Here is a few pointers that will improve anyone's life

1.) Friends are there because of common interests and for spying on one another to succeed in the mating game
2.) Nobody gives a damn about you, except your relatives
3.) The educational system is to develop marketable skills to compete in the job market. Once you graduate and get the right job, to succeed all you need is do is to do the job the explicit way the boss wants, without complaint and get paid for you. You are there because the boss dosen't have the time, money or energy needed to do it himself/herself
4.) NTs will never accept Aspies. We do not follow their social norms. Develop our own society
5.) NTs talk about independent living in the context of Aspies, but themselves are never entirely independent. First, when they are born, they are dependent on their parents, later their teachers, then their employers, then the government for retirement money

I will post more later because I have to go.

And even that isn't necessarily true. And sometimes the only reason your relatives give a damn is nothing to do with your welfare, and everything to do with how you reflect on their precious reputations by dint of being related to them.

Boze, these are your opinions - not facts, not truths. At best, one might call them personal truths... and I'm afraid I do not seek to share them with you if these are how you base your perspective. There are a few things I wanted to comment on, though...

Friends are transient, not permanent; perhaps we ought to examine our expectations first before throwing away their value.
Your relatives don't necessarily give a damn about you, either.
The educational system... is broken, at least from the PoV of someone who worked in it awhile. However, I've rarely worked in the environment you've described, whether in education or in the corporate sphere.
You're stereotyping with the use of "NTs will never accept aspies" and dead wrong in my opinion; substituting personal feeling or experience for fact does nothing except ensure that one stays in the same place instead of moving on.

All humans depend on their nurturing caregivers for the first few years of life. Humans are born helpless.

Only a few humans have been able to survive all by themselves. Humans naturally form societies for trade and mutual protection. Man is a social animal, be he NT or Apie.

True hermits are extremely rare.

That's what I can't STAND about NT girls ... and grown women too! That "pairing-off" nonsense like they're going to die if they have to stand alone! Then they back-stab each other as soon as they get the chance. Always stiffin' at each other's arses until one of them gets married...or they all have illegitamate kids at the same time so they can play house...how cute. :x
