Hi

I am an Aspie from Australia and I would be interested in connecting with others out there for friendship. I am 36 years old and find the NT world confusing and I suffer like most from heightened anxiety and social isolation.

Hi, I'm from Australia too. South coast NSW area. How about you?

I have some anxiety and social awkwardness, but it used to be worse, so I can understand where you're coming from.

It's ok. It's quiet but a little lonely. I have friends spread all through NSW, but don't have that many friends in my own area. And unemployment is way high, so I may have to move to Sydney.

"ay, 'ow the f**k are ya?"

( translated into more eloquent language besically means a BIG, WARM HELLO. )

Hi, I'm from Sydney metro. I met an Aussie aspie female friend at another autism web forum. We are both marrried with 2 kids. We live 5 minutes from each other. We both gym together on regular occassions now. We consider ourselves good friends and we enjoy our conversations.

It is awesome being able to speak with someone(An aspie) and there is no offense ever taken by either of us during conversation.

Brisbane

Not that it matters, as people are the same no matter where you go; well, they all appear the same to me.

On a hill, hidden amongst the trees, at Samsonvale/Kobble Creek (they don't really know which one we are in), which is between Dayboro and Samford.

Nice. I am in a small box-like college room, high in the air, with a large window through which there are big trees and an oval.
