Serious topic, is it possible I am autistic and don’t know it.
I have no girlfriend, asked a few women out years ago but was turned down and I just gave up, but now with this virus going on I don’t go out. I also have no friends and looking back now I think the only reason people were friends with me was because they felt sorry for me

It is possible yes. Many people don't find out until later in life.

Plenty of online tests from reputable places that can give indication of traits

Try this out.

yes, it's possible. Autism is not a binary
disease, it's a spectrum.

i didn't have an official diagnosis until i was 55
years old, although i had a section 12 Army discharge
at 21.

I have all those but my empathy is strong. Pattern recognition and big picture thinking are my norm. I am very organised but it doesn't look like it to outsiders.

Eh, a lot of people check the boxes for autism but it doesn't mean anything really. It's a buzz word these days to just label people. True autism used to be defined a lot differently. You probably are just an independent thinker who doesn't conform to modern mainstream norms. Be patient, the quirkiest people I know have had the longest and most compatible marriages once they found their person.

If you do have traits it's not necessarily a negative at all. A serving british admiral says his aspergers has helped him get where he is.

If you've come this far without knowing, it doesn't matter, does it?

You can pretty much do anything in this world if you want bad enough and stick with it.

Putting yourself in a box with a label doesn't do anything but give you an excuse to fail.

Autism is a spectrum, you might be somewhere on the spectrum and bong completely neurotypical, however it’s more likely your just particular or shy. Your fine the way you are.

Perhaps boost your self confidence in being yourself. Do some things you want to do but do them for you not for others or to meet people. Pick a hobby or something positive just for you and go do it.

Pick a personal path; Pour your passion into it. If you meet others along the journey great. if not that’s fine too.

Damn the ramparts.

No, there is probably nothing wrong with you. You have empathy so the evil ones are attempting to shut you down, develop a complex so you socially distance. You have just got to get out more thats all. Most people are wrapped up in themselves, they have a friend or two from hs and a job, possibly they have family. That's it. Thats the norm.

Re: Serious topic, is it possible I am autistic and don’t know it.
Like others have said, don't put yourself in that "label box". Everyone has traits.

Women aren't everything, and they've caused a lot of problems for people I know.

Here's some people who did just fine with autism or asperger's (and the introverted traits helped them):
Anthony Hopkins
Elon Musk
Vladimir Putin
Andy Warhol
Bill Gates
Richard Branson
Nikola Tesla
Dan Akroyd
Courtney Love
Tim Burton
Hans Christian Andersen
Charles Darwin
Albert Einstein
Steve Jobs
Stanley Kubrick
Michaelangelo

People are people, some win, some lose. There's plenty of miserable and despicable people who have no problems with girls, if that is your focus. It just takes effort, or maybe you just care more about other things and appreciate the freedom of being alone. Remember, we're all alone anyways. My parents are divorced/remarried and they sure as hell aren't happy with their significant others! My dad pretty much told me my conception ruined his life!

However, with the new "woke I support the current thing", I identify as an disabled autistic Hispanic investment banker with no criminal record and PTSD. Oh, you say I don't?? Lawsuit!

If it makes you feel better, almost everyone alive today is autistic.

What with all the fluoride in the water, countless vaccines you've had since a baby, all the poisons in water and food, other chemicals and radiation modern society pummels us with.

Don't feel bad, you're just like everyone else.

Re: Serious topic, is it possible I am autistic and don’t know it.
I see myself as somwhwat autistic too. Especially the low esteem part I'm struggling a lot with.

My doc put me on neurexan and it does help. By my own obervation I suspect I have poisoned nerves in my butt.

Have you been vaccinated? And I don't talk about the covid ones. I've received so many shots in my youth and my last ones retriggered my neurodermitis. As it says it's a neural illness.

These jab-poisons destroy you in ways it's hard to find out.
