She's saying "you can't even prove my existence" is an Aspie-type argument. I'm new to my self-DX so I'm just guessing here, but I think my NT wife would say I come up with some byzantine, arcane arguments that just leave her throwing up her hands and saying, "Oh I give up!" I think Korrigan's husband was heading down one of those roads and she thought it was funny, now that she recognizes it as one of "our" traits. Of course, as I'm learning to remind myself, I could be wrong.Wink

Yeah not bad. It is good that you can laugh over this. I think trying to treat either of you as broken or wrong is a bad way to go but if you can accept the differences and laugh over those differences you have really done well. I wish in some ways my own relationship with my ex-wife had this insight in our marriage.
Instead the differences helped consume and destroy the marriage.
Absolutely. I just think such self-awareness does my heart good (I will look at anything help at this point Smile ) and I think the fact that most of the population is not on the spectrum, these relationships and even ill-fated ones like mine will occur. Yet there is room for difference, humour, acceptance and love. As I say, it does my heart good.
