Greetings all,
I am trying to learn about the spectrum, as my mother, who recently passed away, we suspect had some form of autism, and my partner of 18 years, who I recently separated from, recently said he thinks he has some form of autism. I'm trying to make sense of it all. They are/were both extreme introverts and not at all affectionate. They both had routines, both highly intelligent. But both are/were socially inept. So, I'm here to learn.
