Neurodiverse City Connection
Empowering Autistic Adults to Unmask and Connect Authentically
If you're Autistic (self-diagnosed or professionally) and looking for friends or a relationship, you are not alone!!!
Over the past six years of my career, I’ve had the privilege of working with countless autistic adults, and one thing comes up again and again: the deep desire for genuine connection. Just like anyone else, autistic adults want meaningful friendships and relationships—but finding them can sometimes feel overwhelming or isolating.
That’s why I created a dedicated Facebook community—an inclusive space where autistic adults can connect, whether they’re looking for friendship, dating, or both. My hope is that as the group grows, it becomes a welcoming place where authentic connections naturally blossom.
I’ll also be sharing details there about upcoming autistic speed dating events and friend-matching opportunities, so members can meet others in fun, low-pressure ways.
Autistic Dating Struggles
Dating can be really overwhelming and confusing. There aren’t clear rules, and first dates often come with a lot of unknowns. What should you ask them? How do you know if they’re interested in what you’re sharing? Are they attracted to you? And how do you avoid those long, dreadful, awkward silences?
