Hi Everyone
Just a few questions that my boyfriend just doesn't seem to know the answer to. He hasn't been formally diagnosed with AS.
1 - Can someone tell me why my boyfriend frequently asks me if I have cleaned my teeth before we go to bed ? For me its an illogical question I always do and its just what you do so why does he ask ? He just says oh just making sure we are ready for bed. I have read about the sensory stuff but can someone elaborate ?
2 - He says he thinks he is good looking which I obviously think he is but he doesn't like photos ? He gets impatient when having a photo taken together or when I am trying to take one of him. We have been together for two years.
3 - When he needs switch off time I usually sense and then i verbalise with him that I am going to give him time alone. Just wondering if this method works for other people ? I have been reading that when this happens people seem to not want anyone in the house. Could someone elaborate on their needs an why ?
Thank you
