I am an 41 year old single man with Asperger's and major social issues. My story is complex but I first came to God and Christianity when I was 22 years old. I was majorly depressed and going though issues. I found a great church and started going to groups. I was "born again" at 23 years old. It was great for a few years even getting a job. My heart was not bitter anymore.
First I lost my only job I ever had after which it went downhill. Well after like everything else in my life my so called friends started to couple up even saying that they rather hang out with couples. So they went from "friends" to "acquaintances" In 2004 I stopped going to the church completely but still went to a new group the church had. Of course all I had were "acquaintances" so after 2006 I left completely being bitter with God finally giving me what I wanted just to take it all back again so I did not want to bother.
I have not been to the church, prayed or anything since there. I had/still have "no friends" since then. Matter of fact now that I am 41 going on to 42 in a couple of months I have been very depressed. I am trying to get into Christ again very hard as I also have a major meltdown social issue if possible I will link here "mods can remove if so but please don't".
Anyway I am worse off now. At least in my 20's there were people to hang out. Now that I am a middle aged nobody who in my mid to late 30's and early 40's to hang out with. Church groups are for the young. Also even being able to speak to people is terrifying enough. Then again God gives and takes away I don't know if I can go though that again.
Thanks.
