This is a tricky one - I feel sorry for you facing this possibility. I cannot speak from experience with partners, I only have a child on the spectrum.....you could try writing something down for him, maybe suggesting you go and see the GP together...? (I only suggest writing as opposed to speaking, as it is sometimes easier to put it across on paper, and people on the spectrum understand written communication better than body language etc).
In preparation for a GP appointment, write down as much as possible to take along with you. What have you noticed about him? When does it happen? How does he react to different situations? Just anything you can think of which may help your GP make a diagnosis.
Have a look on the NAS website - they have loads of useful information. Or you could try phoning them, they are really easy to speak to and so helpful.
