Autism and relationships

Hi Everyone,

I have a problem with relationships and was wondering if i could have some advice   I have always struggled to make friends let alone try intimate relationships.  I am 27 and have never had a close circle of friends or a boyfriend.  I have aways struggled as i was bullied all through school and then i had College and University to occupy my time. 

It is geting  harder now that i have a part time job and seeing all of my brothers and sisters start their own careers and lives.  My second youngest brother is married and has a little girl.  It has been hard to come to terms wih the fact that this is something i may never have. 

My problem is that i sturggle to read signals and i do not explain the way i feel very well.  I also do not like physical contact i can become violent if i am touched although this isnt as bad anymore.  Physical contact like cuddling isnt nice it can sometimes hurt and it is uncomfortable. 

I really do not know what to do or what support is out there for me.

Do you have any advice.
