Obessive Relationships.

chloeoliverarnie15

Hello. 

I just need some advice with a problem I'm experiencing.

So a part of my Autism is obessive relationships - basically a relationship which I get completely and utterly imersed in and cannot seem to leave. I have been thinking of this person continulously and no matter how much distraction I try and use, they never leave my mind - sometimes I feel like the only way to get rid of it is to see them - but that would require seeing them most days and that's not realistic. I get high emotions when thinking of this person and it can sometimes become very distressing. No amount of distraction seems to help me. 

So I would really appreciate any advice that anyone has in terms of coping with this. Please feel free to share your own experiences as well. 

Thanks very much.

  • I've had a bit of difficulty with this. The other side of the problem, though, is knowing when someone IS interested. I've got a habit of assuming someone I'm attracted to won't be interested because it's probably only me daydreaming. As a result of this I've only dated people I don't know very well who approach me and ask me out, rather than anyone I've got to know over a period of time before getting involved. This hasn't worked out very well at all.
