[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, he sounds like a nice person who is on the spectrum. My young adult son with ADHD and autism communicates in the same way. If you want to be friends (or more), please expect to do all the social heavy lifting.

He told me he has ADHD and anxiety. What would be the best way to communicate with him in order not to overwhelm him and keep it enjoyable for myself too? [/quote]

Just like you are. You can ask if he wants to talk on the phone every once in a while. And be ready for bursts of communication - followed by long stretches of nothing.

I'm like this with a lot of people, too. I go through a period where I am eager to message back and forth for two days. But then I'm sort of done for a while. I might not want to talk to anyone or might want to talk to someone else. ADHD is part of it for me - I have some anxiety but I don't think that's driving any of this.

Take him on his terms! Otherwise you're going to have to marry him and live together.[/quote]
