I'm 24 and male and have been single all my life. I'm pretty introverted and have autism, meaning I never approach people and always have to have someone else initiate conversation before I can speak to them, and even then, it takes so much time for me to build a friendship with someone and eventually be able to speak to them like anyone else would, but even then, I can go for ages without speaking to my friends because I can't think of anything to say that isn't just small talk and generic how have you been etc questions.

This means romance is a remote possibility for me, which upsets me since I think I have enormous potential to be a good boyfriend and desperately want to love someone/feel loved and desired.

So online dating it is. Tinder, bumble, Hinge, they're all terrible for me and I never get anywhere on them (been using them on and off for 6 years and never had one date 💀). Tried using reddit and get some more success but still nothing more then a few days of chats before they either ghost me or say the old "I'm not ready for a relationship" line.

Anyways, got my account banned temporarily the other day for 5 days because I unknowingly broke a subreddits' rules and then made another post on the same sub with an alt account (this was after I posted a r4r kinda post)

Hoped that after the ban, I'd have a few chat requests to look through, but nothing. Not 1 in 5 days. How do I get out of this situation? Am I that undeserving of love?

Thanks for listening
