    NT extremely confused with how her ASD ex-fiancé is treating her!

    Hi all, so I am new to this thread but I need some help so a little background. My fiancé ended is 6 weeks ago after being together for a year.

    At a stand still in a ND relationship.

    Hello all! I’m going to dive right in and get straight to the point. For the last eight months I have been involved with a wonderful, bright, funny, smart Aspie man. We are a gay couple (I use the word couple loosely). He has Aspergers and severe PTSD from combat in Afghanistan (diagnoses...

    Studying for until late 20s to the detriment of dating/social life

    I think that my situation is a bit known here, so I will skip it. Anyway I spent most of my life, since age 4 or 5 up to age 28 studying hard, to the detriment of both my dating and social life. If you can call it that, because usually I have had no dating nor social life. In high school I was...

    Unable to tolerate casual touching (dating)

    I have heard over and over how touch is key in the dating world, and that no touch means no attraction. However, as a 30 year old male, I never felt comfortable with casual touch. When I was 14 in high school, a girl kept trying to talk to me. Eventually, one day, when I was eating lunch alone...

    Extreme naïveté

    I have had this problem since I was a small boy. I tended (tent?) to not only interpret everything literally, I also trusted in everyone and believed that everyone was 100% right and 100% trustworthy. When someone told me something, I had to believe it, because I believed that what everyone...

    Virginity problem running in the family

    I am a 30 year old American male. My first thread on this forum was written when I was 29, about my fears about turning 30 and being a virgin. Not by choice, not by some sort of religious belief like abstinence, but rather just it happened that way without my wanting it to. I did some research...

    Do normal people really act like this?

    I am the guy who made a thread about being worried about being a virgin at age 30. Anyway, at age 26, I started attending meetups and social gatherings in my city to make friends, and perhaps if things went well, maybe find a girlfriend. So during all of the meetups since then up to now, I have...

    Friendship/dating sites and forums for atypical people

    Following my first thread on the forum about being single/virgin at 30, I was wondering if there are friendship and dating sites and forums for people who do not fit into the societal norms or expectations of "normal". As an example, I have ASD, several anxiety problems, OCD and sometimes get...

    Is dating harder for men with ASD compared to women with ASD?

    I have noticed throughout my life that I have met a lot more men who have some degree of autism or Asperger's who are single, compared with women with the same condition. Given that men are still expected to do all of the approaching and initiating, no matter how far society has advanced in...

    Hardcore Rapper & Still Need Comfort Toy??

    Younger male partners

    All the boyfriends that I’ve had (and ex husband), have been younger than me (six months, a year, two years, three years, three years). I’m curious to know if there are other female aspies like me. I used to think that it was because I looked younger, but maybe I’m emotionally younger too (an...

    Disassociation of mind from body.

    23 year old and Asperger... Ok so I am really into reading and when I was 12 I came across historical romance that had, not explicit but detailed sex scenes. So those types of books became one of my main reading categories changing from historical to more BDSM as I got older. Now, fast forward...

    Quandaries of a book-geek mom

    The relationship with my dad was based in the exchange of knowledge, mostly him helping me out with school subjects, or him recommending me books. It was never an equal exchange. He mostly downloaded information on me (aspie style) and I received it. I used to receive it gladly because I...

    Can feelings change?

    Hello everyone. I am looking for some insight into my previous relationship. I am an NT and my partner was an aspie. We didn't work out. He told me he was not the right guy for me, and he could not give me what I wanted. He said sharing a bed was too hard for him. I tried to respect that the...
