Hiya I've known my guy for over 2 years an really been seeing one another for about a year. I am in love...him..well..I'm not sure. He only recently told me he is diagnosed with autism when he was little. I suppose he is high functioning as he works, drives etc. So I'm here to get advice and learn more about it.
Just really giving everyone a wave

If we go on big monologues of paragraphs worth of information that means we're interested. Don't be offended, that's a common mistake.
 
Hi & Welcome,
If you don't mind me asking, in which context did he tell you about the ASD?

btw, I am Aspie married to NT 32 years this month. I know the match can work. However, I think one must be absolutely sure/convinced it will. If there are any doubts, I would not move forward until those are resolved or let it go.
 
Oh it absolutely can. My wife is as NT as they come, AQ 16 (I am AQ 42 on top of a formal diagnosis) and we have been married for 27 years.
 
Tony Atwood once asked the question, who marries an Aspie? He reckons nurses are top of the list. Guess what my wife does for a living?
