| If openness is what you value most, then perhaps (after the pandemic is over with) you should seek out a local in-person autistic/Aspie support group and try to make friends there. Hmm definitely I'll see it could be an eye opener for me Some autistic/Aspie adult support groups are currently holdin... |
