Thanks all....
My point is.... there is love out there. And it can be amazing. I will miss my Davey so very much. But wow, what we had was "super great" as he used to say. And we found it on gk2gk. If my heart heals, I will go back there and try again. |

| I am NT, and had a very successful relationship with an AS guy. Before me he'd never "found a person who'd understood the strange puzzle piece that he was". It took a small amount of effort to learn his "code", but once I cracked it, we had a beautiful relationship. It was different than any other N... |

| I always related "geek" to "deep interest in technology". Technology is surely part of it, and I think the definition is open to interpretation. There can be tech geeks and gamer geeks, but I think too, sci-fi or fantasy geeks, cosplay geeks. I was a completely different kind of geek than my sweeth... |

| I met my dear one on geek to geek. Sadly, as some of you know, he passed away last month. I'm an NT, and I have to say that as with all dating websites, it's just a matter of wading through the "stuff". People are not who they pretend to be (or perhaps who they think they are) on sites all of the ti... |

| Ironically, Dave used to tell me that I had to take my medication because "I love you and people I love are obliged to stay alive so I can keep on loving them." I loved him so very much. It is very difficult to keep going, but because I have children, I cannot give up or quit. One keeps going becaus... |

| Thank you all. It was indeed unexpected, and we believe unintentional. He told me that I was the best thing that had ever happened to him and he'd never known someone who fit with him, a "strange puzzle piece" so well. I'm just heartbroken. He was such a sweet and gentle soul. To answer the question... |

| Thank you all so very much for your conversations and assistance. I was truly looking forward to improving an already very special relationship with my sweetie. Sadly, my love died the day before Thanksgiving. My heart feels as though it is irrevocably broken. I was so excited to take new steps to o... |

| Dating, even for NTs, is sometimes very frustrating. BUT.... wonderful things can and do happen. I think it happens when you're not trying too hard. And yes, luck is involved. I was very happily married until my husband died. For 5 years, I've tried dating.... it isn't easy. We all just have to hang... |

| AW., that's sad. I like to cuddle and it's hard to find guys who like to do the same. thats funny, i love to cuddle and cant find women who want a guy to cuddle with. (its weird how on dating sites they all say they are looking for a nice guy, but then have no attraction to them at all because they... |

| Sisterphoenix, I tend to ask this of any NT lady who is with an ASD guy, but how did you two meet? It's usually under unusual circumstances or the woman initiating everything, as far as I've seen. Thanks! :) I don't find our meeting terribly unusual. I will qualify this by saying that though I'm cl... |

And one was just recommended to me by someone here: Asperger Syndrome - A Love Story Good lu... |

| sisterphoenix, get that book. Seriously. If I was NT I would be extremely happy with the knowledge that that relationship can work. I am yet to find a similar book, with an AS-AS relationship. :roll: Have you heard/read a book called "The Other Half of Aspergers Syndrome: A guide to an intimate rel... |

| aspieotaku, you hang in there. It'll work when it's meant to. Hand flapping is a-ok. My nephew is a flapper and the rest of us have kind of picked up the habit, actually. It's the perfect expression of delight, right? :) Dating is tough, no matter what. I've had plenty of NT/NT dates and it's tough.... |
