I'm in a similar situation. I'm also in a town where I have no friends and I can only keep in touch with the friends I have via Facebook, and then a handful by other methods. My brother is also ASD and Facebook is his preferred communications medium. I really wonder if I'll ever hear from him again if Facebook goes down. He's never once called me or emailed me and I don't know his phone number or email address.
