    A letter to you, my love

    I dreamed that I was in an apartment, in a building with glass walls, making breakfast for my kids. Suddenly someone calls me on the phone (I was wearing my Iphone’s headphones) and it was you. I get excited, happy, and move away from the kitchen, so no one can hear me. You talked to me, so...

    Having a hard time getting anyone's attention

    Hello. I'm female and in my early thirties, and I'm just having a hard time getting anyone to notice me in any way, including romantically. I'm straight, FYI, and even when I did get a guy's attention in my late twenties, they would never commit to me, even after three or six months of dating...

    Attraction to Obsession

    This has probably been posted so many times before by others, but a quick, lazy scan of the bored bore no fruit, so I figured I'd post it. The problem is going from attraction to obsession, faster than the speed of light. I used to think it was love at first sight, but it's more likely just a...

    Atypical

    Hey guys. Recently I watched the show Atypical, about Sam, who has Aspergers as well, trying to get a girlfriend. There is one scene where the popular kids are hanging out and Sam notices that the popular girl kissed 2 different boys on consecutive days. He then says a lot of things I would have...

    My kid’s meltdown

    After a thread posted by @Voltaic, where he asked if people in this forum loved themselves, I wrote a blog post saying that my main goal as a mom was to love my kids and teach them to love themselves. Two days later, my seven-year old son spent like an hour screaming, pacing around with his...

    I have the most important job in the world

    I read a simple question in a thread here in AspiesCentral: ‘Do you love yourself?’ ‘What kind of question is that? Of course I do’, was my immediate thought. Unfortunately, most people answered either ‘no’ or ‘yes except’. I was appalled. I haven’t always had the best self-esteem. Just this...

    Successful therapy in Aspie/NT's relationships

    Years ago, my husband and I attempted therapy several times with different therapists in order to help our marriage. The first was a Catholic marriage counselor, in fact a priest, who advised us on our marriage. He seemed more concerned with church doctrine that our marriage. The second was a...

    Aspies with Mentally Different Partners

    I couldn't come up with the correct word for it, but what I mean is aspies with partners who are also not neurotypical. My fiancé has schizophrenia for example. Of course, we have our relationship problems as we both demand a lot of attention and support from the other, and this can lead to some...

    Recent break-up with Aspie, looking for advice?

    Hi all, I would love some advice. I apologize if I say anything incorrect, I'm a little out of my realm here (and still hurting a bit). I had been dating an aspie for about 7 months (I'm NT). Some of our relationship could be rocky because he would pull away or our communication could be...
