    I love him but I don't understand him

    Hi, me again. I'm an NT and I have fallen hopelessly in love with an AS. He has shown me incredible depth and intimacy. I am so enamoured with him. But his affections are fleeting and he quickly sequesters himself afterwords. I strive to be patient and understanding. I know that he NEEDS his...

    I'm new here, please be gentle. I have a question about my relationship (former relationship, actually). I was dating someone who I suspect is on the spectrum. We met at the gym and I still see him there. He exhibited some peculiar behavior that I couldn't quite understand. He is extremely...
