    NT and Aspie Communication

    Being an NT in a relationship with an Aspie, I can tell you, from my experience, this happens but not considered to be rude or an insult. My son has a phone ( aspie too) and forgets to charge it, turn it on and just doesn't check it. Loves gaming but not interested in phones and texting. Hubby...

    NT dating AS? PLEASE POST!!!!

    Hi Rachel , I do the the same thing now. It's hard to be precise with ' how you feel' so I just ask for a moment to get my words right. We also struggle to communicate, mainly because he speaks eloquently and I tend to struggle with this.

The great thing about Aspergers is...

    NT dating AS? PLEASE POST!!!!

    Hi taipan I'm a NT and been with my partner for 28 years. I too feel this way regularly, he is not a diagnosed aspie, but admits he could be. I get through these times by encouraging a lot of conversation and telling him what I need, but gently. I invite him to lunch, or suggest that we hang out...
