Hi. Fellow Aspie; plus I'm female so if I might venture something: Lots of us communicate , well, differently. We likewise tend to receive information differently; and as for how we process or interpret it? Welcome to my circus lol. Here's something my ASD son does, and my Aspie-lite dau too: Gets overwhelmed with whatever, and then overwhelms the person he's trying to communicate with. It can freak people out a bit. Even tho I know he;s doing it, even tho I freakin' know he's GONNA do it *wince* , it's a bloody tidal wave & I cannot hang. And he cannot shut up. Oh boy. And I cannot hear him anymore...OUCH

It wears people out sometimes. His former fiancee told me that they'd have done better if he'd left a few things to be discovered along the way on the gradual, yanno?

My fiance is another, and bc of the way my brain is built I just glaze over. He must must must explain explain explain (LOUDLY).

How do you react when/if you feel you are being misunderstood? Or that the other person might not be understanding you? Figuring out what is actualy going on w/a loved one is tough. I'm really sorry you're feeling so frustrated, sad, and pissed off .

Chyi
