In lieu of appropriate social groups: What would you like from a ASD social group?
i don’t do pubs and don’t like going out at night.
So I thought cinema etc?
I would like to find an Asperger's group which meets in my local area! (That would be a start.)
One which meets in the daytime once a month, due to evening travel being unavailable in my immediate area, would be best.
A warm, comfortable, indoor location with comfortable seating and refreshments available. No distractions, such as TV or crowds, and based on a casual conversational set-up but with the possibility for invited speakers.
It would be nice to meet other people facing similar challenges and share experiences and resources. Pretty much a live version of this forum but with people who additionally understand the local geographical issues that make accessing most services out there pretty much impossible from here.

I would be interested in this but at the time same I find it terrifying, casual conversations in closed spaces, nothing else to do than talk - or not talk...
Realistically, I am, probably, more interested in an outdoor one. For me walking is a much easier way to interact with people too.
