I feel the same way!! And I'm not even a jock any more.
Please don't beat yourself up. You KNOW that Aspie kids can be like that. My mother was always distant, likely for the same reason. Just keep hugging him anyway, and he will come around. Do yo make him look you in the eye? I do with my son. In fact, the book "Look Me in the Eye" is very enlightening, written by an Aspie raised in a totally screwed up family [his father was an alcoholic, IIRC].
