    Asperger's boyfriend is very inconsistent - help!

    Absolutely, I would only be discussing the behavior with him. I'm not interested in putting labels on him because I just don't know. And it really doesn't matter. I do want to make sure I am communicating to him without it seeming like I am criticizing him. I haven't needed to talk to anyone...

    Asperger's boyfriend is very inconsistent - help!

    Hi, thanks, but it's not an armchair diagnosis. This is what he told me. He repeated to me a situation in medical school that brought to light the fact that he was likely Asperger's. By the time he told me, I had thought to myself maybe he was. But I certainly did not give much weight to my...

    That is probably what it will come down to. This is probably just how he is, and cannot change.

    Asperger's boyfriend is very inconsistent - help!

    Thank you, yes I probably have to at this point just ask. What threw me off is that this second time dating, he talks about a future. He will talk about planning things for next year, and he will talk about the fact that both of us own a second home saying "we'll have four homes together"...

    Asperger's boyfriend is very inconsistent - help!

    I'm so glad I found this forum. I am a 50 year old divorced mom and I recently moved to a new state. I'm in the medical field, and shortly after I moved last summer, I met a physician through my job. He is in his early 60s, also divorced with kids. I found him to be extremely odd at first -...
