So Your Wife Thinks You're Autistic - Now What?


Listen Later

When the woman you love looks at you and says, “I think you might be autistic,” it can hit like a surprise plot twist you didn’t see coming. For some men, it feels like clarity. For others, it feels like criticism. And for most? It’s confusing, disorienting, and more emotional than they expected. In this episode, Jeremy breaks down what actually happens inside a marriage when one partner starts connecting the dots and the other isn’t sure they want to. With honesty, humor, and the kind of practical wisdom only lived experience can teach, he walks husbands through the very normal reactions—denial, defensiveness, curiosity, relief—and explains why this moment doesn’t have to be a crisis… it can be the beginning of understanding yourself in a brand-new way.

But more importantly, Jeremy shows how this conversation can become a turning point for the relationship, not just the individual. He unpacks why your wife brought it up, what she’s actually hoping for, and how to respond in ways that build connection instead of conflict. This isn’t about labeling yourself or proving anything. It’s about learning to see what your partner sees, honoring your own pace, and deciding what to do with the information sitting on the table. Whether you’re skeptical, seeking answers, or somewhere in between, this episode offers a compassionate roadmap for husbands who want to understand themselves—and love their wives—better than ever.
