A question for my autistic friends. Many autistic people struggle with social interactions and forming relationships, which is why they often feel lonely and isolated. I’d be interested to know how you usually go about making new connections, whether they’re friendships or romantic relationships.

I’d appreciate it if you could boost this so we can get more responses. 🙏🏻

I'm not great at friendships. Do I have friends? Yes. I now do, but I don't see them that often. Friendship is mysterious to me.

On the romantic front, all my relationships started online. Yes, even with my ex-wife. It was in 1996, and we used email. I also met my boyfriend online, on OkCupid. For romantic relationships, I now use dating apps. All dating apps are crappy, but Feeld is the least crappy of the bunch, as far as I am concerned.
