Has anyone tried this? I'm on the verge of separation - too long a story to go into here, but have posted many times over the years and have been unhappy for too long. Now have 2 kids with complex medical conditions, and cannot cope with DH in the same house any more. However, whereas I used to think he was selfish twat, I've come to the realisation over the last couple of years that he has Aspergers. Undiagnosed, but quite definitely. His GP was useless and he won't come to see mine (in true Aspie style.) So I'm at the end of my tether as relationships in the house are tense and pretty grim. He drives the DC and me round the bend. BUT he is essentially a good person, and tries hard to be a good Dad. He still loves me and will not want to separate. I've no idea if I still love him, as it's buried under years of anger, frustration and the stress of dealing with the kids medical problems. I just don't have the energy to live in the same house with him and we need a break, otherwise it will be divorce. I actually think we would all get on well, if he just didn't live here! I know that sounds silly, but other people with partners on the spectrum have gone down that road. It won't be easy, will cost a lot, and he'll shoot the idea down in flames, but has anyone tried it? I'm envisaging him in nice flat nearby, with his own friggin tv, Sky, etc etc.
