[quote=Anonymous]You need to recognize her limitations. My husband is on the autism spectrum and has never had any friends. I cannot ask him to change this fundamental aspect of himself. I make my own friends. Do we do couple dinners with other people? Only with two other families who are fine with my husband zoning out of the conversation at some point. They get that he's not rude, and we've all helped each other through some very hard times (four bouts of cancer plus other hospitalizations between three families). I'm a socially anxious introvert. But I can still make more friends than my husband, so the burden falls on me. And OP, it's OK to not be in the hip crowd and only keep a very small circle of friends. That's what we do. [/quote]
