Interesting question. I don't have an answer. I don't have MI (nothing formally diagnosed at least)yet I feel everything very strongly. I don't believe I feel anything less strong than those with mi.

Interesting that my husband who isn't neurotypical is the most "normal" of all men I've been with lol how ironic

As about love, my long term ex of 9 years loved ( and still does) me with the most intensity. Yet he was too unwell for me to go on with him. Substance abuse and self medicated depression etc often love isn't enough.

As about neediness men who loved me the most ( my alcoholic ex) and my current husband were also needy to a degree. My husbands neediness comes from abusive family of origin though not his MI.
