Hey, I am new here. Awoke at 4am and my hubby was making his profile on this site. We recently had another argument/fight whatever you want to call it which mostly comes down to him being an Aspie and me not knowing how to apply that to our communication/relationship ect. So my question is, where is the best place for a spouse to go for info or insight? Are there any good books or online sites for me to read/study? I want to get better at recalling how to handle his reactions to life/social events in the moment and not letting my emotions run the show. Does this make sense? If it helps he has ADD and Aspergers and has known about the ADD for almost 3 years and the Aspergers for about 6months. I know that most times Neurotypicals are seen as annoying or "just not getting it". I would love to break that steroetype at least for myself. Thanks for any advice. I have really enjoyed reading this site.

firstly, welcome to this site.
you have made a good first start in finding this site, spending an evening browsing around should get you quite a bit of information; but remember that no two people with an ASD are the same, th ebest person to tell you how to 'handle' your husband will be your husband.
