Anonymous with ASD diagnosis- I'm in a new relationship with a man that I strongly suspect has Aspergers (I know -its not in the recent DSM)/HFA. I want to do all I can to understand how he thinks and perceives things. He has a great sense of humor and uses puns often. I asked and he told me he is fine with touch. I'm seeing aversions to some foods, but nothing major. I try to speak directly, concretely and I ask for clarification from him when I'm not sure I really understand what he is talking about. But I'm sure I'm just starting to understand him. Do you have any advice for me?
Thanks.
