There is no doubt in my mind that my boyfriend has aspergers. We dated for a year and things were not smooth. We both love each other. We broke up in January and have just decided to try it again. I am nervous about things going bad and so is he.

Does anyone have suggestions for me (a most likely NT) to have a good relationship with a very good man who I have no doubt has aspergers although he isn't diagnosed? Is it possible for both of us to have a relationship where both of our needs are met?

What are your experiences or advice?
