looking for friends...

hi im david i have aspergers syndrome, i find it hard to socialise and find myself alienated and alone...

i was first diagnosed at 13 and am now 38... i still find it hard to communicate even after living with aspergers for all this time... i stammer when i talk and very rarely give eye contact which often makes people believe im not listening or interested in what there saying...

anyone else out there having the same issues or is it just me.... :(

  • i have one main interest and thats computers... 

    i take them apart and rebuild them... often upgrading hardware parts inside.. i have had no training nor never worked in this field... i understand them better than i do people!!

    i find it hard to build relationships and friendships and more often than not will hide myself away i stammer all the time but cant seem to stop when im nervous or trying to explain things... its really embarassing!! :(

    i have tried volunteering before and it didnt work out maybe i wasnt ready!!

    thank you for your advice about for warning people about my lack of eye contact... i will try that in future... :) i thought i was the only one going through that situation!

    im very greatful....

    thanks
