    The Struggles of the NT Wife

    He is 47, almost 48. He is ASD1 for sure, I believe when he was young they simply didn’t know how to explain him, thought he might be gifted and somewhat ADHD...he was valedictorian in high school and college, and for an almost perfect score on the MCATS. He just has some specifics...

    There can be times when things get tough when you think they are just a dick, but really they aren’t. It good to see things through both lenses.

    I actually feel better about him and less judgmental now that I see the responses on here. I see the general similarities and that is helpful.

    The Struggles of the NT Wife

    It’s funny, your replies sound like something my spouse would say. They include assumptions of things I never said. I don’t need help with diagnosis, I know that already; I think I said that in my intro. I am here for support and perspectives. I don’t see him as a client; I would have left him...

    @Crossbreed I’m not sure I completely understand all of what you are saying...I am a therapist myself and do work with mental health daily. I have consulted with colleagues as well as doctors and psychiatrists about him. I believe what I see is simply neurodiversity, but I do see developmental...

    @Mia This is sooo incredibly true! My husband is NEVER brought me roses, or given me a card, or sentimental gift of ANY KIND. He finds holidays and birthdays completely ridiculous; it is very difficult to get him to even enjoy and collaborate in my own family's traditions, but he does it for...

    That sounds like a joke my husband would make:) It's really witty and funny, but hurtful at the same time; I reflect on it inside, that I must be a selfish person for wanting to feel differently than I do, for wanting things from him that, logically, he can't provide. Trust me, that is my first...

    I printed the Fair Fighting Rules and brought them home...these 30 on the link are better than the ones I have from my practice! Thanks for those:)

    The Struggles of the NT Wife

    I am currently taking medication for myself, and I do have an individual therapist. As a therapist myself, I know it is important. But these comments and feedback from other AS people are sooo helpful. This is something I was missing, is knowing what others in my situation were doing. I know...

    He used to say to be a lot “just let me reset.” I thought the comment was strange. He would tell me that, in a few minutes or even an hours he would “forget” an argument or fight and not be upset anymore. I could never comprehend it. I would remember things for years! This was another clue for...
