I Am Autistic And Lonely

Name: Lonely

Comments: I an an autistic adult male and very lonely. I have made many attempts to date women but we cannot seem to match up. Women are strange for me but yet I attracted to them. I don't know if I will find someone that is right for me.and who can accept me for who I am. The world focuses on ideals and less on love and caring so it is difficult to connect with someone.

Lonely, you are certainly right about a lot of things and you may be surprised to learn that it is true for neurotypical men too. All I can say is there is someone out there for you but they may not be easy to find and you may be looking in the wrong places. I suggest that when the pandemic is over you join a few groups that go out there and give service to people - this will broaden your network of people and help you to find those who are willing to do good. Besides that, have a peaceful day.

I Am Autistic And Lonely Health & Special Psychology

It breaks my heart to read things like this because it makes me think about my own child. What JB said is true, it can happen to all of us not just those on the autism spectrum. But live with the hope that there is someone out there for you its finding them that is the difficult part. Just keep building up yourself and you will eventually meet them.

As a fellow person who has Autism, I can feel with you on this subject, Lonely.

My advice is to focus on areas that make you happy. If you find interest in an activity, you may want to join a social group that has the same interests as you do. Bonding over a common interest with other people can act as a bridge to help you find friendships and commonality with other people.
