Long Synopsis:
Although having Asperger's 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 socialization 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 behavior 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 fulfillment 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 counselors working with couples where the male partner
has Asperger's Syndrome. Rudy Simone is a writer and Asperger's Syndrome
educator who lives in Western New York.
