Are you married to/in a relationship with another AS person?

Post Reply New Topic

Have to agree. I'm a 27 yr old NT married to an undiagnosed Aspie (we just realized the probability in the last week or so). We've been together since we were young teenagers . I have always been so in love with his uniqueness and his passion for "his" topics; he's so dependable; and despite the difficulties, I wouldn't want anything different. Our struggles (plenty of them!!) have been centered around his social inabilities and anxieties vs. my somewhat extreme sensitivity to social expectations; it has taken me a long time to understand and to respond appropriately to him, letting him be himself. I'm hoping we can learn even more about how to work together as a team (something we've always been good at) using the information about Aspergers. This possible diagnosis is just be another piece to the puzzle, and thankfully we have very supportive family members who will take this as an opportunity to understand my hubs better. WrongPlanet has already been a great resource--thanks everyone!

No relationship but I have a crush on a guy who might have it.

Yes, I'm in a long term relationship with someone who I think is Aspie, but is not diagnosed. After all, he's the only person who has ever put up with me, and when I came out to him with Asperger's, he accepted me as I am. We have talked about marriage, but right now we realize we couldn't afford it so we're waiting for the economy to improve so we both get better jobs.

YES.. just yes. It's better, there's more conversation for starters

Its awesome.

With all its problems in communication and overthinking everything, its way worth it. Over time all those problems open up into a deeper understanding.

Monogamy vs Anyotheramy is a venting of overthinking what the other truely wants out of life. I believe it is spurred on by oversaturation of the media outlets and social interactions of gossip. By no means is this a true representation of life, but we can talk about it without destroying each other. Take an analytical approach to the relationship.

Brunt honosty and a strong woman was what I wanted and that is who I found. My wonderful, beautiful, aspy womyn.

In a relationship for three years with an autistic guy till recently, he was quite high functioning though. My first love, he just understood me and I could understand him.

I do not know if he has AS but he is socially awkward and is very shy around me but despite that he's unbelievable. He's turning out to be everything I wanted in a partner.

Would someone with Aspergers or someone whos dated someone with it be willing to have a short pm chat with me about dating an Aspie?

I'm having problems and dont feel comfortable talking about it openly.

I am a 27 yrs old female who has BPD ,ADHD, Bipolar and I'm the NT, my 25 yr old Aspie husband also has depression and ADD. We are quite a pair, we are very similar and very different. He is the socially awkward extrovert, and I'm the socially comfortable introvert. We have been married for 16 months and between all of my mental issues and his, it's a miracle we are still together. We have a mutual understanding of each other's needs and strive to work on our relationship. I think the most important thing in a AS/NT relationship is honesty, communication and lots of forgiveness. It's work, but having a man that will stop at nothing to please you and do whatever you want, whenever you want it, is a rare thing and I am blessed.





If anyone has any questions about being married to an Aspie let me know. I would be happy to answer it.

I've never even met an aspie girl =\
