Married people: do you feel like you are faking it?
Not in my house. I'm the head of the household and everyone has to put up with the real me.
And I'm still in love with DH and think he's the cutest. We do each have our own spaces and personal time to be alone. I think that's really important for Aspies or just introverted people. If you sleep in the same room, at least set up different home offices or hobby areas. Alone time is essential for relationship health. Time to set up a "man cave".
If not possible, perhaps do a lot of gardening, work in the garage or go for walks and jogging. You've got to have your own time to relax and to recharge.
