    Might my girlfriend have aspergers

    Suiseki, Roy, Cerulean, Thank you very much. I'm going to try to raise aspergers with her on Friday and see where we get. It may be that she becomes angry and defensive, or it may be that she listens. I'm also going to suggest counselling because whether or not she is aspergic, there are other...

    Might my girlfriend have aspergers

    Dear Nisik, Roy, Thanks so much for your helpful comments. Roy, so much that you say rings true. She doesn't seem to hear things that are said or quickly forgets them. She has chronic single focus. She is also extremely sensitive. She will fight with me and say terrible things but in her eyes...

    Might my girlfriend have aspergers

    Thanks, Nisk. Yes, my motivation is for her benefit. I made the comment about not being her saviour because when I contacted a helpline for advice on how to broach her problem gambling with her some months back the woman at the end of the phone just kept going on at me about being certain that...

    Might my girlfriend have aspergers

    Thanks Nisk. Right now I don't feel caring, and no longer positive.

    Might my girlfriend have aspergers

    Abe, Nisk, Thank you. To be honest, I feel as though I need to find a way to talk about it with her. She doesn't talk about problems easily. She's spoken about a major issue in her life a few years ago when she hit rock bottom but won't talk about it. I know she's had some serious romantic...

    Might my girlfriend have aspergers

    Thanks, ancusmitis! I do notice how often "on the spectrum" is used in a negative and insulting way in daily life and think that if she is aspergic and if she knows this, it won't necessarily be easy to disclose... While I'm thanking you, thanks again to all who have posted. Suddenly things...

    Does my partner have Aspergers?

    Dear Svalbard, I can relate to this. My girlfriend and I have spent about four months apart with a five week spell together in the middle. This spell apart finally ends this week (hurray) and I'm currently trying to figure out whether or not she might be aspergic and work through how I can take...

    Might my girlfriend have aspergers

    Progster, Abe1, Suzanne, Cal, Roy, Thank you all for taking the time to share your thoughts :) Of course, I've shared certain very personal details but the truth is that she's an amazing woman. If she was a paranoid, jealous and abusive girlfriend I'd have left ages ago: she's none of these...

    Hello all, Apologies if I have posted this question in the wrong section of the forum, but if appreciate some advice. I have been in a relationship for 11 months and am wondering if my girlfriend is aspergic. I would very much appreciate any thoughts on this, and also if there is a sense that...
