I sometimes think I’m autistic but don’t think it’s worth getting a diagnosis. My boyfriend (almost 3 years now) said when we first meant he thought I was. He told me this a few months ago when I was going through an existential crisis of am I/aren’t I. Full support. I suppose it helped that’s he’s ADHD and was in special classes when we was young. He only expects me to be me in all my awkwardness. Though, my sensory issues with too much sound, smells and sometimes visuals annoy him because he likes all that. Oh and I forget he can’t read my mind when I respond to him internally but that’s just a joke now. The differences will be there but it’s the love and support that matter.
