I've had no luck with Rships having dyspraxia

[TSDREX]

Hi,

Where do i start.. Since i started Secondary school i'm that Kid that sit quiet corner of the class and just do the work and not had many friends, I get Scared, nervous being around people. Kids in the classroom used to make fun out of me and use my Disability as a advantage, they found it amusing. Out of school my Social life just involved online never allowed to be out felt like a prison living at home as my mom worried about me more than any one else in the family.

When i started to go out and meeting Girls by online i had a few rships but lasted like week or even few days, at college i still meeting Girls by dating sites and i attract the wrong kind of girls or they don't like me. And half of the time they'll repeat what i've just said as i speak faster when confronted with a pretty girl etc. I never had a rship lasting over a year and don't like the whole idea being single for many years but i can wait, But i;ve stopped dating sites. But in real life i just can't go to some woman whos a total stranger and try "chat them up".

I see all around me "normal" people getting happy long relationships, All my life i've been trying to find a decent Rship but it's very hard for me with Dyspbraxia to be in long term Rship

Any tips / advice or even anyone here who are in releationship?

Thanks Tom

Me neither. I'm ok with female friends as long as I don't fool myself into thinking they would be into something more.

I've had plenty of disappointments on dating sites and am currently at a stage of not really knowing what to say to initiate a conversation. I tend to just put myself under far too much pressure. I guess it's a case of not taking failures to heart and to keep trying to enjoy oneself but it's not working. The whole stop looking it will happen is not something I can do well.

I've been employing the 'not looking' thing for quite some time. And I'm just as relationshipless as I was whilst actually looking.

well if you don't look how are they supposed to find you? tried that method, it doesn't seem to work for me but then again i probably don't get out enough.

I definitely don't get out enough. I'm well aware of the fact my lack of socialising does me no favours.

I'm not actively looking, mainly because I found the period when I tried dating sites and got minimal response despite maximum effort extremely demoralising. Add to that many sites use dubious tactics to get people to subscribe and effectively scam for money. I figured I was better off without it.
