I'm a 29 year old guy and, despite not being officially or clinically recognized being on the Autism Spectrum Disorder, I do believe I have Aspeger's Syndrome, and that's why I am here.
My main issues, of course, are interacting, establishing meaningful contacts and noticing subtleties and social nuances, especially nonverbal cues (fortunately, most of the time I can notice them and act accordingly). However, I wouldn't describe myself as shy nor suffering Social Anxiety Disorder, just somewhat introvert and only a bit anxious in social situations where I'm the center of the attention (although I can socialize and have a good time with those that share with me similar behavior, interests, values etc.).
I never had a girlfriend, since I'm not good dealing with others, and most of the time I avoided others since I'm afraid of rejection and being mocked.
I only found this forum recently and decided to join in. Before being here, I was on another group, but I left without accounting for, since I lost my interest on the people there and I didn't feel good and belonging.
