Its hard finding true love when you have disorders that drive most people away but i must not give up.

Yes & no.

Not specifically because of an AS label, but definitely because of symptoms.

I definitely got not-approached because I'm "weird" (which at the time I didn't know was autism).

I lived with an Aspie girl. I would deflect all of the hurtful things that she says to me with laughter, in turn would just make her angrier. I always showed affection and say "sticks and stones love! ^_^"

When you live with an aspie there is a right way and a wrong way to act. I have to be hyper self conscious of what I do to stay in the right. I have opinions. They are outlandish and immoral views of this brutal planet. In short, I will tell the cold harsh truth even if she doesn't like it.

To the point. Acting the right way takes allot of energy for me, even around other NTs. From time to time I need to recuperate and take care of my own mental health. I wanted a week off...she told me to compensate her with a dollar value for my absence. That made me very sad.


Trust is a big part of a relationship, along with sex and communication. Which all three began to dwindle when I did not want to join bank accounts. I said "NO"

Did I dump her because she was an aspie? It does not matter. There is no excuse for disrespect. She held me to a high standard, I also held her to that same standard. We did have great times together and I miss those days with her. =( People change though and it didn't last.

You at least know what you're doing. I get dumped/rejected before I even get the chance to tell them that I have Asperger's.
