Understanding Partner who is high functioning autistic

Hello, I’m reaching out to the partners of this with autism.

I’m trying to understand but feel upset a lot of the time, it’s 3am and we’re in different rooms.....

  • I am an aspie married to an aspie. What Plastic says makes a lot of sense to me.

    I would  try to calm down, both of you. Otherwise you can't communicate and misunderstandings and misinterpretations pile up and you get reactions to reactions to reactions and it all goes on a red herring chase.

    Try just to agree to do something you both like doing, like watching a movie with a pizza and try to connect, south each-other.
