Guest guest Posted December 3, 2010 Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 I am enjoying lots of the comments and would love to hear from spouse of aspie and how things are when you retire from work. I am an very compassionate person and get lots of my "hugs" from the people I work with and their praise for what I am doing. That will end when I retire in a few months, and I am almost afraid of the sudden emotional void. I know that I will look into doing some volunteer work, but I am not sure how to explain this fear to my aspie, or even how to ask him to help me so that he will understand. Any thoughts out there?

Guest guest Posted December 3, 2010 Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 My aspie hubbie recently retired and hasn’t got a clue about what he should be doing with himself – I’m exaggerating a bit but he is spending a whole lot of time with the TV and facebook poker… I would definitely find some volunteer work that provides you with emotional time – and just let him know that otherwise, you will be a “screaming, crazy woman.” Hadassah Lynn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
