Summary
A look at how to overcome common difficulties and maintain a loving relationship with an AS partner.
Although having Asperger syndrome (AS) can make romantic relations difficult, having a fulfilling relationship with an Asperger man is certainly not impossible. A woman in love with a man with AS may interpret his difficulties with communication and socialisation as a lack of interest in the relationship. He may vacillate between being gentle and caring to seeming cold and distant. She may find his behaviour hard to understand, resulting in feelings of loneliness, isolation and confusion. This book shows how to overcome these difficulties and maintain a loving relationship with an AS partner.
From an unwillingness to show affection in public or even sleep in the same bed to problems holding down a job, this book looks at 22 common traits that women may discover when they are dating, living with or married to a man with Asperger's syndrome. Rudy Simone explores the complications of Asperger's relationships with honesty and understanding, drawing on research and personal experience to inform and advise women with AS partners. She offers helpful tips for improving the relationship and finding fulfilment both individually and as a couple.
This book will help women to understand the male Asperger's mind and, equally, it can help men with AS to see things from their partner's perspective. It will also be of interest to counsellors working with couples where the male partner has Asperger's syndrome.

Helpful advice
The book gives an fairly accurate portrayal of life with an ASD husband/ partner.
A lot of the advice, although it may appear simple, is helpful.

Sending women back decades!
The only thing this book will do. Is, ensure you resent your marriage more. Basically the advice is compromise and keep sweet. Please don't! Please give more respect to yourself first and those with autism. Yes compromise is important. but from both sides Making the suggestion that people with autism can't find some middle ground, is damaging to all. If you can't find middle ground then it won't last. Don't damage yourself more then you already are to have sought out this book. If you are looking for a book like this. Then invest in yourself more. Love yourself more. Reclaim back who you were. you can still love your autistic partner. but love yourself more to be able to gauge better at what you are willing to live without and what you need for your own mental health. This book is a road to resentment and incredibly unwell partners. And their autistic partners wondering what on earth happened for them to hate me so much. Don't let it get that far. Give yourself love to be able to love them as they are.
