I find that I generally don't trust people. Is that something that is common with Aspergers? In social situations I think I take cues from my partner to see if people are OK or not. Obviously I still might not like them though......

I think that is quite a healthy approach. Jon, you must trust your partner and best to suss someone out first before fully trusting them in time.
Scorpion, I do not have a diagnosis, but I would be just like you about the decorating. It drives my husband mad! Lol! Be proud of your high standards, they cannot help being inferior, ha, ha. Just joking.
I have to discipline myself not to say anything actually as I know he has worked so hard on it. I have to sort of do some self-coaching, saying to myself, it is not that important, it is more important we do not argue and fall out over a bit of wallpaper or a skirting board of whatever... I keep noticing it but learn to live with it. I know it is maybe not as easy as that for everyone though.
Nice to know it is not just me that is like that though
