[QUOTE="deleted user 436632456, post: 7216519, member: 151698"] This sounds so familiar to my little brother, really struggled to make "real" friends. He struggles with asperger syndrome and is socially awkward, but get him on the PC with the headset.. he's a different person, chats daily with gamers from around the world. But the problem with that is.. he still has no real friends, no one that he can go out on a sat night with anyway, it's something I worry about. He seems happy but I know he's a mid 20's good looking fit lad, should be out on running after girls, not sitting with a headset on every night of the week. Is funny you said that his older brother is his best friend, I would have been my little brothers best friend when growing up but he defiantly wasn't mine (Something I regret looking back, I really should have made more of an effort to include him). When the whole Covid thing is over, get him to join as many clubs as possible. Is there running & mountain biking clubs in your area? Even scouts or duke of Edinburgh? Even if he's playing with the lads from school on a online multiplayer, is that really such a bad thing? (In moderation) At least he is interacting with them. [/QUOTE]
