Hi,

I have just joined the forum.
I was diagnosed as having Asperger's about six years ago. It came as a relief to find this out, as I always new that I was different to other people from about 5 years old. I am now 67 yrs old.

For some years now I have been having great difficulties in communicating with my wife, and it has recently got significantly worse to the extent that she wants to separate and get a divorce.

I don't want this to happen and would welcome some ideas, strategies etc; that other aspies have used successfully in improving communications.

Many thanks.

Gary
