I broke up with my last boyfriend about 6 months ago. My reasoning was that he would blow me off for his online drama and obsessions. He would also let other close lady friends flirt with him and talked to another girl what a relationship with her would be like. He ddin't even seem to notice that it hurt me and thought it was all reasonable since he wasn't actually cheating. He didn't seem to understand the emotions behind it or how I felt. A week or 2 after breaking up with him, I was diagnosed with Aspergers. Now that I've thought on it, I think he has[/quote] Aspergers, too. It would explain a lot of his behavior including poor communication, inability to feel sympathy, obsessions with certain subjects, high IQ... it all fits. I feel like I should tell him this, but I'm afraid of how he'll take it. On one hand he's been trying to find an explanation for how he acts and feels, but he also might take offense. I was really mad during the breakup and it was pretty nasty. We've barely talked since then and his new best friend is a girl who hates my guts simply because I broke up with the guy. She's also really possessive and a bad influence for him.
*sigh* I should have just stayed his "sister", not become his girlfriend. I still feel responsible for and worry about him. He's been getting into trouble lately and I don't know if it's best to leave him be and focus on my own Asperger issues or try to talk to him again.
(btw, this is my first post here. I hope I'm doing this right.
