where would I start discussion about having a partner with Aspergers?

I am not his parent or carer yet I know there must be many of us who think we are married or in a relationship with someone who is on the spectrum.

Parents
  • I have aspergers and actually find it rather offensive insinuating those with aspergers are 'self-centred and unemotional'. If you find that those are the only 'symptoms', then try doing some research before jumping to conclusions. If you think, for other less ignorant reasons, that he has aspergers then ask him to get evaluated/assessed.

    Consider calling a helpline for basic information before asking him though.
