Yes, its hard but its a battle I want to fight! <br /><br />I want to recommend a book for you that I think has been really really helpful to me in the last few months in coping with some of the challenges of my marriage. Its called "Sacred Marriage." I was attracted to it because the subtitle is "What if God designed marriage to make you Holy more than to make you happy" or something like that. I bought it one week when I was afraid that my very young marriage would never be happy, hoping to change my focus to allowing it to make me holy. Well the truth is, with a bit of an attitude adjustment (and now some understanding about Aspergers!) I actually really CAN have a happy marriage most of the time but it should NOT be my main focus. Sanctification is wayyy more valuable than that! Its a wonderful book and I think I would recommend it to any couple coping with the challenges of an NT/AS marriage. <br /><br />Hope you are feeling better!

May I too, have my eyes opened to see my husband as the Lord does.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1026421087737007766.post-23143861195013466022011-10-20T13:34:06.709-07:002011-10-20T13:34:06.709-07:00Oh my goodenss!!!

I'm just starting my blog today- but I'm a wife to a man with Aspergers. i love him very dearly but it is a real struggle to make things "work" sometimes- I'm sure you know what I mean. Like what you wrote about and like so many other things too that i'm sure you can relate to. Im so happy I found your blog! Im going to subscribe and I hope you subscribe to me too, its nice to know we are not alone- cus if you are like me then there are times when your relationship can feel VERY lonely. ((((hugs)))) Im sorry your feelings were hurt and that you didn't feel like he cared.

And then there was the slight disappointment after when of course there is no response to my pointing out my hurt feelings because it MY problem. God and HIS unfailing love is the only thing that makes my relationship with my husband possible, except maybe the joy of our beautiful children.Princess Moraghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12487488036461371867noreply@blogger.com
