In love with a man with Asperger's
I am in love with a man that has Aspergers. I dated him years ago before anyone had heard of Aspergers. I always knew that there was something different and very intense about him. That is what drew me to him. We broke up the first time because of a misunderstanding. He could never tell me what he was thinking or feeling about our relationship. I got frustrated with him and started to date other men. We went our separate ways for many years until my husband passed away and then I sought him out again. A mutual friend told me that she thought that he has Aspergers and I watched him closely and I completely agree with her after spending more time with him. He withdrew from me after losing his job of 35 years and ended our relationship abruptly. He ended up going back to an old girlfriend. I know that he cares for me and I sure do care for him and love him deeply but, I don't know if I could ever spend my life with him.
