Is it just me or did that thread Cubedemon told me about disappeared?

I tried to search it again and it was gone, I couldn't find it again. I bet they have spies here too as well and they saw this thread and told the owner or the mods about it and it got removed.

Maybe you should copy the posts you don't like complete with users names and people's comments. That way you could hold their feet to the fire for being biggots if you ever get into an argument with them. This way if they destroy evidence of their hate and discrimination you could still rub their noses in their filth they wrote.

Yes I found it again. I just couldn't remember where he posted the link. I was wondering how I found that thread anyway and then I couldn't anymore.

Heres a post that I got a kick out of:

Posted by QPlan

Quote:

Has anyone ever considered the social cost of having one in a hundred humans in the United States having Asperger's? I know for me being a man married to an Aspie has cost me untold amounts of productivity and enjoyment. I have a business and for YEARS it has suffered b/c I did not realize I was a man living with an AUTISTIC woman! Now that I know what's going on the toll is not so bad.

His business has suffered? Its the economy and his lack of business skills thats killing his business. The guy is such a looser he has to project his failures onto his wife as if she had anything to do with his bad business decisions. :lol:

Has QPlan ever considered the business savy needed to run a business durring hard economic times he obviously has no ability to properly run a business. I feel sorry for his wife the man probably blames bad weather on his wife aswell. QPlan needs to be a man and own up to his bad business decisions and stop blamming his wife for his failures.

I think there is some truth in 'Cassandra syndrome'. Having gone out with an incredibly self-centered, arrogant AS person, I can personally attest that it does leave you emotionally drained and depressed. The error though is making it a blanket statement about aspergers; many guys with AS work their butts off not to act like this and to be kind to their partners, so it's a kick in the teeth to them, whereas I don't see why someone going out with an arrogant, self-centered NT wouldn't experience exactly the same symptoms.

I get what you're saying, but I don't think that's "Cassandra Syndrome" - I think it's just what happens to anybody when they have an emotionally unavailable or abusive partner. I've read a lot after I've first heard about Maxine Aston and the gang and I couldn't find any difference between the stories involving AS partners and those about "NT" husbands who were just a***holes or abusers.

I agree with you Sallamandrina. That's why in the following paragraph I wrote;

Quote:

"Cassandra syndrome' just seems to be a series of symptoms that signal that the relationship isn't right for you and that you should stop banging your head against a wall and get out."

I don't think it's related to aspergers specifically at all.

The man's wife isn't even diagnosed and he's saying she's AS. I read what these er hags wrote and they don't sound at all nice or compassionate. I've suffered a lot at the hands of my NT husband. I bet they'd say the same regardless of who they married. The general attitude is all Aspies suck and divorce is a good thing. He is probably dily dallying w/someone on that forum or just looking for a way to have an affair. They make their husbands sound like louses and yet I wonder how have they been in the marriage.

The man says he has been on wrongplanet before, asked a series of questions, and was chewed down by aspies here. My question is where is his post here?

I seem to remember seeing a post by man complaining about his wife with AS either earlier on this year, or last year. I can't remember what the title was though.

You have to remember that thread we just read on there was from October 2009 so the stuff he posted here had to be before that. I wonder if I was one of those aspies here who responded.

If I knew what his name was here, I would have done a search and look for that thread and read it. I just can't recall it happening. Either I missed it or I forgot about it. I don't read everything here.

Then it must of been sometime last year or in 2008. I know I read it and didn't respond to it. Although, I didn't respond to much of anything 2008 for over six months because while I was still lurking here, I was finishing of my MSc so I didn't have much for Wrongplanet.

I'm wondering if the women on aspartners are the way they are because of guys like this.
