My older son is officially Aspergerian, but it didn’t get it from the neighbors, so we’re in a similar boat.

I lucked out by meeting THE perfect woman for me the first week of Freshman Year. But it took another 13 years before she realized it.

During that time, I had no problem dating in college, where everyone’s always smushed together and you all live within walking distance etc. After college I had a very lonely 9 years, as it was MUCH, MUCH harder dating as an adult.

My parents are both engineers.

I dated for the first time as a sophomore in college and while I learned a lot from that relationship, I wouldn’t say it was a healthy one either.

Then I met the hubby online and crushed on him hard (to the point of figuring out when he was online and being sure I was too) and things moved from there.
