DS has never had a relationship - I believe he has autism traits which present as socially awkward at times. but he won't get a diagnosis. His father has never been in his life and I am a single parent. He has had a couple of very short term but these have not lasted more than 3 dates if that -
He takes care of himself very well and is very respectful etc and is attracted to girls as I hear him talking to his friends on the phone occasionally. He is off on another boys holiday this year to another party island - but I am a bit sad that he hasnt had the experience of having someone to care For and vice Versa . I.e birthdays, Xmas, valentines even weekends or just the company of someone he cares for. He says he isn't gay and likes girls but just hasn't met anyone who is interested in him too. He works and goes to the gym regular,cooks and does his own laundry and 1/2 a month goes clubbing with friends. He also goes out for drinks with work. It seems that none of his group of friends have b/f or g/f. He now gets annoyed if I ask him anything about a g/f. Has anyone had experience of this and do I just stop taking an interest.
