Not being able to make friends is frightening me

Joe90,
Without over thinking and without all the psycho-babble . . . we like you.
Can we be your friends?
We are all weird, but - we are all human too.

how to fix "failure to thrive"?

@cyberdad.. allow me to extrapolate here : being the son of a Owner of a possibly successful
Emerald mine Owner . Does not give Elon any advantage , Even though his situation allowed him to be able to emigrate from So Africa to the USA , And whatever connections his father may have had
to get him in a position to do this . And suppose previous gem mine owner , Might not have generated contacts worldwide .? Well am glad you have a unassuming point of veiw about Dear Elons , self made man ideas . But based on what you have written , You inadvertantly diminished ,what little
belief , i had in Elons , self made man concept .
But thank you very much for agreeing with my concepts . but your post does seem to me to be that of a extrapolation made by a person who might have a basis of a veiw point of a lifelong NT persons understandings . This is merely my interpetations of what you wrote. no offense intended.

unless its on the board in public

^ eba - um - kidding right?

am suspicious that society , sets some people up for failure ...i think some people wear out themselves , believing in a cause or feeling a sense of duty. And this country uses them up .
Then disregards them after that. But wishes too make the appearances of caring for them.
Even employing thousands to make a good show of it . And even some of those folks , do make efforts to give aid . Even though the system is messed up . But its quality of life issues as a person
goes on in life. That is the issue, i feel .

I just feel angry because one of my cousins should have Asperger's but she doesn't because she's always been average at making friends.

Why me? Why just me? I should not be the only one with it, somebody else in my family should have it too.

I'm hoping that I might not qualify for autism any more under the new DSV5 or whatever it's called. It's no good hoping my cousin is on the spectrum when she's has less traits than I do. So the next best hope I've got is that I'm not on the f*****g spectrum either.

i think at a certain age it( the diagnosis) just does not have the same outcome on a persons overall life as they become older. Whatever the outcome of your tests joe90, i hope you can still move forward in your life.
