Often seen some of you out and about but have been unable to go over and to you and it can really annoy me.Can be easier if your with someone, like last week when we spoke to that guy at Park Lane, I introduced us and you seemed fine, so being with someone would go a long way to helping you talk to people...I mean you did not say 3 words to me for at least 15 minutes lol, but we ended up having a laugh, I never expected you to know how to laugh
Seriously, joking aside, I would like to l think you could comfortable enough around me if I was introducing you to people or at least standing by to kinda help you...if that makes sense...
While I am not autistic myself, I know what it is like to feel uncomfortable I'm society, my own depression has led me to lose trust in people, I was bullied, nearly to death, at school, so sometimes found it hard to talk to people, in fact when I was 15, I only had 3 friends at School, and 3 friends who were bus drivers.
JUST REMEMBER THIS JIMMI...I CAN AND WILL HELP YOU OUT AND LOOK AFTER YOU WHEN THE CHANCE ARISES

Then when I was really down last October, I ended up watching a few episodes of My Little Pony and well became hooked. Ended up playing the card game that came with it too and also met my partner thanks to the show.
My Little Pony...I remember that when I was a kid...My sister used to like it and I liked things He-Man and The Turtles, might look to My Little Pony or something like that myself and see if I can pull...sounds like it was a godsend, so to speak
