Where is the best place to meet a prospective partner?; 2. How do I know if she is attracted to me?; 3. How do I ask her out?; 4. Where do I take her on the first date and what can I do to make a good first impression?; 5. What should I talk about on the first date?; 6. How do I know when or if to take it further?; 7. When is it OK to expect sex?; 8. What if she rejects me? How can I avoid this happening?; TheRelationship.
14. I feel like she purposely pushes me until I react and then acts the victim and blames me for getting angry. Why does she do this?15. Why is she always criticising me?; 16. Why does she exaggerate so often?; 17. If I keep quiet it is wrong and if I speak up it is wrong! Why?; 18. My only purpose seems to be to work and earn the money. Is this all I am worth? Why doesn't she appreciate all I do for her (and the family)?; 19. Why does my partner expect me to come in from work and immediately start discussing the day with her?
20. My partner keeps nagging me to get rid of some of my possessions. She does not understand how much stress this causes me. What can I do?21. My wife does not seem to know how to load a dishwasher and yet when I rearrange the contents she gets really mad at me. Why won't she just do things the correct way?; 22. Why does my partner constantly disrupt my plans and routines?; 23. Why does my partner have to announce everything we do on Facebook? Surely I am entitled to some privacy in my life?
24. She constantly accuses me of not listening to her and forgetting what she has told me. Is she making this up to put me down or do I really have memory problems?25. My partner complains I spend too much time on the internet and not enough time with her, and yet when I try to spend time with her she just wants to watch soaps! I think she is being unreasonable. Is she?; 26. My partner discovered I had been looking at porn on the internet. She is now threatening me with divorce. Why is she taking it so out of proportion?
9. Why are women so complicated?10. I feel that whatever I do it will be wrong, especially when she is upset. If I say nothing it is wrong, if I say something that will be wrong too. So is it all my fault?; 11. I get to a point that I feel I want to run away, as I cannot discuss or argue any more. Why won't she just let me go?; 12. She asks me what I feel or why I love her and before I can answer she has become reactive/angry/upset/critical. Why?; 13. She tells me I have a communication problem, yet I have been complimented on my communication at work. Who is right here?

Positive, practical and realistic, this book offers a wealth of information on women, dating and relationships for men with Asperger Syndrome (AS). Many AS men are totally confused and bewildered by women and relationships and find it hard to know what to do, what to say and how to get it right. For these men, understanding the emotional side to relationships and women's needs can be a complete mystery and they often get it disastrously wrong. This practical handbook provides the answers to Asperger men's most frequently asked questions about women, dating and relationships.
