| I wish there were literature on this topic, because I can certainly use some help myself. I am a native English speaker living in Mexico with a Mexican partner.

My best,

| Hi everyone, My partner and I are an AS-AS couple who have serious communication problems. We would like to do some sort of couples counseling with someone who works with AS people. Unfortunately, we live in Mexico, where there are few qualified people who can work in English, which is what we need.... |

| Thanks so much for linking this. I'm an AS man with a wonderful AS woman who has an AS daughter, and I love learning more about AS-AS couples and their families. Are you aware of any other information on AS-AS relationships? |

| Hi questor, Thank you so much for your quick reply - it is very helpful. I'm really not terribly concerned about getting an official diagnosis. I'm more interested in getting some counseling from a therapist who has experience with AS, and I assumed that an official diagnosis was needed for that. Pe... |
