| I have a similar problem, sometimes I really enjoy going out with friends but other times it's a living hell if it gets too loud, you can't join in a conversation and the conversation is something upsetting for someone with ASD. I find I enjoy going out most if it's with just a couple of friends and... |

| I know a guy who has sex with a lot of women, and while I know a lot of us don't like that type of behavior he seems to be successful because he has very cold behavior. He essentially goes to a bar, sits in a corner and doesn't speak to anyone, when he notices a woman look at him he just stares her ... |

| While actually going out and interacting with people certainly helps in some ways with Aspergers it can often have the opposite effect depending on the situation and conversations. For example if I decided to go to a museum or something and talk to people there about things that interested me I'd re... |
