LLOOOLL!!! Classic female! Denial of a written statement that she authored herself. Effective gaslighting needs bigger brains and more attention to detail than that.
No my dear, you said exactly those things. After all, you yourself told OP on the previous page:
annotations from a woman wrote: "I no longer think you're creepy or weird or anything like that."
Check your own posting. So, you "no longer" think so. That means, before that, you THOUGHT HE WAS CREEPY OR WEIRD OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT.
Gotcha! You know it, and so does everyone reading this.
Dudes, you all know that women HATE HATE HATE being called out on their own actions when they contradict their self-identified morals..... and for them it's much worse when this is done by those whom they place into image-hell. Like INCELs such as me.
Facts stand for themselves and like many women you dig your own ethical hole so well. Just like those female callers to Leykis who try to argue that women don't use men, sponge from men, expect whiteknighting when convenient for them and dismiss it when not etc. Love the way Leykis gives it to them with both barrels!

No. Did i tell him there is someone for you and that all women are understanding? no, I merely apologized for being insensitive to an autistic person and advised him to disclose up front because it may help others understand where he is coming from and maybe he will meet someone in a similar position. Get your head out of your incelibate ass.

re: annotations from a woman

I told him i no longer think he is creepy and weird (because i understand his responses and actions have to do with his autism, not being a creeper) but that doesnt mean I want to date him or think tons of others will. I do think there is hope for him if he works on making some changes. Take a remedial reading skills class.

socializing is a big part of society but it's not everything.. it's actually very small and important when you think of how massive the universe is.. but most women only care about social status because they are mentally retarded and don't care about the universe or anything else but pitiful things like that.

re: awkward andy

I have been called a creep. Multiple times in real life.

Then I gave up the oneitis and fancy romances.

I get really awkward on dates. My last one was a disaster. There was so little talking that I literally remember every word said. We met at starbucks. She was 2 hours late without any fuking sorry.

Me: Hey how are you, nice to see you again.
Her: Hi, I'm good how are you?
Me: I'm good too now that you are here.
Her: Cool lets get a coffee it's cold and wet out here.
Me: Tell me what you want and I'll get it.
Her: Oh thanks that's sweet, I'll have a pumpkin latte and banana bread cake. Do you mind if I get a seat I'm to tired for queuing?
Me: No problem. I understand. I do a lot of running so I get tired legs too. I have a marathon coming up.
Her: Oh that sounds tough. See you in a minute.
While I was getting the stuff she spent the 5 minutes on her phone. She didn't evan look over at me once.
Me: So here is your coffee and snack.
Her: Oh thanks how much do I owe you.
Me: Oh no girls shouldn't have to pay. This is my treat.
Her: Ok haha, that's sweet.
Me: I hope you enjoy it. I really like coming here. Do you come here often?
Her: Haha sometimes.
Me: It's a nice place to chill out
Her: Ye sure is
Me: I hope that rain calms down outside. I was running in it earlier. It was torture.
Her: You went running, with that outside. That's crazy.
Me: I know it isn't easy. I hate the rain but I don't let it get in the way of my marathon training.
Her: Good luck with that.
Me: Do you ever run marathons
Her: Haha I'm not that fit. I only run when I'm late for something.
Me: What do you like to do.
Her: What do you mean.
Me: What are your interests.
Her: Like hobbies you know.
Me: Yea what are your hobbies.
Her: Haha I like shopping with my girlfriends and dancing.
Me: I would love to take you shopping someday. The mall over on Cumberdale Drive is great.
Her: Haha yea maybe.
Me: Cool.
Her: Yea
Me: This coffee tastes amazing.
Her: Yea mine too.
Me: It looks good
Her: ha thanks.
Me: I could stay here all day
Her: I have to go to dance rehearsal
Me: Oh that's a shame it is great to be here. I hope your dancing goes really good.
Her: Haha I meant I can't stay all day because I have rehearsal today. I'll stay until I finish my cake and coffee.
Me: Thanks. Silly me.
Her: No problem
Me: I hope the dancing is going well
Her: Thanks, yea it is
Me: Oh cool
Her: Ha thanks
Me: I wish I could dance
Her: You should learn it's fun
Me: I am more suited to running
Her: It's good to learn new things
Me: I will. Running is my favorite hobby. I am inspired by the best runner. Bekele. Do you know him?
Her: I've never heard of him but I'm sure he is interesting.
Me: He is my favorite runner and probably my hero.
Her: I don't really like running. I enjoy dancing and yoga.
Me: I bet your a great dancer.
Her: I'm ok. It is good for meeting new people.
Me: It is amazing meeting you.
Her: Ha thanks.
Me: I really like you and want to meet again.
Her: We will. I'm running late I better go. Lets meet another time.
She reached her hand out to shake mine. She smiled nicely at me and walked away. She still had most of her cake and coffee left on the table.
Me: It was great to come here with you. I really want to see you again. Enjoy your dancing. Take care.
Her: Thanks you too.
She rushed out and that was 2 weeks ago. I've tried sending messages but get ignored. Did I handle the date well or is something wrong with her? Maybe she is the awkward one

This is hilarious! 10/10 to banana bread! We need more of this kind of trolling.

Speaking of social status... many young people think a blue checkmark next to their social media name is their "status" in society. Some are literally having depressive episodes based on their lack of higher "status" on social media/society. Pathetic and shallow.

This is a joke, right? On the off chance that this isn't a joke and you are truly clueless, I have made annotations for you on all the places you sound awful and creepy.

Your creep-o-meter is finely tuned. Good notations. You did breeze by the "I really want to see you again" desperation moment, though.

Cringe-a-thon!

There was an unfortunate gaff right at the beginning that gave it away. I had to pretend to myself that I mis-read it in order to enjoy the rest. 2 hours late? 45 minutes perhaps, at the absolute maximum, but 2 hours no way - blew it. And no-one can stretch for 2 hours anyway even if they wanted to. He wouldn't have been able to walk to the table without collapsing in a rubbery heap.

Humans are wired to care about social status. It had major survival implications for most of human history. I'm not saying that it's all-important, because it's not, but it's easy to understand why people place such a high value on socialization if you think about it.

https://waitbutwhy.com/2014/06/taming-mammoth-let-peoples-opinions-run-life.html

From a fellow awkward person to all the other awkward people in this thread: socializing is really easy, and it's a great way to make people like you and do things for you. It just takes humility - you have to be prepared to admit to yourself that what you want may not be what someone else wants, even if they are obviously wrong. Watch other people who are socially successful and copy them. When you talk to someone, think "how would this person like for me to behave towards them?" Empathy will take you places, even if you aren't good at it.

re: awkward andy

I would like to say "So what?" but I'm finding I'm one of the rare people who understand that all people need to be treated nicely - you never know what's going on in their life. Most people where I live are total aholes. Just a couple hours ago I was coming in from a run and I walk past my neighbors friend who is visiting. I wanted to say "Hi" but this guy's demeanor was totally condescending towards me. I felt like saying " You and your friend, dumb and dumber".

So don't sweat it. Find someone people who can make you feel better about yourself. It's easier said than done but it is in fact possible.

I am socially inept, a bad conversationalist, and am physically clumsy. Just all around awkward.

I am still seeking some input on this. How do I learn to converse with people I don't know well? I just don't have that skill. I am still very awkward.

Empathy and honesty helps, as in when they say something, put yourself in their shoes and imagine how it would feel, and follow up with an honest response, not just because you need to say something in response.

Tactically, actually listening and following up with a question always works, even if it’s not out of honest interest.

re: awkward andy

I am probably one of the most awkward people on the planet. I look weird, I speak in a weird way, have weird mannerisms, and just don't know how to relate to people. I just want to go into hiding and not be seen by anyone.

Unfortunately, real life requires certain levels of interaction: work, stores, races, ect. I just wish I could do those things without actually interacting with anyone.

I just want to find an assisted living community where I can wear adult crotchless diapers and not get all the weird stares. Talk about awkward.

re: awkward andy

Are you mostly intelligent, though? Get into woodworking. By planning your projects and focusing so you get competent enough to not maim yourself, you can work alone and sell your stuff online so you never have to deal with others, except the off-chance you need someone to help with your supplies. From there, maybe you can branch out into interior finish work locally, which many folks are ok at, but few are really good.
