Hi :D
My name is Jessie I'm a 25 female and I have HFA. Just looking to make some online or offline friends (offline make take a long time, hard for me to meet in person because I don't like my routine changing).....But I would like it alot to have some "PenPal" friends on wrongplanet to private mail back and forth with and just talk about simlair intrests or anything really..Let me know if you want to be online penpals or if you live in Florida and ever want to meet one day after a long time of conversing online let me know. :D

Welcome GizmoGirl,

I am sure you will make online friends here, but we all have that leaving the house thing.

Welcome!

I voted "yes". Making friends is no piece of cake, but I find that actually keeping them once I have them is even harder. When someone comes too close and we become too attached emotionally, I usually retire into my shell without a sign of life. I know I've wasted several good opportunities for friendship that way, but otherwise I'd freak out. I guess it frightens the heck out of me when people get too close (except for some family members).
Anyway, welcome to WP!

Hi Jessie,

welcome to WP.

I agree, offline friends are hard to make. I find also, that once they get to know me, they seem to think differently of me. Online friends are good, though.

I would be happy to be a WP "penpal" for you. I am 16 so a fair bit younger but if you want to PM me you can do so.

Welcome aboard, Jessie.

I'm 25 and diag'd with AS. Offline friends aren't that easy, but it's all doable :)
