So I used to be a complete /r9k/ type autist but I decided to improve some things in my life and now I'm trying to adjust to actually having friends, social life etc.
I met some people recently, we hang out, had a good time etc. then I texted one of the guys in the group again and we ended up hanging out a few more times.
What concerns me is that I'm the one initiating it every time. How do I know I'm not just being annoying by asking him if he wants to hang out again?

Well hang out with some others of the group or the whole group again. He wouldn't hang out with you if you were bad company but if he doesn't initiate I'd cool down my efforts
Fellow autist here. You will never know. Every single interaction can be interpreted as indifference or even hatred, so its best to just trust the good in people, even if it isn't real. The only things you can truly count on are your mind and your body.

Social interaction must be extremely stressful for you

The group is unlikely to all get together, we all met because of some job related training stuff (we work at different places though). I might try texting other people but the guy I mentioned before is the person I seem to get along best with and he happens to live the closest too.

My mind fails me often when it comes to figuring out how people feel about me.

It is but you take what you can get. In my case trust is literally trust, I assume you want the best for me even though theres evidence to the contrary. Either that or everyone literally hates me and I shouldve killed myself long ago, but they keep telling me thats not the case soooo yeah i dont actually know
