Have you ever been dumped for being autistic? [I Live With Autism]

I’ve been dumped three times because of my autism (Asperger’s).

One guy found out that I have autism and distanced himself from me and then he said he didn’t want to date someone with a disability and broke my heart. (July-August 2011)

The second time I got dumped my boyfriend at the time asked me what is one thing about me that he doesn’t know. I hesitant to tell him but I just told him about my Asperger’s. He had no idea what that was and I had to explain to him. Everything was fine but then a month later he also broke things off with me. (September 2012 - March 2013)

And then my current ex-boyfriend I dated for three months (January-April 2021) went behind my back and cheated on me with another girl and he didn’t want to be with a woman with Asperger’s.

I’m afraid that I’m never going to get married or have a family of my own because no man’s gonna wanna there a woman with autism (Asperger’s). I guess I meant to stay single. I’m 27 i’m three years away of turning 30.

Nope. All my relationships always ended in a massive fight, lots of yelling, screaming and carrying on.

@Allelse oh that really sucks. That’s happened to me too and I got very anxious

@ElizabethBabe1994 I'm sorry but look you're still young and a lot of people are having families later in life, so that things can be more stable.
