7 years for me and I can completely testify. I don't even have a tulpa anymore. I can't scroll up or down the contacts list on my phone because I only have my mom's number and the number of my credit card company. I also have no idea how people even make friends. The only friend I did have was due to him being in class with me during high school. But even now, in my 3 years of college, I have yet to witness a single classmate become the friend of someone else. They talk and joke around, but after class… nothing.

I, too, am reasonably healthy–and still nothing. Being muscular, which can rarely be seen under most clothes, does not make people approach you in any way. Perhaps admire you from a distance, but the Disney scenario you have in your head is far from reality. Even if someone did approach me, my autism would merely deflect their advances in some way or another. And if that fails (which it has yet to), my jobless, car-less, mundane life would put an end to any interest they had in me.
