CYBER ASPERGIRLS
Monthly online dating for Asperger women
They are born from an original idea of Dr. Valentina Pasin , Psychologist and Psychotherapist in training, expert in Autism Spectrum Disorders and female functioning of Asperger's syndrome, and they aim to provide an opportunity for reflection and discussion for girls and Asperger women aged 20 and over (if you are younger, you can join the online groups for Asperger girls aged 11-19, for more information read here ).
​
The meetings are held on a monthly basis and are held via Zoom. Asperger girls and women are dedicated (it is not necessary to have already obtained a formal diagnosis) who for reasons of distance cannot participate in the meetings that take place monthly at our headquarters in Thiene (VI).
During the meetings via Zoom, issues concerning female Asperger's functioning will be addressed and the story of life experiences and mutual comparison will be encouraged, with the aim of increasing one's self-awareness and at the same time favoring the development of friendly networks between participants.

Participation
It is not mandatory to participate in all the meetings, but clearly assiduous participation will favor:
​
- an in-depth understanding of all the issues addressed
​
- mutual knowledge and therefore greater trust and sharing among the participants
​
- the possibility of proposing topics of one's own interest for subsequent appointments
Context
It is essential to attend meetings by making sure you are inside a peaceful and relaxing environment, with respect for both oneself and of the other participants. It will therefore be necessary:
​
- make sure your internet connection is working properly BEFORE the match starts
​
- make sure you are in an environment free from acoustic or environmental disturbances for the entire duration of the meeting (in particular: the telephone must be switched off; all notifications on the computer must be silenced; you must be in a room silent and welcoming; interruptions by family members must be avoided during the entire time of the meeting)
Sharing
It is not always easy to tell about oneself when experiencing difficulties, nor to admit one's limitations or weaknesses to others. The purpose of these dating however, it is precisely that of telling and elaborating one's own life experiences, having the opportunity to confront and receive indications regarding one's frailties, within a NON-JUDGING but supportive and understanding context.
​
The fact that we are all women who share a neurodiverse functioning will help participation, sharing and the development of a sense of well-being and acceptance, due to the elimination of the misunderstandings that usually arise from relationships with neurotypical people.
​
Being the comparison between experiences and sharing parts fundamental of the meetings, we recommend participation in the meetings only to those women who feel ready to open up to others, albeit within a protected context managed by expert specialists. For all the others, we recommend that participation in the meetings be preceded by individual psychological sessions (also possible via Skype).
Mutual respect
We ask for a free individual interview to girls and women who have not obtained the diagnosis at our center to have the opportunity to get to know each other a little and, as far as possible, feel at ease from the first Cyber Aspergirls appointment.
In this way we also try to guarantee participation only to motivated, educated and respectful of diversity women.
​
In fact, all participants are asked to behave politely, respectfully, decently and civilly during all appointments. If Dr. Pasin deems it necessary, reserves the right to exclude a participant from the group in the event that she did not behave in compliance with the content and the sensitivity of the other participants.
Payments
The cost of each Cyber Aspergirls appointment is € 20. Payment is made only for the meetings in which you intend to attend and must be performed within the day before the meeting.
In case of absence at a meeting that has already been paid for, the payment will not be refunded.
Payments are made by bank transfer. More instructions will follow upon signing up.
