There is a big challenge involved when people with ASD have friends. Some NTs find it hard to believe that, often one of the most difficult things about having and being a friend, is the keeping in touch part. Sometimes, the meeting up part is actually easier than the keeping/staying in touch process we have to go through in between(!).

There are several main reasons for this, shown in the diagram below.
