    Robot or aspie human? Help, please!

    I mean this in the most loving way possible, and I know I need to say that since it could be taken the wrong way given where I am . I'm trying to decide if my guy is just a blunt, sorta rude jerk that thinks he's better than everyone else, who has no feelings or emotions, and can't process that...

    The empty love tank of a failed relationship

    I’m separated and so are you. I want to move forward, start anew. You want your wife to continue fighting. But she just can’t. She doesn’t have any strength left. You see me and you see your wife. You see my ex and you see yourself. You want me to go back to him, because that’s what you...

    BF disputes EVERYTHING I say

    I'm looking for feedback on communication with my bf. He disputes much of what I say. It feels like it’s CONSTANT and it wears me down. Like can’t you just say “uh huh” and move on in the convo? I thought aspies were ultra- logical, but half the time I can’t figure out where he’s coming...

    What would treatment look like for HFA?

    I recently got out of a complicated relationship with a girl and she recommended I get counseling because she thinks I'm on the Autism/Asperger's spectrum. She has a degree in counseling, which is probably why she was able to recognize symptoms in me. Her description of Asperger's made a lot of...

    NT husband here looking for some clarification

    I apologize if this is long and unorganized. My wife of 5 years was diagnosed with Asperger's last year. A few months ago she started putting a lot of time and attention into her friends...well one friend specifically. I questioned her about it and she denied that there were any feelings...

    The life-saving search for beauty of creative people

    Sopranos and tenors always make my soul soar. Right now, the owner of the incredible voice that I’m listening to is Katherine Jenkins. There’s magic in the melody, but there’s something even transcendental when one understand the lyrics. French, Italian, Spanish, and even English, transmit a...

    My mom's narcissistic mask

    I look fine, really. Actually, I'm so resilient than even I don't see my own psychological wounds. But they are there, and they are still bleeding. When my mom and dad came to visit us during the holidays, I noticed that my mom looked significantly older than the last time that I saw her. She...

    Can You Tell Me What This Means?

    My friend (who's INTJ/possible aspie) & I were chatting the other day. During a conversation about our relationship he said "I'd totally 100% share my food with you." What do you think that means? (Aside from the fact he wouldn't let me starve to death :))

    Should I Give Up On My Aspie Husband?

    Hi All, I'm new here. I have a 13-year-old son who was diagnosed with ASD when he was 5. His dad and I divorced in 2012, initiated by me, because of lack of communication and emotional intimacy. We had been together for 12 years, married for 8. He's a great guy. Reliable, honest, trustworthy...

    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...

    Feeling ugly

    I’m very emotional. I separated from the person that was my couple for 18 years (married for fifteen years). I connected the dots of what was going on this week. I was disappointed. All these years looking for a reason. Elaborating the most complicated theories. And the answer is so vulgar, so...

    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...

    Can feelings change?

    Hello everyone. I am looking for some insight into my previous relationship. I am an NT and my partner was an aspie. We didn't work out. He told me he was not the right guy for me, and he could not give me what I wanted. He said sharing a bed was too hard for him. I tried to respect that the...

    Do you find yourself to be paranoid at times?

    Want to know if it's common amongst aspies and what do you do to cope? It's not too often that I get paranoid, it seems to come in waves. I tell myself that I am being silly but that does nothing. I trust my husband but lately I have been getting a sinking feeling when I see him texting and I...

    Can your partner help during a meltdown?

    I'm curious about this. My boyfriend is often anxious to help me out when I'm experiencing a meltdown, and I saw @RiverSong post in another topic about her boyfriend wanting to help during a meltdown as well. For me, personally, when I experience a meltdown I cry, I hyperventilate and my...

    Aspie relationship issues, trying to understand and be supportive

    Hey Guys I'm new on the forum and I've mainly joined because I've been in a relationship with a wonderful girl for the past year who has Asperger's but more recently I feel like I am probably not supporting her the way she needs. We have been struggling a lot recently, she has started a new...
