Is autism a burden in a relationship?

[Anonymous]

Is it worth it to learn about your partner or would you rather just find someone different

It really depends. My dad is slightly autistic, and despite how much my mom tries to learn about him and accept his quirks, it does burden her a lot. He's extremely hard to communicate with, often emotionally unavailable, and shuts down when she tries to help him get past some trauma.

For most it is a burden it dont mean it won't work but it makes things much harder

I guess, because it would complicate a relationship.
