This also applies to romantic relationships. An autist, especially those brooding the Asperger's syndrome, might pretty much find it difficult to have sex due to strong aversions to body contacts, but they love their partners nonetheless.
I never knew about this. And as you said Autists are special in their own way. Some research works also have it that a great many geniuses have suffered from this disorder. Nice one. Thanks a lot for sharing!
Yes, a lot of geniuses in fact. Because of the high inner concentration, their intellectual output can be astounding. But then, the autistic tendencies can also affect them intellectually. Thanks for your comment @starrichie.
