Hi there,
Just introducing myself. I am a 41 year old male (chronologically speaking - maturity level is probably less than half though :wink: ) who has stumbled across this board.

I have not been formally diagnosed, however the more I read and reflect, the more I am convinced that I may very well sit somewhere on the spectrum. It would certainly go a long way to explain the trajectory of my life, and why my thought processes differ from the NT. It is a relief to find that there is explanation.

I guess more than anything, I am looking to make friends as well. I will do my best to not just lurk - I will hopefully be able to contribute somewhat.

Thank you AuroraBorealisGazer - it was given to me by a friend after I managed to consume a packet of rice crackers in his company, without making any sound...

Welcome to WP!

As near as I can tell, the locals are friendly.

And you can probably figure out for yourself how serious and somber they are.

You do see the odd handmade teddy pop up at a local craft market from time to time but it's not considered politically correct...
