  • In terms of me as the AS person supporting my wife as the NT one...?

    All.the.time.

    She confided that I frequently upset her so much she goes off and cries in another room... most of the time I didn't even realise she was that upset.

    I (we) as (probably) high-functioning ASD literally 'don't understand her'... but then the reverse is also true - except I don't get upset about it like she does, just usually frustrated... then she gets upset with me...
