AndrewJ

I learned a few things which helped me. 1) I tend to stick to bars which draw the nicer crowd, not those in my local area which draws planks. 2) I watched people for a long while, god people must've thought I was a mute but i watched how people interacted and have slowly built up how to handle most social situations, if not I think I am getting good at coping.

Poor lad, while they refuse to admit it, often popping to a Pets At Home to view some animals tends to help them get over it and focus on owning something new.

Thanks for the welcome.

Hi all, Found this place after a search on Google, I'm Andrew 24 from the Manchester area. I was diagnosed in 1992 with AS. And have spent most of my years learning social skills from my friends. I think I am quite unusual in that I live with no routine as such to the AS type, and I enjoy going out to bars and relaxing with friends. I am currently planning on moving to Scotland and plan to take up the violin in Irish style in a local music school to Dumfries. Anyways nice to meet you all and I hope to be able to help out with the technical sections
