Relationships

Hello,  My Grandaughter has started a relationship with a lovely young man who is

Autistic.  She and him have a great friendship and chat and laugh constantly.  Please help me to understand why sometimes he will speak and other it as if we are not there.  He seems to have done well at school with special help and when you do get him to converse he is very intelligent. He is 20 now and said he is desperate to get a job but in this climate it is not easy.  He can drive and passed his test first time so that tells you something.  What worries me is will my Grandaughter and her boyfriend ever be able to progress this relationship as I know nothing about adults with Autisum and their ability to have long term relationships and families.  Some inforo and experiences would be appreciated.
