Synopsis

So, your partner is autistic. Or you suspect they might be. And you're wondering, 'What does this mean for my relationship?' This guide is for you. Learn key communication skills for succeeding in a neurologically mixed relationship, gain a better understanding of your partner's mental processes, troubleshoot your sex life, and level up your appreciation for their relationship strengths. Autistic-allistic relationships, as well as relationships between two neurodiverse people, can work out splendidly, but there are a few consistent and predictable areas where they can get in trouble, which you can work through together once you know how to spot them.
