Sample text
Some people with AS find subtle emotions hard to interpret – both in themselves and in others. Their understanding may be confined to extremes of emotion such as joy or anger (Hénault 2006). More subtle feelings may be confusing and hard to manage or even recognise. Some people with AS have admitted to deliberately provoking extreme reactions because they are unable to ‘see’ more subtle facial and bodily responses. By pushing someone to a higher state of distress, they can appreciate what emotion is being presented.

I wasn’t able to say no; I had a feeling I owed them something for letting me sleep with them. (AS male) Demands and expectations For some AS relationships, there can be issues around the NT partner craving validation and feedback that they are interesting and still valued in the relationship.

With people, the best smell is no smell at all. (AS male) Smells are very important in my love life. They can really enhance it. (AS male) Touch The physical contact of a partner is a major part of most personal relationships. To be able to receive and give loving touch is deeply intimate and special to most people. This comfort that is felt from touch from another person is not always experienced in the same way by a person with AS who has sensitivity in this area. The most commonly reported sensory issue was that of touch with almost 60 per cent of those with AS saying that they experienced an intense desire and enjoyment of certain types of touch, or alternatively an inability to tolerate close physical contact.
