    Does anyone else here actually ENJOY some social interaction? [Warning: A NOVEL]

    OK, I know this thread is gonna seriously call my "Aspie cred" into question, and in some people's opinions, may even disqualify me from being on the spectrum altogether. But ever since I was diagnosed in 5th grade and started researching this enigmatic condition more thoroughly, I've gravitated...

    What made you sad today?

    Have been paying attention to the real estate listings from the area I grew up in. Businesses left long ago, there are no doctors left and now only a small medical clinic, the people who remained were all older and retired.

    Greetings everyone!

    Greetings to those that read this post and a deep thanks. I just recently got my ASD diagnosis coupled with C-PTSD, Anxiety, and Depression (even though I don't feel depressed). I was even tested to have a higher than average IQ which makes this seem all the more frustrating for me. I have...

    I found some nice memories from past friends

    I was cleaning my room when I found a paper box with some memorabilia/letters from old friends. Back when I was in my last year of high school, my senior year I guess they call it that way in US, there was this tradition of exchanging letters or thoughts on paper with every student who was going...

    Any one else hate it when someone says "don't worry you'll make new friends"

    I have Aspergers and so obviously making friends is very hard and change is difficult. When there is a big change such as a move to a different state or school or whatever this phrase is said. It's like frustrating cause other people think you can make friends just as easily as others and that...

    New friends and my naive approach

    I started College this fall and I found a lot of new friends there. It was nice at beginning but later was getting harder. My parents always kept telling me that when someone do something not nice to me and later is again nice it's means that they regret but they aren't brave enough to admit...

    Friends/loneliness

    Hiya I've spent the last few years stumbling about in a kind of exhausted stupor; finally got my diagnosis a year ago. I always thought it was my fault for not having friends, because I barely got out of the house. Now I've started uni; and I've been making a conscious effort to socialize...

    I'm struggling to make new friends

    I moved to Yorkshire in October 2016 and it's now August 2019 and I still haven't made any friends here, I'm worried about what to say or how to approach people. I had lots of friends back in Bedfordshire and in London, I don't know what to do, I feel really isolated, I've been thinking about...

    "In love" vs thinking rationally/logical with a friend

    Hello everyone. I've had this issue almost for years with an old friend. We know each other for like almost 13 years, we were 16yo back then and it is a looong and maybe complex story. Do I need to tell you about it? Probably for context, let me know if it is needed. Anyway, for last couple of...

    Seek Friends, Even Motivational Friends

    Maybe there's someone here who seems somewhat like me who'd like to be friends (online or real life), or even motivational friends to help inspire & motivate each other on our projects. Presently I have no friends, but have a lot of projects which is difficult for me to find motivation to work...

    a shy hi from Garden Grove

    I've made an account on this website for about a year or two (not sure, and not willing enough to check at the moment) but wanted to finally say hello. :) I was diagnosed with Asperger's two years ago and am living and dealing with mostly neurotypicals. I personally don't have many people that...

    Wiped Out

    So these past couple days have been interesting, to say the least. I've never known myself to have anger issues, but I've noticed that I get annoyed very quickly in situations that wouldn't bother me before. Other kids asking questions in class, a couple of kids talking over the teacher/when...

    Came out To New NT Friend as Autistic, Says he Doesn't Think of me Any Differently!

    So, I met this dude in a LiveLesson (basically just a classroom where the teacher is teaching, but through the internet) who is enrolled in the same online school program as me last week. We were working in break out rooms (small groups for colab), and he was one of the people that was in...

    Hi All!

    need support system and understanding friends.

    I made the decision to cut contact with an abusive family who choose not to respect me or my boundaries. It has left me completely estranged with friends of family or even associates of family. I don't have anyone to talk to and no one reaches out to me. People who are not even involved have...
