    Living with an Aspie

    I don't think people with AS have muted emotions, i think that maybe they have problems talking about or expressing their emotions, which is totally different. I hasten to add I,m NT so the others will be better qualified to clarify this. I think you need to set the boundaries of what you find...

    Hope you can help-NT female/AS male

    Hi sevenlights, i don't think anyone can predict if a relationship will or wont work out and that's nothing to do with him having AS. The good thing is you are now aware of it and may have to adjust the way you communicate with him. Without knowing your bf and you, its hard to advise if you...

    Living with an Aspie

    Just catching up with this thread. I,ll get that book Hal and let you know what i think. I would agree that my AS male has exaggerated male tendancies. He will also put off doing stuff if he isn't committed to doing , for instance at the moment he,s supposed to be applying for jobs and keeps...

    Awww hal thats wonderful to hear, keep up the effort, the good things in life are worth working for. Maybe we can all learn something here and I'm definately going to buy that book Dragons Tooth. I can so relate to a lot of what you have said. I ended my marriage 10 years ago, he wasnt a bad...

    Living with an Aspie

    Why dont you both write down what you're unhappy about. Then choose a time to go through each others list and see where you can compromise, preferably a time when neither of you are stressed or angry. In some cases you might be able to do a "trade off", ie you can have your facial hair if you...

    Living with an Aspie

    Hi Hal, as an NT female in a relationship with an AS male, i find the lack of communication a real problem. If he,s stressed or anxious about something instead of talking it through with me, he withdraws completely so i have no idea what he,s thinking, or what the problem is. He also can very...

    Hope you can help-NT female/AS male

    Again, many thanks for the replies and giving me a view of things as he might see them. I'm, pretty sure he's not leading a double life Smith but I can see how you might think that, given the information I've given. I'm in my 40's so not unversed in the art of relationships and I'm pretty sure I...

    Hope you can help-NT female/AS male

    Many thanks for your reply livinggreen. You certainly raised things that I hadn't even thought of, which I suppose is the reason why I came here . I will try to broach the subject with him again when the time feels right and we're both relaxed. I have no issues with him having a social...

    Dating an aspie guy

    Re: Hi there Hi tapian, hope you dont mind me adding my thoughts on this. I'm NT female with and AS bf, so I cant advise or add anything to the AS side of things but I can relate perhaps to your bf in the pet department. I have pets of my own and they will always be a part of my life until...

    Hope you can help-NT female/AS male

    Hi guys, this is my first post here so apologies if its long. I've known my bf over 8 years as a friend and work colleague. My impression of him during these years were he's smart, funny, very intelligent, confident, fantastic memory, devilishly handsome, can be arrogant towards certain...
