Hello.
My name is Alberto, I've just turned 40, and by suggestion of my psychologist and after reading some books about AS and Asperger's I'm starting the journey to get a diagnosis.
I moved to the UK a couple of years ago for work reasons. I'm currently living in Cambridgeshire.
Being somewhat new to the UK and very probably being on the spectrum, making friendships is very hard for me. I sadly can say that I have no friends at the moment here and my family lives in a different country. So, yeah, it can get lonely sometimes.
These past couple of years have had their difficulties, but I'm happy-ish at were my life is heading.
Well, that's it for now...
Hope to get to know some people around here.
Hi,
I'm 40 & in the UK.
I don't really have many friends and have lived here all my life. Diagnosed this year.
I go to a craft group once a week and although the people there are not exactly my friends, they are people I like and get to interact with every two weeks.
Maybe you could join a club or group, or go to a certain excersise session at a gym. Regular groups are good because same people tend to go.

Hi! Well, I've joined a tennis group which starts today actually! Let's see how that goes, and I take a piano lesson every 2 weeks. Not a group, but at least I get contact with another human being and that gets me out of my comfort zone, which is good.
