Is anyone's dh aspergic and/or passive aggressive?

[cheesehead]

If so, how do you deal with it? I've read that the marriage failure rate for those with aspergers is 80% I'm currently separated fro my dh but am still missing some things about him but wonder if i went back to him, is there anything i can do to help cope with:

his lack of positive emotion
expressing how he feels
taking responsibility for his behaviour
lack of social skill
lack of interest in sex
controlling his temper.

cheesehead, have you contacted the National Autistic Society? They may be able to put you in contact with trained counsellors. When I went to counselling I was talking about ASD in relation to a child, and the counsellor was really knowledgeable - surprisingly so.

Our neighbours have been married 50 years, and he has Asperger's. I know life has sometimes been difficult for them, but they're generally very happy.

It must be very difficult for both of you. What about posting on the Special Needs board? There are several posters there with Asperger's, or married to dh's with an ASD who might be able to advise you.
