Yes, the advice is neurotypical because that's how I am, so sorry if it doesn't apply to you completely. I'm no expert on everything, so if you have additional requirements to social interaction, you'll have to consult with somebody who knows instead of me.

That said, surely the following are true regardless:

  • You can't make friends with people you don't interact with.
  • Meeting people in the same hobby as you means you automatically have some common ground.
  • It's easier to make friends with someone you have common ground with.

Also, I've never met a person who's unlikable to everyone. Don't sell yourself short.
