Yep just found this place. I'm currently travelling in Queensland, Oz, but live in NZ... well, I will return there but have no idea what I will do or where I will go. I just need to be somewhere warm.

Over last few years I have realised that I am a mild Aspie. Seeing my cousin bring up his Aspergers son (aged 7), I can now see that I gave my own parents hell and was Aspie. Things seemed to get better after childhood. But recently over the last few years (since turning 40+) I have noticed that I am starting to find day to day living harder. Don't know where to turn for help really. I'm not the sort of person who likes to go to Dr's. So I thought I'd start here.

Hello anyway.

Hello. I am from the U.S. but I have been in the Sydney area since this time last year. I go back to the U.S. in January and then will be working on everything that I need to do to make the move to Australia permanent.

I am really hoping to find some Aspie women in the Sydney area with whom I could occasionally get together. As much of a hermit homebody as I tend to be, the boyfriend just isn't enough socialization for me. NTs seem to require more work than I am able to manage. I don't always get to email right away or manage some other social etiquette that seems necessary for friendship in the 'real' world.

If anyone, female, would like to meet up sometime to chat over a beverage or meal or even go for a quiet stroll somewhere please let me know.

It has taken me a while to get up the courage to post this because of my horrible fear of rejection, but here it is at last.

thanks,

Serena
