I don't. I treat everyone in a friendly way, but I learned as a child that most people aren't going to share my interests, nor I theirs. When things fall together and I do meet someone with similar interests then that's just a nice bonus.
I have a few friends that have accumulated over the years. The one who I have known the longest is another autistic person, though I only learned that after I was diagnosed earlier this year. He was diagnosed about 10 years ago. When I told him about me, he said he had known for years I was autistic, but hadn't felt it was his business to tell me.
