One self-advocate mentioned that she was able to eventually establish friendships, particularly with highly extroverted people. I guess bubbly personalities are infectious across all personality types! - Mae Hi Elise:

Now I know that my oldest is lonely and would like some friends. We try to help him and suggest clubs to join at school and give him therapy. It does break your heart. But atleast we are there for him and can provide him the support he needs. I always worried when my children were little what they were thinking and if they were happy.

When we do fun activities or go on vacation I wonder if he had a good time. It is hard to tell if he did because he does not show his feelings. Years later and out of the blue he recalls our "adventures" fondly and all my doubts are totally forgotten. :) I wonder if MONK is happy as well.
