Hello. I came across this forum searching for information about dating someone with Autism. My boyfriend and I have been together for about 2 1/2 months now. We first met when we worked together at a pizza place. I knew instantly that he was autistic but I didn't let that stop me from being his friend. Through out the time we worked together we became good work buddies. He eventually found a better job and quit the pizza place but we kept in touch through Facebook. We eventually became such good friends that he would come to me when he was having problems or just wanted to talk to someone. Later in the year I hit a rough patch and needed a place to stay. He found out and opened his door to me when no one else would. We started hanging out when he would get home from work at 2am, listening to music and just talking. As we got to know each other more I started to develop feelings for him which I eventually admitted to him on my birthday while I was drunk (Lol). But it actually worked out for the best. The day after my birthday we talked about what I had told him and he told me that the feelings were mutual. We took things a little slow (even though we were already living together) and a month later we made it official. We couldn't be happier. He is an amazing person inside and out.
