Synopsis
I didn't write this book to destroy my ex I actually started to write the book for myself as it felt cathartic to write everything down. My ex ASOH was not a bad man he did not mean to do the things he did but the lack of love and affection and the complete absence of emotional reciprocity nearly destroyed me. My ex did not know he had Asperger's neither did I it was only after I had left him and he moved on straight away that I started to research why he had no feelings. How could you move on from a 13 year relationship without a backward glance? He had rejected me emotionally for almost 12 of the 13 years I was with him and now he had delivered the final rejection, he had moved on without a care.While researching and trying to make sense of the last 13 years of my life I came across so many differing personality types, none of which fit my ex until I came across Asperger's or High Functioning Autism as it is now known. AS fit my ex like a glove, the lack of warmth, affection, conversation and poor social interactions he was classic AS. I hope by reading this book that it might save just one of you lonely Neuro Typical (normal) partners from the painful situation I found myself in. Don't read this book if you don't want read swearing or you want to salvage your relationship. This book is not about making an AS/NT relationship work it's about the damage done to the NT spouse by being in this kind of relationship. If my story offends you, tough, it's true totally true I have a right to give the story from my point of view and not from a totally empathy free AS point of view.I am aware that I have had some bad reviews for this book and I am certain that these reviews were left by someone with AS. I have been told that this book is hate speech, its not hate speech and I will not be silenced by bad reviews. People with AS like to be described as sensitive and misunderstood not as the totally empathy free beings that they are. If you are in a relationship with someone with AS they will cause you significant emotional damage. Life with someone with AS is not pretty and sweet its hard work its exhausting and the best you can hope for is to learn coping strategies to deal with them. Even if you do learn coping strategies to live with someone with AS this will still leave you exhausted and you will still have a one sided relationship.
