I'm on Eharmony and autistic so it's hard for me to talk to people. There are very few women who I find compatible. I feel really alone in the world. I've talked back and forth with 3 women. The first we facetime dated for a few months then all of a sudden it's "I've found someone better, goodbye". The 2nd was going well but out of the blue her profile was deleted. Now with the 3rd again it was going well, we shared common interests like both being novel writers but it's been over a week since her last message. Eharmony logged me out today, wouldn't accept my password and wouldn't send my email a new one. Finally I logged on with facebook and that worked. Maybe that happened to her too.
It's just that so many stars have to align for someone to even respond to a message. Then everything can end for no reason. It's really hard living in CO because I get all these pages of matches but literally 3/4ths are over 60 miles away. I'm also atheist and every other profile says "I want a man who loves Jesus". It's hard. I feel like a moth being drawn to the flame again and again. Thanks for listening.

(32,676 posts)They are open to anyone, just go online to ones around you to see if they meet like that and ask for the code to get on. Mine has already plan to keep on Zoom until June, at least.
Hey have fun and good luck to you.

Yeah, the Christians were a real drag.
Good luck.
