I think that North Americans are more friendlier socialable to strangers. In England you have to break into someones tightly net group to get somewhere. Unless you spend your loads of time at your local pissup, finding a friend is hard.

I think that if America is sh***y for an aspie, I can imagine it being easier to make a friend then in england

My experience has been the other way around, that Brits are more tolerant of eccentricity and less likely to try to dictate to you how to live. In my experience, most Americans are friendly but in a more superficial way.

I can't remember where i read it but I remember people saying about aspies preferring the very eccentric British humor, so it does logically follow that eccentrics are better accepted in Britain
