This is hard to do but, are any other women on the spectrum looking for a friend? I'm 34, a SAHM and I live in Mountain View.

Years ago I visited Jamaica. When nice local people greeted me, to show they were nice they would say "respect", but with an emphasis on the first syllable, like "REE-spect". That's what I want to say to you for posting this. REspect, mon.

I think this is the first time I’ve ever gotten angry about a downvote.

tinyegg, I think it was an exemplary and inspirational action, and I hope your seed of courage bears fruit. Although it might be practical to add contact info to your profile :)

And be careful when communicating with and/or meeting the strangers who contact you. They might not be who they purport to be.
