Hi everyone. My name is Matthew. I?m 21 years old and I?ve just finished my time at the University of Leeds and I have Aspergers. I?m glad that I have found this website, as this will allow me to talk to other people my age who have Aspergers. What I want to get out of joining this website is to be able to talk and socialise with people who have Aspergers. Does anybody know of any services for people with Aspergers in Leeds? Thank you.

Hi. Welcome to WP. I am American, so I can't help you with stuff in Leeds, but I just want to say Congrats on finishing college! It must be a great accomplishment. I am 18 and you can call me Faye although it's not my real name. I don't give my real name on here. :D

I got my degree in IT. Also, I?ve set up a social group on Facebook for people who are in Leeds called Aspies in Leeds. If you know anybody who is in Leeds, who has Aspergers, please tell them about it. Which part of America are you from Faye?

Hello, Matthew!

I hope your local Facebook page grows quickly.

BTW, "Go Rhinos!"

Make sure that you spread the word of it because it would be good to talk to other people in and around Leeds who have Aspergers.

Is New England a nice place or are there nicer places in the US? I?ve always wanted to go to Memphis, Texas and Tennessee. Have you been to any of those places?

There's a guy in Newcastle named AutisticGuy1981. Maybe you could contact him.

New England is a beautiful place. Boston is its biggest city. Lots of great natural scenery.

Memphis is in the state of Tennessee.

Hi & Welcome,

You came to the right place to find others on the Spectrum. Hope you have good conversations and such.

This may sound a bit strange, but are there people with aspies who are into weightlifting because I do that myself about 4-5 times a week at the gym?
