What is your opinion of this site?

http://forums.delphiforums.com/ASPartners/start

Read one, or two posts over there and give an opinion here. Try not to post things that might give Alex a reason to end this discussion, but do be honest.

Very negative and untruthful. They do not realise it takes 2 to make a relationship work!!

It just seems like a get together for bitchy women.......

omg, this is schocking.
This proofs that nts rarely understand aspies at all,
it looks like nts on that site even have lower EQ then
'us'.

Shocking, yes. I felt traumatized by one of their high ranking posts. If their Aspie partners knew what those women were saying behind their backs I am sure they would give them the honor of removing themselves from their lives so that the women wouldn't have to go through the trouble themselves.

I can't read that board. it scares me I get anxious and afraid just looking at the titles of the posts

Wow this is scary. However, there are NT and NT relationships I know where the wives are as cruel. I will refrain from jumping on my soapbox about people treating others like this

Just makes me glad that my husband has been so patient with me over the years.

Well said Kerrigan. In my second post to them (which never got though), I stated that they "lack both compassion and empathy"

I also asked: "Why are there no men on this forum? Its seems like this is an anti-aspergers bitchy womens get together...."

I also accused them of "George Bush style censorship" for refusing to accept my posts and "engage in open debate with me"

There was one comment made to someone doing a disseration on sexuality education and AS and their advice to teens with AS was rather disgusting alone the lines to get rid of their AS and never get married as they'll only put their partner through hell. Sick.

I think that if the potential for someone to be too difficult for a marriage relationship exists that it has to be realized by the person in order to matter. I hope that made some sense.

This begs the question: WHY DID THEY MARRIE ASPERGERIAN MEN IN THE FIRST PLACE IF THESE MEN ARE SO HORRIBLE???????

You guys all know my thoughts on this board:

These women are mentally illl and need to get their heads out of their (possibly fat) asses.

Exactly, I've been wondering about this myself, I don't understand it. I read recently from the forum moderator that she doesn't even allow aspies to post on the site (I tried posting myself). I found almost all of the post to be very upsetting They complain about their partners being selfish and self-centered, when it seems like they are the ones being selfish and self-centered and expecting the impossible out of their AS partners-to act NT. I think if they truly loved and cared for their partners, they would try to better understand AS (I see them reverting to a lot of myths and stereotypes here) and understand their partner's needs and reach out to them. It doesn't seem to me like they are doing that or even willing to do that. I hope this group is a minority.

I too hope they are a minority. What you said about understanding needs applys to all relationships (romatic, friend, parent, employee, etc.) and I would not doubt that these women have issues with others than just their husbands.

The issues of not being willing to let the "other side" have a say already showes a closed minded attitude.

OMG!!!I went there and I was VERY shocked1I just can't believe the nerve of those people!I bet some of them don't even know what they're talking about...

SpaceCase

P.S.I'm VERY,VERY,VERY angry right now and I do NOT like feeling angry!

I don't like that site, it reminds me too much of FAAAS and ASPAR.

There's a background to that site that maybe people don't know about - there were many complaints and much dissatisfaction with the negativity of it and the aspies who used to post there went off and started their own site called AS and their Partners. So the site remains mostly for NTs to vent about their spouses and how autism wrecked their lives/marriages/whateva.
