NT Aspie Marriage

My husband has autism. I’m NT.  We’ve been married for decades. I’d like to connect with other women with autistic partners to provide a support group. There’s a lot of information available to parents with autistic children and that’s how it should be.  There’s not a lot available relating to NT/ASD adult relationships. I have done some research and learned a lot but it would be good to talk to others in a similar situation.

  • I think what you are asking is perfectly resonable. I think we have to face that all couples have some issues, and autism can make things worse. It is only by finding out I am autistic in my 50's that my wife know little niggles are not me being a pain. Like just not noticing chores at home and she though I was deliberatly leaving things for her as I was lazy, in reality I just did not see it. Good luck.
