Here it goes:
I think I should leave my long term boyfriend (8 years) because he seems to be tired of me, my aspergers and depression. Honestly don't know why he hasn't left already. He doesn't talk to me very much and when i do see him on weekends we will go an entire dinner with one or two word answers. The alternative is I talk too much trying to get him to interact with me. I have no idea how i will get thru weekends if he's gone. I can't talk to my sister in law anymore with out annoying her when i talk about him. I can get thru fridays and not feel like a complete loser and some of saturday but i don't know what i will do with myself. Everywhere i go I end up just being ignored or watching people who can make real friends interact. It just reminds me how terrible i am at this friends and interaction thing. So there it is. Discuss.

How do you feel about him? Do you feel at all tired of him?

Do you feel at all that you'd rather leave him now than wait to be left by him?

Damn 8 years is a pretty long time, how long has it been that he isn't talking to you much? And how were things before did he talk to you more, interact more and seem more into the relationship? Also when you try talking to him to get him to interact with you what kind of reaction does he have? Like outright ignoring you, or just seeming disinterested?

I would say you'll probably have to talk to him about it, and explain your concern granted it wont be an easy conversation but sounds like it needs to be had so you can better evaluate the situation and decide if leaving is the right choice.

It could be something else on his mind to, making him seem distant to.
