I'm pretty emotionally wiped out right now and don't have the energy to go through the different forums, but I look forward to doing so. I am having a tough week trying to keep my wits about me, the drip-drip-drip of being married to a man with AS having worn me down, and I was hoping to find some support and encouragement. I just really needed to do something tonight so that this wouldn't continue. I gushed it all out in a new blog that's in my signature. I hope to find more blogs of NT spouses to read. Look forward to getting to know you!

Eliza

WrongPlanet is probably not the right forum for you.
Your husband might get more out of it.

Hi Eliza

I hope you get something out of this site. I'm an AS male. I think this site is for all who are impacted. Otherwise, why would they have the options for NTs to join in.

There seem to be quite a lot of NT females around. Maybe you should start a thread with a suitable title and see what happens.

"Hi," Eliza, and welcome aboard the Wrong Planet. You might wish to check out WP's "In-Depth Adult Life Discussion Forum": http://www.wrongplanet.net/forum32.html
All the best to you and your husband.

Hi Eliza,

You're welcome to PM my wife, she's on here as jbollard - though not very often.
If you PM her though, she'll get the message and reply.

Don't give up on the value of asking your questions here as well, to other AS spouses. We may not all be as non-communicative as your husband, and we may be able to give you some insight on his thinking that will allow you to find your own encouragement.

Thank you Seebert and all of you. I appreciate the link to the adult life forum and will write your Mrs, gbollard. I appreciate the welcome.
