But the question is then: what should they do? Describing them as cold and ostracizing them because of that obviously make them feel bad. Do they still deserve love and intimacy and physical affection as any other human being? or they are destined to be alone and they have to accept it as a fact?
This describes my cousin spot on, he is capable of love and caring, he does have empathy just not expressed in the same way as many. He can and does make multiple faux pas and misjudgements because he reads situations wrongly, but he adores his wife and she loves him as he is.
