| Thank you, this is really helpful. And I'm definitely going to start a list. And yeah, I should try and make the things I say more meaningful. |

| You might want to do that, but please realise that gifts and tokens aren't the most important gesture. It's much nicer to have a person care. When she comes home from work / school, ask about her day. Make her tea or her favourite snack. Ask and listen when she's upset. In a relationship, it's nice... |

| I'm not sure if this is universal, but one of the things that (still) and always makes a huge impression on my wife is when she mentions she's interested or likes something in an off-handed way - an obscure book she loved as a kid, a very specific preference for flowers or some other small, apparen... |

| I know the basics of what she likes and dislikes, but I'm not good with specifics. I can never pick the perfect gifts like she can, because she knows every little thing about what makes me happy. I feel awful for not remembering. I've considered making a list before but it seems ridiculous to me tha... |

| I'd honestly never thought about it that way, but it makes a lot of sense. I know that I'm not great at complimenting her, I'm not good under pressure and I'm really bad with words. But it's definitely something I need to work on. Yeah, I definitely need to think of things she likes. I'm useless at ... |

| She does know that I'm autistic, and I think that's why she's been trying to just deal with it for so long instead of telling me. She didn't want to make me feel bad about how I am naturally. But we've both changed things about each other, as you do in relationships. So I know I need to learn how to... |

| She's the most important thing in my life, and I'll do anything that I can to fix this. I hate the fact it's been upsetting her and I've not done anything to change it yet. |

| My post probably wasn't very clear, sorry about that. When I meant change I don't mean change my entire personality. I have to learn how to act in situations instead of just knowing, like a lot of autistic people. This is my first proper relationship, so I never had any experience. Sex isn't the iss... |

| Okay, so the title isn't great, but I don't know how else to explain this is one sentence. So me and my girlfriend have been together for 4 and a half years. But now we've hit a problem, and if I don't fix it I'm going to lose her. I need to put a disclaimer here, because when I type it out I don't ... |
