  • Your life will probably be a great deal easier for being contented with not needing to get involved in such things.

    Reading many posts on here it does bring unhappiness and frustration for those that do need to find relationships or other involvements.  Also many are left questing what for them may be the unattainable, because they cannot achieve the social interchanges that are needed.

    My rather frank posting was because so many people on the spectrum find themselves particularly driven in certain directions, attainable or otherwise, but do not get good advice or help with it. The isolation of AS make it difficult to get sufficient grasp of the reality of such ventures, or reassurance from peers, in relation to their ideals and perceptions.
