During this episode we talk about how important emotional reciprocity is to the neurotypical partner and how each partner needs to create their own happiness, instead of relying on the other to be their only source of fun and happiness.  We also talk about some of the ways in which each partner can get their needs met through respectful. loving communication.  In addition, we talk about the challenges couples may have because of unresolved trauma from undiagnosed autism and how that can have an impact on the neurodiverse relationship.

As we continue to expand our podcast content, we are sharing more information that we hope will be helpful to neurodiverse couples, or those that are looking to begin a neurodiverse relationship.  Every love relationship takes work, however we also know that going into a neurodiverse relationship when you are expecting a neurotypical relationship, can bring many challenges and unintentional pain that we hope this podcast and the other resources and information we offer will help lessen.

If you are the neurotypical partner in a neurodiverse relationship and you want to join our twice monthly peer support group, please send us an email at: [email protected], or follow us on Instagram @neurodiverse_love and send a DM to get the Zoom link for the support group.
