic situations. It feels like no guy im seeing actually wants me because they reply slowly, some of them cancel or postpone our dates.

I don’t believe there’s some idealised or perfect romance waiting for me but it would be nice to be wanted for once. I’m giving up, i understand why I didn’t date in high school because it’s a huge waste of time!!
