my husband has aspergers we have been married 10 years-13 together(since high school. I love that there is more and more info comming out to help us keep building our realtionship!!!

[autismhangout]

@cnuber01 - Yes! I see you've already discovered Louise Weston, too. Lots of good advice out there today.

I am married to a man I believe to have autism. Our oldest son was diagnosed to Asperger's syndrome but my husband now believes he has it. I am not really sure if he does or not but he has some traits. What if he isn't sensitive to sounds or touch?

[autismhangout]

@arikafannieheath - Why not encourage him to take the test himself? There are some simple ones online, if he's not yet ready for something official.

Hi folks. This is Craig Evans of Autism Hangout. I'm sorry Rudy's audio is difficult to hear. I've changed the microphone set up since this interview and it's improved, but sometime SKYPE just makes what's bad even worse.

I can tell you, Rudy's book is exceptional. :)

I am so interested but cant hear the sound

[Throweasy03]

Hey hangout, I would re do this and try to get better audio from Simone. It is hard to understand. Maybe you can get a better mic or change mic position? Maybe upload a video with less compression ie better quality mpeg bigger file size. it's hard following her audio it is muffled. Good luck

@cnuber01 thats inspiring, i feel asperger's hurts men more than women since men traditionally, majority of the time always have to make the first move and all the other moves, initiate the date and relationship

[izzgal7]

pitiful audio. just do it over please, and make the information understandable.

[MissMeowsic]

What if I have Asperger's as well? (Women are different in the emotions department) - How is a man who also has Asperger's going to accommodate my needs as well? Or is it just a bad match?

[antiHUMANDesigns]

So sad that the sound was so bad, I can't watch it. :(

Both myself & my boyfriend have Asperger's Syndrome. We actually have A LOT in common from being Followers in Christ to enjoying video games to being fans of Anime & so on. He asked me out in August of this year, but I have strong feelings for him. He also fixed my laptop for free by the generosity of his own heart instead of spending hundreds of dollars. We've been on dates, but we treat each other as being "equal" for both of us as Aspies. My James also supports me learning Japanese too!

@cnuber01 Im glad to hear that. So since you did not find out about it until 4 years into the marriage I'm guessing that means that aspergers really is hard to detect

[cnuber01]

@somotastic21 No i did not find out he had Aspergers until about 4 years in our realtionship. We are still to this day in love and are so happy together. We just work with one anothers little differences. We also have two wonderfull children!

[DChatc]

@DChatc It took a long time for our genetic profile to develope, and it is still not finished, I would hate to see all that work and effort, which has survvied the adversity of a hostile environment, to suddenly be ruined and diluted simply because our would-be hosts have some issues with panphelia.

[DChatc]

i do not want their women really, even if they can put on a good act, it is still mi misigenation as far as I am concerned. I want no part of the non-Asperger's tainted bloodlines!

The twenty-two things: #1 thru #22, find someone else.

Am I missing something here?
