Friendship Board - Age 19 Onwards

Post Reply New Topic

Female, in my 20's, faithfully married. American living in Chiba (near Tokyo). Been in Japan almost 2 years. Tried teaching English but my social skills are quite unsettling for most students. Taking the JLPT N3 exam in December and looking for a job (part time to avoid burnout) that isn't as social outside of my coworkers. To be honest my special interest is the boy band Arashi, so if you like them please PM me. I used to live near Nagoya and my ex-coworker loved Arashi too and we even went to their concert together. If I could find another friend like that it would be awesome, but if you have different interests, it is cool too.

Male, in my 30's, from Canada. My interests are computers, coding languages, programming languages, and music: especially original scores from movies. I'm open to being friends with anyone, even people with different interests. I highly believe in this quote: united we stand, divided we fall.

Hi there
My name is Ebony and I am 23 from Western Australia. I work as a dog groomer and my interests include animals, psychology and art.. I am planning to study social work in the future. I am very open minded.. umm don't know what else to say really. Hi.

Hello, my name is n8. I am 23 yrs old and live in CA.

I enjoy watching movies, writing and reading books. If you want to be friends, just ask

In real life I don't relate to anyone. I know one person who is at least Allistic, and I relate with him more than the other NTs, but that's it.

hey! im Sean, im 19 years old (so just about old enough to fit here haha) i LOVE video games, im basically all about them and im pretty much only interested in them, despite how hard my parents have tried to get me interested in other things too haha. im a complete chatterbox, non-stop talking and talking and talking, so if you were to add me on steam or something id expect walls of text haha, in real life, im very quiet, i dont really talk at all (except to my family, who i talk alot to haha, imagine my walls of text, but in real life haha) i WAS supposed to be in uni, but i uhhh....never made it past the first night, too much change all at once and I meltdowned so now im at home....yeah......not good. but im going again next september but to a more local uni.


I live in North Yorkshire in England, so yeah, Brit here. not that proud of it though.

oh also in real life i dont have any friends, but luckily online i have a few i guess

Hello!

At the time of this writing, I am male, 25 and I come from Eastern Europe and speak 3 languages (okay, more like 2, but I understand 3).
Yes, it appears that I am also having Aspergers in a moderate form, and I often
find life to be extra difficult in part because of the limited social skillset.

Speaking of social skillset, I have learned to read body language fairly well, but I am yet to master
other social skills. Small talk is always an issue for me.
Incomplete set of social skills means I do not get along well with neurotypicals, and I have to admit that to reach
any kind of success in life, this has to change.

I always have a lot going on my mind, but I am never sure how to get things done. I have studied Architecture and
Programming, but again, one needs good social skillset to thrive in both of these career paths
In my free time I like watching a lot of Youtube videos and I sometimes also fly my racing quadcopter.

I have a feeling that I was simply born in a wrong century. I would do much better in hunter gatherer lifestyle

Feel free to pm if interested, it would be nice and probably benefitial to have a couple online friends.
I am looking for a good friendship, and, if you are a girl, you already know

Hi everyone. My name is Jay, and I'm a 24 y/o male* from the USA, specifically California (Bay Area represent!). I'm a card-carrying aspie with depression, anxiety, no friends and no real family to speak of and there's a strong possibility that I might have Borderline Personality Disorder. Also, I'm currently homeless. I know, I'd be envious too.

My main interests include psychology, literature, astrology, gaming and anime. I have a morbid sense of humor, I'm simultaneously too mean AND too nice, I adore animals (cats are my weakness), I hardly ever tell jokes or laugh yet I still have a tendency to laugh at my own jokes, I'm partial to pastel colors, I'm practicing mindfullness, I'm shy but I still talk too much, I'm an incorrigible perfectionist (I've already edited this post more than thrice lord help me), I like debating and arguing with myself, I obsess over EVERYTHING, my username is a song that's stuck in my head right now, I'm a huge weirdo, I am the embodiment of TMI (assuming you haven't noticed already), I complain too much and I sometimes have trouble believing I'm really in my mid-20s and not my early-60s (or that I'm an overgrown 6 y/o).

I'm pretty open-minded and (almost) literally nothing you can say will faze me, so any and all questions or PMs are welcome! I look forward to getting to know you fine people!

*not by choice

27-year-old Minnesotan, more solitary than not (like most here I'd assume :p). I still try to be friendly and sociable when I can, although most of the people I knew growing up have since drifted or moved overseas. Late 20's-30's are a hard time to make new friends which I was never that good at to begin with.

As for hobbies, I like writing, reading, animals and animal behavior, astronomy, and PC gaming. Currently reading Stephen King's Full Dark, No Stars.

Hi all, my name is Jesse. I joined this community a few years ago but my interaction has thus far been intermittent and scant, in large part due to my previous self conscious anxieties; however i've made noteworthy progress in that regard and inspite of my lingering self conscious tendencies, (a common struggle, I know.) want to engage more so with others on the spectrum or just in general.

I would say my interests are varied but a few I can narrow down perhaps... might be Theology, philosophy, history, humanities, a little bit of writing, sociology and psychology.

I used to be way into gaming, though that has waned in the recent years dramatically, though I still retain a casual interest perhaps, just not like I once was.

I enjoy analyzing people, ideas, cultures, I would say I could be a bit too philosophical and broody.... perhaps.

Anywho, I thought I'd put myself out there, I welcome any PMs and would love to get to know you all and participate more so in the community and understand new perspectives and struggles and to perhaps broaden my own and make new friendships.

Hi there! My name's Ashley. ^_^ I'm 19, transgender female, and I live in the state of Illinois, near the St Louis area. I'm kind of a nerd, especially when it comes to video games and animation. I'm also a writer, and like to think I'm pretty not bad at it. So if anyone wants to talk about any of the above, I'm your girl! I'm also really introspective and moody and soul searchy right now, so if anyone's looking for someone else to be those things with, I am too, haha. Hope to talk to some of you soon!

Hi, my name's Ruby, I'm 20 years old and I'm from England. I have a lot of interests, like Harry Potter, Star Wars, LOTR and The Hobbit, languages in general, astronomy, psychology and other things. I especially love learning about medicine and medical procedures!
I have a full time job and find it so difficult to communicate with my neurotypical co-workers! I just don't understand people and making friends is hard. My only friend is my boyfriend who is also autistic. I would like to make friends so feel free to pm if you want to chat, I like talking to people with any interests; even if I don't share the same interests as another person, I would like to learn about them

Hi everyone, my name is Ryan. I am 23 and I live in Atlantic Canada. I enjoy video games, old and new, music of all kinds (but mostly any subgenre of metal/alternative) and guitar. Other interests include basketball, The Walking Dead, and cats! (I love cats). If you have similar interests and/or just want to chat don't be shy Hoping to meet some new friends

Hello. I am a 51 year old man. I live with my wife and son in Alabama. I have difficulty making conversation, but I find writing a bit easier. I am hoping to make some friends here.

Hi my real name is Brittany and I hate my name. I am 20 years old I love Pokemon(nothing past alpha sapphire yet;cards and games), most video games, books, drawing, writing, and jogging. Everybody says I talk too much so I'm looking for friends to tell the stupid things that I think are funny to. I have an odd sense of humor. I have known about Asperger's since I was 14. Hoping to make friends

Hello I'm 27, male, and live about halfway between the triad and Charlotte in North Carolina.
Frankly I'm incredibly bored and would like more excuses to get out of the house and maybe even make a friend. I am down for pretty much anything.
