[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks. I’ll comment more on the significance when the OP replies to me. [/quote] It doesn’t matter. If he’s senior and high income it’s because he’s masking his ASD and work addiction is his hyperinterest. He comes home at 6 or 7 totally spent, needs to selfishly decompress and not talk to anyone after work or the weekends. If he’s junior or bouncing around jobs due to being socially awkward ASD, then he still can’t connect with people is socially know what to do when. Maybe he could memorize some greetings, or conversational questions or be more fun tagging along. Less of an ego than the former profile. But either way the spouse and kids are in their own. The father / husband is checked out. [/quote] No. My analysis of the situation is taking a totally different track than that. You’re quite a long way off the mark of why I’m asking about his work life. As someone who’s been around since the Beatles were new, I’ve eventually learned that there are really not that many different personality types and associated behavior manifestations. I’m a reserved person myself, and not a know-it-all, but after this many decades it doesn’t take me long to say to myself “AHA… I’ve seen THIS situation before.” Thus I’m reserving judgment until the OP responds with answers. (1) What topics of conversation did the OP spend the day discussing? (2) What book was the husband reading? (3) What is the husband’s relative success in his career field, commensurate with his tenure in that role? There are specific reasons why I’ve posed those questions, and probably more depth to them that may be apparent on the surface. But I need the OP to return to the thread and answer them honestly. The fact that she’s abandoned the thread or won’t reply is starting to give me an idea of what’s going on. And/or it indicates that she’s ashamed of the answers. But I’ll wait patiently and see and not say anything more. Thanks, Annie [/quote] Get a grip, Annie. OP does not owe you answers to your ridiculous questions. [/quote] It’s perfectly OK if she doesn’t reply (and apparently she’s not coming back at all) but that’s as much of a tell as anything if she won’t / can’t respond. If she wants free advice from a forum then she’s going to be subject to follow-up questions from me. Like it or lump it. Now I reckon she’s ashamed of the truth that folks are revealing to her here. Annie. [/quote]
