Overload and breakup

So first time here. 43 year old mail with two kids. 

my names Graham. I’ve been in a 2 year relationship after a divorce and discovered I’m autistic. 

2 days ago after the pressure to say I would have more kids I said ok to it but my brain has been fighting it and saying no

after speaking to my girlfriend she has ended it saying she can’t coupe with me and that my head is too much for her 

I’m devastated and I know it’s the autism. 


I now don’t know if I can meet anyone else because I will always be like this and I don’t like being alone either  

i have anxiety too and it’s all really bad right now  and I have had to stay with a mate and also at my ex wife’s as I have nowhere else to go  my kids are really upset too and that’s hard 

I hope she can contact me again and maybe make up but so far totally ignoring me and that’s hard for me but I feel it’s a bad end to something that was amazing  

anyone know of any chat services with people who are autistic ways to meet people locally who are the same?

  • if she was applying the pressure to have more kids when you don't want them - then in my view, regardless of Autism, think you're better out of that relationship tbh.

    don't put the blame on yourself or your autism

    Understand it's raw now, but hopefully you'll feel better soon
