| Hello everyone, my boyfriend (on the spectrum) and me (NT) have been together for about a year now. Before me he was never with another girl, everything was the first time (kiss,touch,sex,..). Right from the first time we had sex, he made it clear to me that he had fantasies about being dominated in... |

| Hi everyone, I need some advice about my current situation. The last couple of days my bf (undiagnosed ASD) has been feeling very depressed and alone. It was his 18th birthday and he was excited about this for weeks, partly also because he was hoping to get some attention from people he no longer ta... |

| Hi everyone, does anyone of you stick your tongue out while doing (manual) tasks? My bf (undiagnosed ASD) does this a lot. I noticed it while he was playing a game on PS4 which requires him to do very fast character movements/combos. He not only sticks his tongue out, but moves it a lot, very fast, ... |

| Actually as a couple you two sound a lot like my neurotypical girlfriend and I. You two are teens, and we are middle aged, but. For starters she is the main (and basically the only) person I ever talk to. I'm not a teen, 25 haha I am a bit older than my bf. Which is maybe why it works well at the m... |

| Thanks everyone for your answers/advice! It means a lot to me. It was never really my intention from the start to tell him about my suspicions. I just thought that if I tell him, and he knew already, that he could be more comfortable around me and not trying to act like he is the same as me. But sin... |

| Sounds like he is ASD. Do ASD folks know that they are different? Well...if you really are ASD then the world pretty much let's you know that you are different in no unsubtle terms, by rubbing your face in dogshit from day one. So I would say that most of us know that we are different. Though we ma... |

| Hi everyone, some time ago I made soms posts about my boyfriend who I suspect has ASD. We're still together at the moment and I feel like the more time we spend together, talk online, do things,.. the more obvious it gets to me that he has some form of ASD. Some of his traits are: -not understanding... |

| That sort of reaction may/may not be related to ASD. It is a common reaction one has when they have depression, such as Dysthymia (which I also have). It is really something that benefits most by seeing a professional about it. There is absolutely nothing wrong or reason to feel bad about in seekin... |

| Thanks for the feedback! What made me post this question is this: at the beginning of this week I bought on online game for my bf because he was talking about wanting to play it for some time and I wanted to surprise him. He was super happy with it and talked about it the whole time, which charactar... |

We are pretty good at communicating lately, I'm being more understanding, givi... |

We met last July and have been exclusive since December. We see each other every 6-8 weeks and we just spent 2 months living together (... |

| This sounds exactly like my bf. We are also started doing long distance, he too still lives at home.. except he’s on his 30s... I also get anxious when I see he’s read my important messages and doesn’t respond - I feel very rejected often... but I am learning to be more patient and accepting - it’s... |
