    Boyfriend fixated on food and exercise

    Geez. It took me forever to figure out how to post a new thread. Okay. Any feedback on this would be greatly appreciated. I suspect my boyfriend is HFA. He has a good number of ASD traits. One thing I didn't see was a hyper-focus or fixation on a particular subject, UNTIL the other night he...

    Scared to go on first date

    Okay, I think I know what I'm going to do, but I still want some advice and opinions. I had another forum earlier about dating but this one's a little different. Basically, there's this guy I've liked for two years, and we've been good friends for those two years, and we finally decided to go...

    Dating man with ASD traits. When/if to broach the subject?

    I just posted a very long narrative about a specific incident I had recently with my boyfriend of 7 months. I have a hard time describing in words my experience with him. I love him very much. He is kind, caring, and loyal. We have ongoing communication problems,usually that end up with me...

    Could my boyfriend have Aspergers?

    The guy I've been seeing has a very unusual way of communicating. In person or on text he will not engage in normal conversation, there's never really any "hi, how are you?", he will just vomit up a torrent of highly detailed but uninteresting (to me) information about very specific subject...

    relationships

    Even though I have Aspergers I can say that I have been in a couple "long" term relationships. However I ended both for different reasons. The first boyfriend I had was very insecure and extremely immature despite being five years older me. I broke up with him during my first semester of my...

    How to know if my aspie fwb wants more?

    Hi all, I'm an NT for the most part (never been tested and have a history of aspergers/autism plus some mild tendencies I've noticed in myself, so could be either way). I have a friend (with high-functioning aspergers or autism, not 100% sure) whom I play in a music group with, who I've had a...

    Not sure if I should date.

    I've been very anxious lately. There's a guy I've liked for like 2 years and we're good friends and hang out sometimes. Sometimes I go a bit far in my Aspie fantasies and think waaaay into our future even though we're not even dating. Problem is, I like him, and yet I feel like I don't want to...
