What is she implying?

Post Reply New Topic

I once overheard a mother giving her 17 year old son with aspergers a lecture.

She said too him "you a very mixed up about relationships in the dating world"

I know there is not much info but in a bit more detail what is she implying about hers sons attitude in regards too the dating world? some people who know the 17 year old.... well when they hear him speak they says its like hearing an 10 year old speak.

Jamesy there isn't a lot to go on so I can't answer your question. What I will say is read more topics here in Love & Dating.
There are people upwards of 30-40 that still have abstract views on relationships due to inexperience or a vicious cycle of anxiety and rejection.

It's not unusual for an aspie teen to have it all wrong about dating / relationships, let alone an NT teen., It's a stage in life which is a developmental one. It's the rite of passage. There is still a lot to learn yet for someone this age under any circumstances.

I don't think the mother meant harm in what she said, just that the son shouldn't go swimming out of his depth and test the waters.

Sounds like what they said is that he's too immature.
