Anyone here from Birmingham looking to maybe start a social circle or something?

Hi, just wondered how many people here were from Birmingham? I'm looking to make friendships with other people with aspergers, to this day i haven't ever met another single person in the flesh with aspergers or, and it would be nice...i also want to look for a relationship but only with a girl with aspergers or autism, i've given up on having relationships with NT girls.. give me a shout if your from birmingham, cheers Ben

Have you looked on the NAS website to see if they run anything in your area? I'm sure there must be something for autistic/Asperger adults in a city the size of Birmingham!

 

How do you know that you would get on better with an autistic girl than an NT girl? You could end up with double the communication problems!

Hi again, i've never looked on the nas site to tell you the truth, just had a little look and looks good, i'll look more into it a little later on.

You could be right but with an NT girl there is always something lacking, i can't explain but it just doesn't feel right. I never actually told any of my past girlfriends i even had aspergers i just put it down to depression because i was a bit ashamed at the time. Funnily enough after my diagnosis i wasn;t even aware of my problems at all for a few years until up to 18, i had some bad experiences and i think i became more conscious of me as a whole and i haven't been quite the same since. I had a fair few relationships from ages 13-18 but haven't since, probably because i'm ultra defensive and have very little trust in the average person. But i would like to find a girl with the same issues because i think 2 people can fight better than 1, and if both going through the same can help and push each other, thats why i'd like to look for a girl who sees the world like i do now, i don't know you could be right but i'll never know until i experience it (if i ever do)
