My boyfriend and I met during entrance exams 3 years ago. We took a test to quiz out of a class, and he was the first to say "screw it, I'll just take the class"and I was the second. He has cerebral palsy and almost certainly Aspergers (just not "officially" diagnosed). I have depression, anxiety, and possibly either a personality disorder (was tentatively considered having Avoidant PD when I was younger and it does fit really well) or possibly on the spectrum myself. His natural loyalty and honesty made it much easier for me to attach to him (because of my past I have a really hard time trusting and attaching properly) and because his sister and best friend have gone through similar mood/emotional issues he just seems to already know the way I need him to be, if that makes sense. He was accepting of me, kind to me, and helped me feel included/important so I really didn't care if he was on the spectrum (which I think he told me about 2-3 months into dating?) or if he technically had a disability (I only say technically because he's fully able since he's been able to adapt around it). I'm not sure why he's so accepting of me sometimes...and we make a pretty good team. I'm usually good at the stuff he's not so good at and vice versa. Plus having a whole bunch of things in common didn't hurt.

By the way, I never really had to tell him about my issues. They're pretty obvious to anyone who tries to get close to me (that's why I make people stay away ). As soon as we started dating I lapsed into a pretty severe depression for a time and my attachment issues are pretty obvious (very clingy, bad separation anxiety). I think I would have scared away most people. I don't think most people would have the patience to deal with it while I form a secure attachment (which to be fair, is STILL not completely secure, but it's much closer).
