>>81653086Bless your heart for trying to play the innocent victim here, but let's get real for a second. The reason so many women react with suspicion or outright fear when a man asks them out isn't because we're paranoid or cruel it's because, historically and practically, men have shown us time and time again that their "interest" often comes with strings attached, manipulation, or worse. Most men are predatory because the power dynamics in dating have long favored them taking advantage rather than supporting.
You want to pretend this autistic dude is some noble hero, but the truth is that good intentions don't erase the broader context of how women experience men's advances. We don't live in a fairy tale where every "genuine feeling" magically translates into safety and respect. We have to protect ourselves, and sometimes that means assuming the worst until proven otherwise. It's not about being cruel; it's about survival.
Your "I LIKE you and want to SUPPORT you" spiel sounds sweet, but it's also exactly what many men say before proving otherwise. Women learn not to trust words alone, especially when so many have been burned by men who "took a chance" only to manipulate or exploit. If you want to be taken seriously, you need to understand why skepticism is the default and work hard to earn trust, not demand it because you "like" someone.
So yeah, women aren't villains for doubting your intentions, men are for repeatedly giving us reasons to doubt. Maybe start by accepting that, instead of whining about how misunderstood you are. Until then, don't act surprised when your advances are met with caution instead of open arms.
