It's more a matter of not being able to handle everyday tasks.

For instance, if I had to meet someone in the city for a date.  Public transport timetables, locations, it's all just overwhelming and confusing. Not to mention I have high anxiety almost all the time, so being in crowds or in unfamiliar places make me incredibly nervous.

Being my partner would be like dating a child, as I need to be guided through so many things normal people can do without thinking. Nobody would want to deal with that when there are plenty of fully functional men to go around.

And I wasn't speaking figuratively, I have actually been diagnosed of having the mental age of a 10 year old in terms of problem solving and reading social cues.

Hmmm... I still think you have chances if you're straight forward about your issue. Blind people get girls, obese people get girls, etc. Guys with issues can find a girl that can see beyond these issues, IMO. As long as you make clear from the beginning what your issue is, of course. Just say it and explain it first thing, people will accept you as you are as long as you show them you accept yourself as you are, it's just psychological. If you have problems reading social cues perhaps she'll take all the steps.

I don't know, I just think being negative is precisely the worst thing you can do to get a girl. Cheer up, be confident. Within your limits, because of your mental age thing, fine. But at least don't tell yourself you can't.



No troll is too much for me to handle. I rehabilitate trolls, I train people. I am the Troll Whisperer.
