How many of you have experience with a partner who has Autism, while going thru Peri? from everything I've read it makes it even worse for both of us.
I'm M48 she's F46 .. I've read through a number of posts here and though I'm comforted by the knowledge that I'm not alone, I'm seriously struggling with how this is affecting me .. she's been part of my life since we were teenagers and we've been together for 6 years. Currently she's not talking to me, going on 4 days, because I brought up my feelings ... She had a partial hysterectomy two years ago that put her in the express lane for this, so that "Menopause is over when the periods stop for a full year" isn't a metric I can use ... I'm devoted to this woman, and as much as she tells me to "Do your research" most of it doesn't speak for her .. we don't live together, but I'm still going to her place regularly to try and make things easier for her while struggling to feel like I'm noticed or appreciated at all ... Apologize for the cognitive mess this post is, talking about my feelings has never been easy for me
