My mom thinks that I should have friends who have autism [I Live With Autism]

I have autism. I don’t have alot of friends since many of my friends from college don’t seem to talk to me. I thought I was popular from I’m not.

I asked mom for help and she suggested that I find friends who have disabilities as I do. I feel like she hurt my feelings. I do have autism but I am more than capable of being around typical people. I’m not that stupid!

My parents never said that to me, but they say is nice to have some people that I can relate to. most of my childhood friends I grew up with are on the Spectrum. and I have a friend that has has autism too. I also have friends that are not autistic. I've had my fair share of being left out and some people acting like they don't know me.
