Contact an ex with autism?

[Cqualt]

Just curious as I've heard and researched many different answers

I have so many questions unanswered or lost for answers

Someone with autism is it easy for them to break a relationship?

If wanting to reconcile with an ex with autism should I wait until I hear from them, or should I contact them to show I care and want to try?

If someone with autism do they move on from a break up quickly?

When I am done with something or someone, I am DONE. Approaching me after the fact will earn you some salty language and hard feelings. Not sure if others are like me, but that's how I would handle an ex coming back. My view is they're an ex for a reason and let's keep things that way.

l still have feelings for a ex who may have similarities to ASD. And l was learning emotional regulation. They were on their own life/learning path, so l have no idea how to respond.

That depends on the relationship. I've had my heart seriously broken a couple of times and there's been other times when I was very glad to end it.

I wouldn't say I move on quickly, but I certainly never look back.

From what I've read in this forum and from my own experiences - there is no going back. Done is done. Move on, start again somewhere else.

If this is girl 1 from the guy1 guy2 saga, do not go back! You are worth more than that relationship.
You have value and deserve someone who will appreciate and value you. She did not.

My friends are for life. They may not all know that, but if one of them randomly showed up, it would just be like old times. Some old friends may not know that, because they have gotten out of touch. Family is the same. I never gave up on my rebellious son, even after he attacked me with a knife. I don't TRUST him yet, but I haven't stopped loving him, and if he ever truly changes I am willing to forget the crap.

I am a sample of one. I can't remotely speak for all autistic people.

Do not give up friends easily only ever had one relationship.

I wouldn't try to speculate over something like that based only on neurology. I think it's something that's bound to vary greatly from one individual to another, whether they are neurodiverse or neurotypical.

Yeah I keep an open mind on that, just based off what I've read etc I thought maybe I'd get real data from real people, thank you
