Loneliness Support Group

Loneliness is an emotional state in which a person experiences a powerful feeling of emptiness and isolation. Loneliness is more than the feeling of wanting company or wanting to do something with another person. Loneliness is a feeling of being cut off, disconnected and alienated from other people.

I recently lost my only friend we have been friends for a few years, she has been very nice to me and has been in the same boat as me for being thrown away, well recently she can't stand me like everyone does eventually. no friends, loser, antisocial, dealing with nasty problems by myself including an abusive family. I don't understand why I'm disliked so much.

Use this time to better yourself, hit the gym, practice talking to people, study something you enjoy. No matter how hopeless it feels right now you gotta remember that if you put yourself out there you won't be alone forever. Someone will like you and want to be friends. Seriously it will happen it will just take time. If people don't want to hang with you
fuck em, their loss.

Have you attempted to contact her? It may be just some misunderstanding, e.g., she took out-of-context something you said. At the very least she owes you an explanation.

It may not be that she dislikes you. She could be going through something that she hasn't or can't explain just yet, It may have nothing to do with you at all. Maybe you could just let her know that you are there for her, if she needs you. And then try to busy yourself taking care of your own needs. Be yourself and LIKE yourself. You will make friends. It takes time.

You live in Fresno and you are on the autistic spectrum. There is a big Aspergers group in San Francisco on Meetup.com, and I know of at least one member who visits from Fresno.

I've visited that group a number of times, despite not being officially diagnosed with Aspergers, simply because of similarities between those people's childhoods and mine.

I have to tell you, the issues you describe are not uncommon. People often share in that group things that are similar in nature. Or even worse.

It's easy for Aspergers people to be misunderstood, to be thought of as "jerks", "inconsiderate", "unemotional", while in reality you are anything but.

Also consider taking up a traditional martial art like Aikido or Wing Chun. The training protocol is structured, which makes it easy to be around people, without having to chit-chat with them in freeform manner (the ultimate Aspergers nightmare). I found that kind of "limited contact" to be very helpful.
