Why is dating so hard as an autistic woman nearing 30?

[Anonymous]

I went on a couple dates with some guys and it just didn’t go far. No second dates.
in February I talked to this guy for a couple weeks and last month we went on our first date. It was great until he said he doesn’t feel the spark and after all that he’s begun seeing someone else.
Then this guy I went on a date two days ago left during the middle of the date because after he asked he is there something about me that he needed to know and I told him straight that I’m autistic but I am capable of a lot of things. He just sat there and looked at me weirded out. Then he said, “Good night and I hope you find what you are looking for. I can’t see myself with an autistic woman.” He just left me. Seriously? I ended up paying the whole bill. I seriously give up on dating.
Even some guys that are neurodivergent didn’t seem interested in me.

A guy last year I was crushing in has dyslexia and ADHD and he told me that he needs someone that’s a bit mature, doesn’t have a lot of sensory issues and lacks cues which I do and that’s going to be a problem. Also he doesn’t find me attractive.
What am I going to do? I’m pushing 30 and I haven’t fond the write person.

Because autistics often have a hard time with social norms

Nope its opposite guys love to go on date with 30+ womens.

But would they be willing to date an autistic woman? Most of them won’t even give me the time of day.
