[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As the (female) aspie in the relationship, it’s not like we purposely trap our partner. It’s just the nature of aging with Aspergers. The masking that is almost easy in your twenties becomes incredibly difficult to sustain once you’re into your forties. It’s like a muscle wearing out from overuse. [/quote] Ugh. At least you have enough self awareness to accept your Dx and masking. Most asd men do not.[/quote] Does your DH actually have a professional diagnosis or did you diagnose him? Social ability is distributed on a bell curve, same as athletic abiliy or anything else. Half of us people are below average, and some are a standard dev below. The psychologist who wrote the autism dx criteria in the DSM V often says that many socially awkward people don’t have autism. [/quote]
