I have 3 friends at my school, and 2 back home in Houston, and one in Minnesota (my ex).

And several others online.

I really only have one true friend, and I've lost contact with her. Hopefully I'll regain it ASAP (aka when I leave).

But I have quite a few aquantinces (spelling err, sorry). Out of forced contact, really... D:

I'd say approx 20 friends I do things with on a regular basis (who live near me), about another 10 really close friends who live in places I used to live, who I keep in contact with and visit when I can. (not counting internet friends here, not sure how many internet friends i have in total).

Acquaintances who I can chat to: Many. Too many to count.

People who know my name: No idea how many, though you get the idea when I say that at least once a day someone whom I don't even recognize greets me by name. I feel incredibly guilty every time. There's also loads of people who I know by sight who know my name but I don't know theirs. I know very few people by name really, because I have real difficulty in remembering names (I mean this seriously, I don't know if other aspies have this problem to the same extent as I do).

Pretty much the majority of students in college (there's about 400 college students living here) know me for a singer and song writer because I performed one of my pieces at a dinner earlier in the year and won $50! :D)

AHH! Bees scare me.

Not as much as they used to tho; my mother is really into gardening and bees swarmed around my house so I sorta had to overcome my phobia.

As for friends, in real life, I have 2 or 3 close friends.
I have hundreds of aquaitences, but that's out of forced contact, really.
