| Dear AJB: It's not accurate for you to say I'm "one of [your] best friends." You rarely speak to me and you lie to me -- shouldn't have let K spill your secret. Last time I visited you, you didn't get out of bed to say goodbye, even though your boyfriend did. When I move again this December and put ... |

| (Some of my answers might come off a bit materialistic; if so, it's because I was married to a man who took advantage of my trusting nature and student loan money. My answers are also targeted toward men in their 20s because I'm 23 and look for potential mates close to my age. I'm a student, so I un... |

| I appreciate the input, guys, but I'm not really asking whether I should break up with this person -- that's the sort of conclusion I'd have to arrive at entirely on my own. All I really want to know is whether I'm being reasonable in this situation, whether he's being reasonable in this situation, ... |

| :( I hope things improve for you one way or another; I am divorced, myself, so to an extent I can understand what you're going through. Good luck making some sort of decision, because that's the hardest part... For my own situation, I'd still rather find a way to present the topic in a way that'll m... |

| I'm technically NT and HATE HUGS from just about everyone I'm not romantic with... I think I'm in the minority there but most people do not try to hug me, whether because they get some sort of body language vibe from me or they're just not big huggers. The ones that need to hug every time they see y... |

| Hiya. Female NT with male aspie significant other. Right now the relationship is long-distance, has been for a while, will be for at least another three-or-so months. Right now we text, email, and Skype. Since learning that he's an aspie, my reactions toward his behavior (which previously I took to ... |

| In my albeit limited experience, I've found some aspies to be difficult to deal with and others to be really pleasant. There's always something a little off when the conversation gets serious and I need the aspie person to understand where I'm coming from... but honestly, that happens with NTs too. ... |

| A good personality makes people more attractive, to me... for instance, if the person is initially unattractive but is funny and easy to talk to, their looks will start seeming more average. Likewise, attractive people who are stupid jerks start looking repellent. I've never technically 'dated,' and... |

| Hi everyone! I found my way to this site through one of many articles on aspie/NT relationships. I strongly suspect that my significant other is an aspie, since he has just about all of the typical traits and a psychiatrist also suggested a few years ago that he might be an aspie (I don't think ther... |
