[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I like how autistic people are the problem here. Maybe dont marry someone you barely understand. But I guess if you’re desperate for a ring and have a superficial checklist in mind, these types of poor matches are inevitable. [/quote]

Why doesn’t the autistic spouse in this scenario have any agency or autonomy? Also, I don’t see many unreasonable or unrealistic expectations in this thread. These are people who expected a partner and co-parent and instead wound up with hostile partners who dump all parenting responsibilities on them and are not supportive or emotionally present.

I actually have empathy for all parties here but the idea that these women are just gold diggers is misogynist and victim-blaming. It sounds like most of these men were not diagnosed before marriage. How could these women know? And it is a disorder that gets worse as it goes untreated, and especially with stress, so it would not be that hard to overlook quirks at first only for things to deteriorate as you age and have kids.[/quote]
