Hiya I'm new here! My name is Cameron and I'm 24 years old and was diagnosed with autism when I was young. I'm quite a shy person at first but open up once you get to know me. I'm a non practising Christian and I'm unemployed. I like gaming, anime, manga, music and Youtube. I also like the weirder side of life such as mysteries and conspiracy type stuff as I find it all really fascinating. Overall I hope to enjoy my stay here!

Welcome to WP! I think you can find a few distractions here.

In another post, you wrote:

Hiya so my main obsession in life is having a girlfriend as I love the idea of sharing my time with somebody and snuggling up to them. However the problem is that I can't really date and this obsession is getting in the way of me actually making friends. Like I don't have really any life skills and can't go out on my own independently let I still want to date somebody even though I'm not ready for it. It makes me frustrated that I cant find somebody as my grandparents won't let me go on dating sites because of the cost, the fact that I'm not ready and I might get taken advantage of and in terms of meeting people around my area there's not really any places to go. I just want love so bad even though I'm not ready for it. Sorry if this post seemed like a lot rambling but I just wanted to get this problem off my chest.

So you are 25 years old, living with your grandparents, unemployed and want to have a girl friend.

Many times a boy and girl meet, fall in love, have sex and then comes children. If you are unemployed, it is extremely difficult for you to raise a family. I understand why your grandparents are discouraging this.

But if this is what you want, here is the main approach. First, Get a Job. You need to work and become self sufficient. You need to earn enough money to support yourself, your future wife and any children that may come your way.
