    What Are Common Annoying Things NTs Do in Relationships?

    After a million misunderstandings with my ASD (non-diagnosed) boyfriend over the last three years, I'm starting to perceive our relationship differently. People on this site have said over and over again- the ASD person isn't going to (can't) change. Everything I've read has stated the same...

    I suspect my ex of 4 years has Aspergers

    Hey there, I have recently broken up with my boyfriend of over 4 years. I suspected he might have Aspergers about 2 years ago. I didn't discuss it with him then as I didn't know enough about it but he does seem to demonstrate a lot of the traits. Also I didn't know if I should bring it up as I...

    My very own corner of peace and love

    Writing in anonymity has become a way to take care of myself. Every time I type a word, it's like combing my hair, or brushing my teeth. Sometimes it's like taking a hot bath for my soul, which is good since I don't have a bathtub. I decided to invest in a full size mattress for myself, so I can...

    The children issue: should I tell my ex to test for HFA?

    My ex is undiagnosed. I am not a medical professional. We ended because he had a "shutdown" episode. Why I think he has HFA: we were very close for the year that we dated. He told me many thoughts and difficulties he felt. He calls himself a robot. My best friend (who has family on the...

    Annoying Sounds

    I wasn't sure which forum made the most sense for this question, so I chose this one. Quick question. Can people on the spectrum be sensitive to certain noises/sounds? My boyfriend gets very agitated when I clear my throat (which is related to allergies and I don't even notice I'm doing it)...

    Explaining Relationship Dynamics to Aspie

    Usually I come on here to post or read threads when I'm struggling in my relationship with my (undiagnosed) ASD boyfriend. I guess reading and writing helps me see things from a more objective and broader perspective. I'm here to vent frustration because people on here "get it" but also to...

    Do people with asperger's have a tendency to hate their ex-partners after break up?

    Do people with asperger's have a tendency to hate their ex-partners after break up? If so, could this be due to their black and white thinking? You're either my girlfriend(love) or foe(hate)? Hello all, I am an NT and am deeply hurt and confused by my ex-boyfriend with asperger's. (FYI...

    Can't let go of destructive relationship because of the change

    Hello, I couldn't post in intro plus I'm nervous even on a forum so 1 is enough for me.

    How to Propose to an Aspie -- at least, this one

    I have a PLATONIC friend in the building that I've known for almost 2 years. We have things in common, like music and computers and really strange senses of humor, he's a great cook, so we've been eating together for the whole time, etc. He's an old hippie and but there's an ounce or two of...
