Need help making friends

I am an 18 year old boy with autism and ever since I have left high school I haven't had a friend that lives close to me, can I have some advice on how to change that?

  • Hi there are you interested in gaming ? My son is 20 and he does not have many friends. He probably doesn't live close though 

  • Hi, my son is 19 and he too hasn't many friends, he used to play online games with a few Americans until they just seemed to turn against him, they now totally ignore him, this has left him with a deep mistrust of people. Online gaming was the only social outreach he had

  • Hi there 

    If your son would like to play online with my son he would be happy as he has had same problem. He had people who  just deserted him and ignore him  I can send you my son's id name so your son could add him if you would like ? Xx

  • Hi Anna

    I'm new to here and didn't realise. Will remember this for future reference xx
