I am looking to write a story with a female main character. In describing her to my wife, she pointed out that it seemed like I was describing a person who was autistic. It was a thought provoking idea that I latched onto. Since the subject of female autism is so young, it is hard to find much info (for me anyway) I want to make this character relatable and strong with my audience. I was hoping to hear from women who live with autism. Some of these may be personal. If they are, I completely understand if no one wants to share.
1) what is your love life like?
2) what was it like when you first saw the love of your life? What were your thoughts and feelings?
3)what caused you/causes you to be over stimulated
4) is it easy to become frustrated?
5) you lost a loved one, what did you think of feel?
6) how empathic are you?
I have more questions that would like to ask later. I hope I am not being offensive or invasive. Thank you for your time
