Hi everyone, I joined a while back but have been too shy to introduce myself and thought i'd give it a try now. I'm female, aged 24.

Hobbies and Interests: Horses, Reading books, Watching movies and TV/Netflix, Pokemon Yellow (I still own a Gameboy Color)

Why are you here?: I was diagnosed with Aspergers 2 years ago and after being on my own for about 8 years now (I have no RL friends) i'd like to talk to others who are a similar life situation to me. I left high school at 14 due to constant anxiety and homeschooled myself for the next few years. I'm still not very good with people and avoid phone calls, driving and leaving the house on my own unless I absolutely have to. So I thought talking to people who understand my quirks would be a good start.

Books: I really enjoy reading Young Adult/Teen Fiction novels with a focus on Contemporary Mysteries & Thrillers.

TV Shows: Major Crimes, The 100, Grey's Anatomy, Blindspot, The Blacklist, Quantico, How To Get Away With Murder, Game of Thrones, Homeland, Rizzoli & Isles.

Whou hou ! A new lovely girl to sedu... ahem, I mean, welcome aboard. Feel free to rock as many boats as you please (well maybe not due to your level of shyness). Alas, I do not see that we personally (between you and I) have any shared interests (even if we have both read a lot of books but most of my reading is controversial non-fiction like para-psychology), but then again it's probably better for you not to adopt my interests with as shy as you are. I mean, I even admit to being a Tin-Foil Hat-Wearing Lunatic Conspiracy Theorist So-Called Nutter, and you just can't be diving into these kinds of Rabbit-Holes in Public when you're shy.

One of these days I plan to try to gather up all of the people with no friends so that we can build/develop our own community together, construct our own mansion in which we all live (like a guild-building such as what you would find in animé similar to Fairy Tail), I would be the guild-master, directing all of you less-experienced Aspies into what needs to be done for our comfort/survival/progress/advancement, like research/construction of Free-Energy Devices for us to be able to produce our own electricity, hydroponic farm-systems so that we can feed ourselves, water-hydration condensers so that we can generate our own water without having to rely on public facilities or pumping it out of the ground, and all sorts of other inventor-level designs to have as part of our safe-haven.

Welcome, I am sorry you've been by yourself, I also understand the sentiment behind needing to converse with those from a similar life path, you will find such comprehending folk eventually :) And I'm sure many here can relate to thee! I like the old pokémon games a lot too, I play one every few months, I can't leave the alluring pixel lands and loyal creatures behind! :mrgreen:
