I am new and figuring out a few things on here. I havent been able to upload a photo from my files (im using my phone).

I am looking for friends with Autism like me. But i am open to talking to anyone. I do have a boyfriend and a few family members im close to, but i do feel like an alien with them sometimes, no matter how much they try to accommodate my needs.

Im wondering if i would fit in better with people who are like me or understand what its like?

Im also looking for a few gamer friends, i mainly play Elder Scrolls and Minecraft on Xbox One, but might be open to other games too?

Welcome to Wrong Planet.

From personal experience, I have found that Aspies can make good friends.

Welcome. I don't play games too often but I do play The Lord of the Rings Mod for Minecraft sometimes, along with The Long Dark and Rimworld from time to time.

Welcome.
May I ask if you are over or under the age of 25?

I'm a gamer also, but I use the PS4, rather than the Xbox.

I don't play multiplayer First Person Shooter games on the PC any longer due to the amount of cheating/hacking on that platform.

Yes, you will gain a lot of insight engaging with people on this autistic website.
I have.
