I have Asperger’s. There’s this guy I was friends with for years who rejected me for intimacy. He said I was a gold digger. I said I loved him but our values were too different, as he values private schooling and money and I don’t. I suggested we forget the whole thing happened and just be friends. He then kept appearing whenever I went out with friends. Or just went out. He drove by my suburb and showed up there and sent me heaps of Facebook pictures of him kissing women who looked like me and I love you messages. All his family were looking me up on Facebook. I was terrified and ended up having a nervous breakdown. My therapist recently said that this is normal behaviour for a man who you say that to. Even if you indicate a change of mind. Most men interested in you would do this. She said because of my Asperger’s, I’m confused and because of my history of sexual assault, I’m hyper vigilant. Is this true? My mum disagrees, but I always try to take an honest look at myself. If it is normal, should I give him a shot?
How do I tell the difference between a man who likes or loves me and a man who’s creepy or stalky?

I’m genuinely confused. First I thought he was creepy. Then my therapist said he was just persistent and he’s still chasing me and I don’t know what he wants.
