Why does nobody ever click with me?

So I have autism and I am 21 years old. Over my entire life, I have never had a friend. Neither in elementary, nor middle school, nor high school. Now I began college and again, I talked to all my classmates (even asked them questions about themselves) and spent a lot of time with them and so on, we seemed to have lots of fun on parties and at school. But the next day, they always ended up treating me as a stranger again and I ended up making no friends there at all. Same thing with clubs and hobbies, I only ever end up with acquaintances when I go there. Usually when I talk about it with people such as my therapist etc, they end up saying stuff like "you're not going to be everybody's friend" and "they might not click with you". But following this perspective, NOBODY IN THIS UNIVERSE clicks with me. Just absolutely nobody. And it feels so bad knowing that I will never have a friend group to travel with, discuss things with, nothing.

Honestly I feel you, I really struggle too and i’m 18. I’ve never clicked with anyone throughout school. I have one good friend, and when i (thought) that i found a good friend group at the end of 2022, they turned horrible in mid 2023. They’d ditch me on nights out while they got taxi home and all sorts. So I feel you, even though our situations aren’t entirely the same.

It’s really hard but you will find some friends at some point. If you’re at university, I would recommend joining societies, a few will help get to know a broad range of people. It’s a hard thing that you have to push for, go out your comfort zone and ask to meet up with people and text them on a semi regular basis, if they don’t reciprocate you know to leave it. I can’t suggest much else as it’s something I struggle with a lot too but just push yourself out your comfort zone rather than hiding in the shadows socially.
