I gain spoons being with my husband. The ONLY person that does that to me. I choose him and prioritise him. And he can tell me what he needs and I can give it to him. Been with him for 19 years, Im 38

My non autistic partner helped lead me to seeking an assessment. But before that was even on the radar I was saying things about him like “I don’t have to perform. I can just… exist.”

Boundaries from day 1. My hubby thought a cleaner was a "waste of money" when we got together so I said either we pay or he does it coz I don't have the spoons. 16 yrs later he still does it

Can’t there be an autistic dating app or something? I’m super tired of having to explain and we all know how “going out” feels.

My partner is also autistic and we’ve excepted that we will never have a “normal” romantic relationship. We’re just weird lil creatures that make out sometimes and then sit in the same room quietly

I feel like I use spoons to just hangout with him.. or spoons to set boundaries that he doesn’t register. But also I never mask around him so it’s confusing and idk if I want to continue it 😭

during my ASD assessment a lot of my answers were "yes,EXCEPT for my current partner" because he's become not just the exception,but the new rule:kindness first,patience always♥️

We're both AuDHD and have been together 9 years. It's a lot of open communication, active listening and working together as a team on chores.

I'm autistic and my partner has social anxiety and for some weird reason it works really well. I think I don't make them anxious because they never have to wonder if I'm lying or secretly mad.

I think I would make a good partner. But most ppl don’t want a relationship & don’t typically give me a chance especially after seeing anything they see as faults or challenges about me .

Find someone who replenishes your spoons! When I met my bf I had to teach him so much but he poured in more than he ever took. No one is perfect find someone willing to learn, kind & caring
