Cleanliness is next to Godliness my ass

Okay maybe the title is a bit harsh but give me sex, affection, the feelings of being wanted by my husband any day over his obsession with having a clean kitchen any day!! I found these statements about Aspergers: Most Asperger husbands are reliable and responsible people. They work hard and are good providers for their families. Some of them are boyish naïve which can be very charming. Since most children in general spend more time with their mother, boys with Aspergers may have turned to their mothers for role models and there for display more feminine behavior. In adulthood Asperger husbands do not try to meet the obligations society has from men in general. They can be quite happy to help clean and cook. Most of the time when asked they are more then willing to help out with whatever task is needed. All you have to do is ask…

Yes, my husband has been an adequate provider considering his limitations. He is a lawyer and was not able to hack the firm scene. His identical twin brother was the same. Unable to hack the big firm scene. In fact, I remember my husband's brother throwing up into his garbage can at the firm because of the anxiety caused by working there. He now works for the Church as an editor and does well because it enables him to not interact much with others and just hunker down and edit his little days away.

The comment about how men with Aspergers may display more feminine behavior is true for my husband. One night at my book club, one of my fellow book club goers told me I had a wife, not a husband. She was right. I did have a wife. He loves Jane Austen books and films, he cleans the kitchen constantly including the stove and mopping the floor. He cleans his own bathroom daily. I never picked up anything after him in 8 years. Sidenote, I knew something was wrong near the end of our marriage when he left a shirt on the bed one day!

I have never known a man that was more worried about his weight or appearance other than someone who is gay. I asked my husband numerous times during our eight year marriage if he was gay because he had no desire for sex, ever!! Not even on the honeymoon, now that shows you there is really something wrong.
