there are many very positive and happy autism relationships be that romantic or friendship.
However we must acknowledge that there are some autism relationships that are not so positive, why?
Autistic people can a lot of complex needs and these needs vary from person to person on the spectrum.
That being said we can learn to understand autistic people and accommodate complex needs if we are in a relationship with an autistic person.
1 - Listen, the first part we need to consider is listening deeply to the needs of the autistic person no matter how small or odd they may seem.
2 - Discuss compromise and meeting in the middle with some issues that could be relationship deal breakers.
3 - Make a plan of action, know where the triggers are and make a plan to pivot away from them as and when they occur.

Comment “I am autistic!” so I can notice you!

33 years with a neurodivergent husband and 20 with a similar son. Takes a lot of patience (both ways) but it’s worth it

[@sammylangford8858]

Thanks for the advice I find I have melt downs a lot because I have severe arthritis and it affects my daily tasks badly. Like if I try to go out for a day even just to visit family by the time I get home I can barely walk and am in an immense amount of pain and then it takes me days to start to feel better. And this affects my relationships badly as well.

I've been in a neurodivergent relationship for almost 19 years and agree with everything you said! My husband struggles with #2 and I have learned that #3 is so important! It makes the time we do spend together much more enjoyable.

I’m in a six and a half year relationship with the most beautiful and faithful fiancé I could ever ask for. (Been engaged recently!)

Congratulations!! Started planning yet? Where is the reception!!!!

I am 100% sure if I were to be evaluated that I would be diagnosed as on the spectrum, but it is very difficult in the US at least to get diagnosed. Especially if you live in a rural area like I do. I’d like to get a diagnosis but was told insurance wouldn’t cover the evaluation and that it would cost 2-4 thousand out of pocket just to get a diagnosis. And that is just too much money to be worth it.

I really really really love this video, I never really knew why I'd get upset over certain things until I watched this video. It really made me understand things better, hopefully I'll be able to put it to good use. 😊 I now know why I absolutely love making organizational charts. Thank you 😊

Hey from The States!

[@gabrielledenby]

Thanks for the video! I enjoyed it and found it thought-provoking and helpful!

[@TheAspieWorld]

Thank you so much for the comment!

I seem to have autism, and for some time I dated an epileptic woman, since her mind was damaged we had some communication issues.

[@2okaycola]

Snuggling sounds nice. I remember that

[@nicolesavitsky4476]

Can you please link the website/app? I would love to check it out.

[@whracing]

Is this a late release, av seen you mention the collage app before xx

[@TheAspieWorld]

Yes the app is live and is awesome I am on there😆

[@whracing]

@@TheAspieWorldI see, cool. Hope your well. Do you have an understanding of Hyperacusis. I believe that it is this process/disorder that synchronises two quiet background songs together into one and amplify as it when listening or tripple layered music

⁠my 27 yr old autistic son signed up on it today and got an email that his video was not approved and sounds like no instructions or information given. Doesn’t sound neurodivergent friendly so far. Do you know the creators? This is concerning since it seemed like just another “rejection” or not fitting in situation sadly.

I was going to try but the video interview immediately put me off

I have tried to get into Collage several times. All unsuccessful for one reason or another. They don’t respond to emails. I even got as far as giving payment info and then couldn’t log in. It is driving me to meltdown I am so upset. Now I have missed the deadline for the free year! Any idea how i cancel the subscription…anyone??

[@sadie6060]

I’ve tried registering and have gone through everything up to them sending me a OTP but I’m not receiving it 🤯

[@TessaCoker]

@@sadie6060 I gave up and cancelled my subscription. Probably would have wasted time !!

[@sadie6060]

@@TessaCoker that’s a shame, guess they must be having some technical difficulties. I couldn’t get onto their website either. Feel a bit weird about them having my weird video interview that I uploaded 😐

@@sadie6060 God, yes! I did 3 different vids trying to sign up. All were awful. I don't do FaceTime, Zoom or any Telehealth. No one would have friended me anyway probably 😉
