Hamrick and Nebeker live together in a Jackson, Miss., apartment, yet they have separate bedrooms, eat meals apart and spend most of their time focused on their own interests.

This unusual setup is how Hamrick and Nebeker, who are both autistic, make their relationship work.

  • @Dratini999 In know that! The point I'm making is that it dpesn't say anywhere they have aspergers. It just.says they have autis. How do.we know it's not just high finctioning Classic.Autism?

  • @ChocolateisIsNice google it! You can't describe Aperger's in a few words. Every Aspie is different as well, but all have problems with social interactions.

  • I was married once. I hated being in the same bedroom as him. I hate small talk and I didn't like the pressure of trying to adopt a neurotypical relationship. I have aspergers and want to be in a relationship where I can just be me. I applaud these two people for making their relationship their own.

  • @ClamCrunchy We do, really -- sometimes to our own detriment.

  • @bobgreenwade I've read that people with autism also tend to be very loyal.

  • @yarfness69 lol wtf

  • @AspieMBProject2012 Keep trying. I have had loads of dates in the past 4 months none of which there was any chemistry. But I know I will find Mrs Right soon. Try Plenty of Fish and match.com. But don't give up.

  • How do you know they have aspergrs? It doesn't say that in the clip.
