One would think that being married is an example of a normal relationship. Could've fooled me. Sounds one of the two parties is half way out the door.
That's a huge oversimplification man, there is no such thing as a "normal" relationship, Asperger's under the best of circumstances makes having a relationship a challenge. I consider my self very lucky to be married to a woman who is open and honest with me, it's the reason we have been together for twenty years, I take no offense to what she said, I know that she loves me just the way I am. She is just having a difficult time coming to grips with the fact that there is a medical explanation for my behavior because it means that my behavior is not a matter of choice, it is simply the way I am, our trip has just taken a detour to Holland, that's all.
