Making friends in general

Post Reply New Topic

I've had the same thing happen (out of sight, out of mind) with people from support groups. In my case it hasn't so much been my interests as their being just fair-weather, superficial, disposable friendships. I largely just seek the company of women now, since even in cases in which there is no chance of a relationship ever developing at least I might learn something about the female psyche which could prove useful later, whereas (having lost faith in friendship) men can only provide me with companionship (which women can also).
I'm stuck with NTs - I've only ever met one other aspie IRL (plus 2 other possible aspies) and we didn't have anything to talk about.

I have had a few friendships in my life, but I have blown them off after about a month or two. My mother is kind of concerned because she thinks that I am depressed. Well, maybe I am a little bit depressed since I am taking Cymbalta now. She is also concerned about my lack of interest in talking to other people and looking through people.
