My boyfriend (whom I love very much and vice versa), has a fetish called "teratophila". The love or attraction to monsters. *Sighs* He has looked up: "Frankenstein fetish, monster girls fetish, and cute monster boys". (He's pansexual, which I have no problem with). He does have Aspergers Syndrome, so I understand that he has been attached to monsters longer than he has me. And I don't care that he watches porn or anything, but it just gets under my skin that he talks and goes on about monsters than he ever has about me. Am I being stupid? I know fantasies and fetishes are just that. But, I feel envious??

Hello Jellyfloor: Welcome to PsychCentral. PC is a great place to gain support, learn strategies for handling mental health concerns, & to make internet friends. There are many wonderfully supportive members here on PsychCentral.

With regard to your post, no you're not being stupid. Feeling envious is a common human emotion. I think my wife is probably sometimes envious of my computer! On the other hand, this is a situation that could become troublesome to your relationship over time. So, from my perspective, some couples counseling around this concern might be in order.

All new members' first 5 posts are reviewed before they become available for viewing by the community. So there may be a delay between the time that you submit your first 5 posts & the point at which they become available for viewing. However, once these initial posts have been reviewed & approved, your posts will become available for viewing as soon as you click the submit button.

There are quite a few forums in which you will be able to post. If you have not already done so, be sure to look through the listing in the Forum Index:

http://forums.psychcentral.com/

Each forum is listed in the Index along with a brief description of it's purpose.

Also, once your first 5 posts have been reviewed & approved, you will be able to participate in our chat rooms where you'll have the opportunity to correspond with other PC members in real time. These chat rooms are listed on the community calendar showing the dates & times they meet:

Forums at Psych Central - Calendar

Should you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact any member of the Community Liaison Team. Best wishes...

Would he be into some kind of role play with you?

Isn't it a trait of people with Aspergers to have an obsession?
Maybe you could watch these movies together? (:

I agree with The Skeezyks in that couples counseling could probably help this situation. It will help you come to grips with his interest and maybe allow you both to find a way to make it work together.
