  Carrying anything on my face is a terrifying prospect, IDK if it’s an autistic thing but I can’t do many expressions that don’t look obviously forced.

  I’m confused by what you mean here - you mean your face doesn’t express emotion? Because you are afraid of expressing emotion? That will be a problem. As you already said you are working with a therapist - maybe this is something to work on specifically.

  And I do live in a metro of less than 1m, but I believe my range goes up to a metro of > 1m.

  If you have that number of people in your range, then it isn’t the problem in how much you are matching. It may become more of an issue when trying to actually arrange dates, though.

  The clothes I have now are stylish. But I have no photos in them yet.

  Yeah, no one on the apps knows how well you dress unless you have pics of it.

  But more importantly, I think I’ve just realized I’m really not ready to date, no matter how strong my desire for intimacy is. I’ll be going through some medicine changes and therapy. Maybe I’ll re look at this after.

  Totally valid.
