I haven't made any friends since I got to college. I thought things were going to get better for me once I got out of Houston and out of my parents' house. I was wrong.

And every time I find someone who sounds interesting, I get hurt in the end--whether I meet them online or IRL, whether she is an NT or another Aspie.

At least I am doing very well academically.

Tim

Spent last 4 hours in and out, in and out, trying to get my adaptor in the right position for internet...hardly been able to go to anything all evening, and for what? No-one was there anyways! I had a major meltdown, hurt my hand and
I shant bother in future, better off with my books, they don't let me down.

I could have unpacked by now and done something useful.
What a f'ing waste of time the net is. All this just for a little human contact. Pitiful, my weakness.

((hugs back)) Thanks.

Not a good night. I always need to have my routine back when I return from London and to get back and not have the security of my net and people to talk to is a nightmare. Plus I have bad pms. :oops: I am about ready to find whoever is interfering with the net and stab them lol.

5-ish. I increased the amount of weight I can bench-press today. I'm up to a whopping 80 lbs :roll:. Oh well, at least I'm making progress. Watching G3 videos on Youtube makes me feel like the worst guitarist on the planet.

How long have you been at college?


About a week, but I already know who is in each class. I am at a school with only 6,000 students, so there aren't that many people. I am 27 years old, and I oftentimes feel that my age is keeping me from making friends. I hardly ever see my roommate.

I used to/do move a lot. . . and regardless of what anyone may say about experience meaning one makes friends fast, I always took six months to three years. . . it's gotten better as my social skills have developed, but, in essence. . . a week is fast to be sure of no possibilities.

Hey, don't rush it... I've been off and on in college for 7 years now and haven't made any friends. Certainly not from a lack of trying, though I admit I can't try as often as regular people...

Umm, I feel like a 0 again... Kind of depressed and feeling spiteful... and my sleep meds are kicking in. But I feel down already since I have to get up early to go to a horse show and I know I will feel like crap because I always feel like crap in the mornings so I don't want to get up in the morning because of so... my mind is running loose a bit now. I'll stop.

Sorry to see you like that. Hopefully it was just the meds talking and you'll feel better in the morning, eh?

3 or 4. Having friends is a weird feeling. Holden's words keep running through my mind. "Don't ever tell anybody anything. If you do, you start missing everybody."

Simon and Garfunkel, too. I've been a rock for so long. But when you start reaching out, inevitably you begin to form hopes and expectations. You know also, that people are forming their own ideas of what you might be, or ought to be, even if subconsciously. Will I disappoint? Will I be disappointed? Oh, of course I will. Of course.
