    Just realized my BF might be "on the spectrum"

    IDK, I think he is worth it, he is so special and we have so much fun. I think he just doesn't realize he is missing some of the stuff that a woman who'd been married 30 years is accustomed to, and is puzzled if it hurts me that he doesn't act completely consistently boyfriend-ish. Actions...

    Just realized my BF might be "on the spectrum"

    I just googled, and started reading, and did watch some videos from the above site. I don't know much about autism vs aspergers or anything...I just accepted his peculiarities as peculiarities. But my observation that his behavior was slowly changing to be solely focussed on himself without...

    Just realized my BF might be "on the spectrum"

    Thanks a lot Mr. Donuts for making light of something that is breaking my heart. Maybe I am stupid to worry that if he is HFA it means we will not stay together. Others' comments that it is impossible to diagnose or categorize on the basis of a few peculiarities, now that is more helpful. I...

This is new territory for me so I appreciate all the help (and tolerance for my previous ignorance.) I don't understand the reference to "a man who enjoys his crystal ball too much"????? I have been...

    Just realized my BF might be "on the spectrum"

    Thank you for the responses. I love him very much but in my marriage I gave a lot and received less in return (my husband was a recovering alcoholic and we had some tough times) , and I don't feel I can survive getting my heart broken again. But my sweetie is the only man I want. He is...

    Just realized my BF might be "on the spectrum"

    I am a widow who has reunited with a man I was in love with when I was 17. I broke his heart back then because he was too clingy. We kept in touch over the years until I married 30 years ago. Now I am in love with him again--- he lives 4 hours away and calls me every day but only wants to see...
