    Dating

    I appreciate your reply. I just wish I had more know-how on this bc Im clueless. It used to be that I could easily get into a relationship, but now it has become so difficult.

    Do Aspies have delayed mental development?

    I can see how a person with autism can have delayed development. I tried going to school over 150 miles away from my family and I had severe separation anxiety and eventually went back home before the semester ended. Also attempting to live independently of my family also was difficult. I've...
