I feel you so much that it’s hard to make friends. But it is possible if you actively pursue it and seek it out (I always have to start convos and know I won’t connect with every single person I talk to), Signed an obese autistic person with friends of every genre.

Fat. Autistic. And have mostly Irish and Scottish ancestry (my blushes can be seen from space and they happen a lot). It’s not down to you being fat or autistic that you struggle making friends. Maybe you don’t have a big enough pool of options or maybe youre trying with the wrong people but this would be something really good to talk to a therapist about. They could help you learn to socialize, sometimes it’s as easy as just saying hi to the right kind of person that fits you.

then it’s definitely not over! i found a lot of my friends through fiber arts and rocky horror and i never thought it would be possible. im disabled, wear a mask everywhere i go, and have such limited energy that i drop off the face of the planet unexpectedly. still they reach out to me and invite me places and i cant believe it sometimes but its real

i saved up energy to go to fiber arts stitch and bitches and also attended several rocky horror productions. went enough times (maybe 3-5?) and then people saw me and i saw them. tried my best to socialize and eventually people liked my vibe enough to strike up conversations and invite me to after parties, then casual hangouts before the event, to completely unrelated events. at this point we’ve been friends for like 3 years and i make friends through friends!
