I have Aspergers but I don't let that stop me from meeting anyone new.

I don't think it's as simply as 'letting it stop you.'
If the problems that people face because of Aspergers were that easy to overcome then nobody on here would be in that situation. Also, AS wasn't the only reason she gave, she said she had problems meeting people because of where she lives among others.
It's good for you that you've managed to meet people, but for some of us it's a lot harder than that.

When you're 15, you should never say never. That's one of the things I've learned. You have many years left in which you might be pleasantly surprised by what happens.

On topic, I have similar problems with meeting people. It's hard going out, especially when you have AS, don't go to school, don't socialise offline at all, your parents don't let you go out perhaps, and you don't have any friends in the first place.

Yeah, the only way I've ever met people is through other people. So if I don't already know anyone, then it's difficult to meet new people

I doubt it, you'll meet friends soon enough.

Being weird is appealing to some people.

I agree. I have lots of friends and most of them are also weird. They like me because of my weirdness, not in spite of it.

How long has it been since you left school?
