Need things to do with my aspie husband

Does it have to be doing the same thing?    It sounds like he has pastimes and you don't - what do you like to do?    What did you like when you were younger that you don't do any more because you're 'grown up'?

My wife has a vintage dolls house, she makes teddies & rag dolls, she likes Lego, painting, colouring in and lots of other things that entertain her.    Doing our own things but in the same room is just as good as doing something together.

I agree with Plastic Does it have to be doing the same thing? 

It is quite common for men and women to have different hobbies and interests, regardless of Neurotype. For example, I like making jewellery and my husband is ‘really’ into fishing. When time allows (to be fair not often with two young children), sometimes we both sit up at the dining room table with me sewing jewellery and him making fishing rigs. While people have the ‘doing’ part of their brains occupied it can make talking easier too. Why don’t you and your husband try doing your different hobbies together?

That's sort of what I meant to say... only Kitsun put it way better!
