I have recently been diagnosed with having aspergers and for some strange reason I have started obsessionally reading every website and ever book I can find haha!
The more I read about it, the more I see aspergers in my girlfriend:
No empathy
Hypersensivity to smells, tastes, textures and hates people sitting too close to her.
Dreadful social skills, she hasn't made a new friend for years.
Things have to be done her way or she can't stand it.
Takes everything people say incredibly literally.
The list goes on...
One of her brothers has been diagnosed as it's quite clear to see that her other brother and her dad also have it.
The problem is whenever I try to talk about any of the things that she does, she gets very defensive and upset and denies that she does any of these things.
What would be the best way to approach this with her???
