I found the huge boost to making friends has been...
Losing the mask and befriending autists.
Ta da!

Sure, some autists are asshats, but they seem to reveal that fairly early, and the ones who aren't are pretty damn awesome.
Good Lord it is nice having friends who don't mock my traits, or take my overwhelm or lack of eye contact as some sort of person insult.
