| OK so I posted something in the Women's discussion that was basically me venting my unedited frustrations about coming to terms with the POSSIBILITY that my husband MAY have AS. I was under the impression that was allowed...but some people who responded were very quick to let me know I was way off. ... |

| Please tell me what is missing from my OP that would otherwise suggest he has AS. When I was ready to tear my hair out wondering what on earth had happened to my youthful, interesting, energetic husband...other than just being bummed that he has a job and is out of school? (the same is true for me a... |

| The movie-talk thing he does with OTHER people, so, he's going to be that way, when I'm not there to say "OK, you've spoken about movies for 10 minutes, that's enough now." Yesterday, we had a bit of a breakthrough, where he only turned what we were talking about into a movie, once, and then he was ... |

| Also I'm not sure what you mean about the "is he miserable" comment... Are you asking me if he is not actually miserable and I am in fact the only one who is unhappy, and I am imagining he is unhappy, or that I am fabricating misery that isn't there, because I am unhappy? It just seems like kind of ... |

| Unfortunately we both knew little about, it before, which is why I didn't consider it, but I am learning more and more. I said "depression" in relation to me having addressed that in the past--and another poster asking me if I had cosidered that as part of he problem... I am here to learn more, not ... |

| I thought I pointed out that I've spent the last two years trying to have conversations with him about depression, trying to reason with him about his "movie-talk" etc, but nothing has worked. I thought that was clear, sorry. |

| I have been avoiding making this issue I guess *I* am having, public, without being sure. But I think his obsession with movies and his lack of understanding of social cues were pointing in this direction. I appreciate those of you who wish to actually give me advice. I think when you have to help s... |

| You sound like my husband who insists he's not AS, because he's friendly and expressive. :) But he definitely has strong tendencies. I'm trying to cope with talking to him about it right now... not sure how to address it sometimes. How are you, the responses on these greeting posts are kinda thin.. |
