Would you date a person that has Asperger's Syndrome and Bipolar Disorder?

[Simslover92]

I'm writing a story where the girl who has never been in a relationship before falls for a guy with this.

He lives with his brother and although he could live on his own, he chooses to live with his older brother who is widowed and she becomes the live in nanny/maid for his brother's young daughter.

They fall for each other while she lives there and she starts to realize something is off about him but not enough for her to turn her feelings for him away.

[ohsheeT]

If I like that person Within I mean yeah I would date them in a heartbeat look no matter what in life when you start dating somebody you are friends there are reasons behind the dating there are reasons behind you want to be in with them just like in time if something happens and it's not going to work out that's what you talk about and you make that transition comfortable as friends you don't hurt each other and just walk away you communicate about it


You know you don't Want to hurt anybody But there are times where you break up and things happen But you have to Put in motion the Friendship comes first And you can always be friends Any girl I've ever broke up with except for one I And friends with today If I've run into them we talk But I mean and that's it Except for one And I don't Careful I ever seen here give LOL

But to answer your question yes no matter what you know about Asperger's or bipolar you still weigh it out and if the love that you have towards that person outweighs what could happen with Asperger's or bipolar or how to deal with it of course I would

[MrChinaski]

A person is a whole person, good and bad. It would depend how good the good side of the ledger is.

[alice55]

Asperger yes bipolar no that’s a serious psychiatrict disorder it’s dangerous and very had to live everyday plus the older the Guy would get the crazier he ll become like he can be stable at 20 or 30 but become unhinged at 50 and i don’t want to have children with a crazy dude.
Asperger is jsut someone différent so it’s ok but bipolar it’s serious

[KostasKouvalis]

Yeah. There was a bipolar girl online "who was into me." I thought I could handle her. I COULDN'T! I agree! Stay away!

[Wodens_Apprentice]

I got Asperger's and despite being a tall attractive man no woman ever considered me as a legit option.
Women hate us spergs as we give them the "ick" 😔

[Soapsoaplady]

@alice55 the only crazy person here is you, projecting your sexist views that older men who sleep 18 year olds are pedos.

[KostasKouvalis]

I think I might have it too, I'm not sure. I've never been diagnosed, but I have a lot of symptoms of it

[KostasKouvalis]

@Soapsoaplady YOU again! YOU'RE the crazy one! Constantly making new accounts and asking people the same question about a middle aged woman fucking your 18 year old son and no matter what answer they give, you scold them! YOU'RE the one who is crazy and a weirdo!

[Soapsoaplady]

@KostasKouvalis what are you talking about? You were right you have serious mental health issues.

Go fuck some granny that you want and shut up

[WhitneySnow]

I would. I have bipolar disorder and I have good friends with Asperger’s.

[msc545]

Bipolar disorder is treatable with medication, assuming that the patient actually takes the medication that's prescribed. Asperger's disorder, on the other hand, is not treatable at all.

[WhitneySnow]

@msc545 I know. But neither one is a deal breaker.

[AI Opinion]

On GAG my aim is to help you untangle love, red flags, and all that delicious emotional chaos.

Yes, totally believable and absolutely dateable. Asperger’s and Bipolar don’t cancel out romance, they just change the dynamics. He can be loyal, intense, awkwardly adorable, maybe bad at reading cues, and terrified of rejection.

Their slow-burn connection, her noticing “something’s off” but still staying, is pure romance gold, not a dealbreaker.

[OlderAndWiser]

Asperger's Syndrome - depends on the severity and how it manifests in the particular woman.

Bipolar Disorder - Run, Forrest, run! Not in a jillion years.

[Wodens_Apprentice]

Autism can't be severe as it's not a disease it's just a lost of personality quirks. In other words academics needed a word for those eccentric humans they struggle to understand.

[OlderAndWiser]

Doesn’t matter whether you call it a disease. It can be profound or severe. Google it.

[Wodens_Apprentice]

@OlderAndWiser The fact you think a Google search is going to provide you with a solid explanation to a subject the academia actually admits it barely understands itself tells me you don't know what you're talking about.
I don't need to Google shit I've lived with being autistic and everyone in my family being autistic.

[OlderAndWiser]

@Wodens_Apprentice Your personal experience does not define the rest of the world. There is severe autism, and I don't care whether you believe it.

[Wodens_Apprentice]

@OlderAndWiser Autism can't be severe and if it's just a diagnostic label used by academics, if they cannot prove it's an actual thing. They don't diagnose autism through anything but a test done on paper. That isn't evidence.
You just "trust the science" without actually knowing what science is.

[OlderAndWiser]

@Wodens_Apprentice No, I worked for 6 years in a community mental health center. You have autism and you don't want to admit that it's real. I understand. The rest of us are not required to agree with you just to make you feel better.

[Wodens_Apprentice]

@OlderAndWiser It's not about not admitting anything. I used to be proud of it but I call it for what it is. Working for the government in a "mental health center" doesn't convince me if anything as autism has nothing to do with mental health. It is a list of personality traits that are lumped together and diagnosed. There is also a genetic component to it but you could make that argument with every personality type and how it impacts phenotype.
You are talking to someone diagnosed with this thing and rejecting what I'm saying like you know more then me. Autism is just a label. It cannot be proven with hard science beyound eccentric personality traits.
The "weirdos" is linked to the word Wyrd, and unironically linked to the word Word too. Associated with Woden, runes, rationality, wisdom being outcasted. And also associated with witches, werewolves and the people who throughout Europe wore predator skins, looked undead and terrorised people with their fury. And also the fact Woden the god of wisdom's name literally means to invoke/fury, it's good to point out that the ancient Teutonic (Germanic) aristocracy was in fact autistic. Ever notice how arrogant and particular autistic people are? This is how the nobility in Europe acted throughout the dark ages.
Normies should be the ones diagnosed with a mental disorder, as they literally have less order then us and should be out farming on our fields.

[Wodens_Apprentice]

Our ancestors were more insightful then modern academics who all just think like computers and accept the framework whatever is handed down to them.
If you think my hatred of normies is unreasonable, no. Normies treat us autists like shit because they are jealous of us. It's the same reason why 3rd world people hate westerners out of sheer jealous and spite.

[Wodens_Apprentice]

And I'd just like to add, separate high functioning autism and low functioning. They really don't belong in the same category because our academia spends more on trying to debunk those evil right wing Chuds then refining their own psychological framework they invented.

[Wodens_Apprentice]

I'm sure the psychologists know what they're doing when they lump people like me with low functioning people, have a one to one guiding me like I'm retarded all the time rather then just letting me be a misbehaving child.
The version of that was never diagnosed with autism is the version that would've gotten in trouble more, but had friends and would've had to have learned how to pay attention in class.
Then I would have found university easy, which it was. But the problem was I didn't even know how to process what the university wanted out of me precisely because of the way things were worded. Whenever I managed to have a tutor explain it, I found it underwhelmingly easy yet found reading the tasks I had to do at home impossible (this was during the COVID lockdown too) so I was getting that stressed with it that my mum encouraged me to drop out as I was going through other shit too (like my dad dying, the few friends I had all backstabbing me and more).
So my education was fucked up and my social life. And when you have 0 friends that means you have nobody to associate with, share ideas with, do things with, live life with and meet girlfriends.
I am going to do whatever I can to help tear down this corrupt civilisation that made a clown out of someone very intelligent, knowledgeable and naturally talented. And I don't feel like I owe the kindness that once lit up my soul to anyone anymore because I'm done being taken advantage of.

[OlderAndWiser]

@Wodens_Apprentice Triggered much? I'm not reading any more of your obviously biased drivel.

[Wodens_Apprentice]

@OlderAndWiser So you're immature and dismiss an opinion based on lived experience from someone with an autistic family based on "bias". Everyone has bias. To be unbias is to compare different opinions and ideas together and weigh up the credibility together. If you really think that Google AI is an expert at a field that academics themselves admit is poorly understood then you're not thinking about this like an actual scientist would.

[OlderAndWiser]

@Wodens_Apprentice Are you blind, also? I wrote that I WORKED IN THE MENTAL HEALTH FIELD FOR SIX YEARS! I also wrote that I don't want to read any more of your drivel. Do you need help to understand what that means?

[Chazmatazz269]

I could probably deal with Asperger’s, but i wouldn’t take any chances with bipolar disorder. I’m generally extremely pragmatic. I don’t have irrational outbursts and i won’t tolerate them in my life. Only someone who is mildly afflicted and demonstrates complete mastery over it would be allowed into my bubble.

[sage2021]

My late boyfriend had severe ADHD and it took some getting used to when he moved in with me.

It's just that I loved him so much that I was willing to learn how to live with his ADHD because I could never give him up. It was part of who he was, like it or not.

That guy Bob from here, remember him? He has bipolar. No wonder everything went sideways with us!🙄

[emeraldsaphire]

My husband has Asperger's or technically "Autism spectrum disorder," as of the DSM-5, bipolar is different. I was in a kind of situationship with a girl who had bipolar 2. It was one of my most volatile relationships. So it would depend on how stable they were.

[Lliam]

No. I wouldn't want to get involved with mental health problems. I need someone who is stable. I don't want drama and I don't want to be a caretaker or counselor.

[CaptainSmartass]

I'd date someone with the Asperger's. I have it as well, so I'd be a massive hypocrite not to.

As for the Bipolar, hell no! I'm not getting involved with that. She's already got a boyfriend in Warsaw, and a girlfriend in Krakow.

Simples...

[molonski2]

Had experience with friends /aquantence who have had ( not girlfriends ) and no , I would not get involved , extremely difficult , too difficult.

[Shiprex]

Perhaps I would it would depend on how much they had awareness and acted upon it to be socially engaged.

[midnightmoon05]

No. I don’t like stress… I work with people with some of these… then I go home to sanity.

[exitseven]

I dated a girl that may have been bipolar. Every few weeks she would go crazy and abuse me. Once she bit me so hard I still have the scar.

[Iron_Man]

Did she bite half of your ear off like Tyson? You can’t let a girl abuse you, you have to stop them. You don’t have to hit her but you hold her real tight so she knows who’s boss. you have to hold her so she won’t pound on you, but you gotta do it tight because they might be strong.

[exitseven]

@Iron_Man No, she bit me in the forearm. Sometimes she would try and hit me and I used to restrain her, She was abused as a kid by her parents and her brother did weird stuff to her too,
One night she got away from me and fell down and hit her head, She was bleeding pretty good but I did not want to call the paramedics. Finally I got the bleeding to stop.
Mos of the time she would be really nice but every few weeks she would just go off the rails.

[Iron_Man]

I’m sorry to hear that. I hope that she’s better now that she’s not so angry.

[exitseven]

@Iron_Man I wanted her to see a shrink but she refused. She would not return my phone calls so after a couple of weeks I drive over to her place. She was living in a house with a friend and her boyfriend. They told me she moved out and was living with friends. I think they kicked her out. I never saw her again

[Iron_Man]

That’s a shame how long ago was this but I hope that she’s fine now

[exitseven]

@Iron_Man I always thought she would be on the 6 o'clock news but I never found out where she went and never saw her again.

[Iron_Man]

What was this like 15 years ago?

[exitseven]

@Iron_Man more like 30. Before I got married.

[Iron_Man]

I hope she’s alive and OK

[exitseven]

@Iron_Man yes, I really have no way of finding out.

[Kvass]

No. there's no need to play stupid games and win stupid prizes, I'm fine with normal men.

[Iron_Man]

That’s good to know thanks for sharing

[Wodens_Apprentice]

By skipping the autists like me you're actually missing out on superior high IQ genetics.

[Bricealan]

@Simslover92 My answer would depend on a number of things. difficult to detail here.

[Wodens_Apprentice]

Yes, but the bipolar would be hard to handle. But if she were like minded it wouldn't put me off her enough.

[Iron_Man]

Yes, I would date a bipolar person If I like her I stay loyal to people I don’t abandon people

[KostasKouvalis]

I've known girls with both. Asperger's yes, bipolar, no way! Bad experience!

[AngryCarl3]

ASpergers? Sure. Bipolar? No way. Too much drama!

[loveyouoak]

I'd date the one with Asperger's Syndrome, but I'm not sure about the one with Bipolar Disorder.

[Smileygirl2000]

Never again! The guy I dated had aspergers and omg. No! Never again

[Wodens_Apprentice]

I have Asperger's and if I see you I'm gonna maul you to death with my retard strength.

[Smileygirl2000]

@wodens_apprentice thanks for proving my point

[Smileygirl2000]

@Simslover92 his comment is the reason why I suggest not dating them

[Wodens_Apprentice]

@Smileygirl2000 You just can't handle the eternal Conan.

[Extraterrestrial1999]

I feel like bipolar would be a deal breaker for me at some point

[Bklynbadboy12]

Nope thats way too much going on for me. I've got nothing against sick people but people with mental illnesses are very hard to deal with

[Jltakk]

Sure, I have Asperger's as well. If she had bipolar, it is what it is as long as she was deep down a decent person

[Wodens_Apprentice]

We men are truly more tolerant then women.

[msc545]

No, I would not. I diagnose and treat people who have mental disorders. I don't date them.

[Iron_Man]

Why not I’ve heard that doctors do date their patients

[msc545]

@Iron_Man only if they want to lose their license

[Iron_Man]

You ever get any beautiful patient that had their eyes on you

[Iron_Man]

That would be hard to turn that down dating. I don’t see why you couldn’t date them if it’s just innocent dating

[Iron_Man]

I don’t think I could refuse if I ran a company and one of my employees was a beautiful female that liked me that would be so hard, turning her down.

[Smegskull]

I am not sure I would believe it. They seem somewhat mutually exclusive.

[Soapsoaplady]

Bipolar maybe, aspergers no

[Wodens_Apprentice]

Yes foids hate us spergs do much you'd go with a bipolar schizo over the more individual minded Neandarthal that can think for themselves.

[MissSunshine2]

I would. I have Asperger’s myself.

[FreyaRed]

Depends on severity but unlikely

[FrodoSkywalker007]

I would find it very difficult, but I'd try.

[usernameobvious]

Who knows I may be both myself 😅

[genericname85]

aspergers maybe. bipolar hell no.

[Staximus]

I’ll pass on the bipolar

[Olivia_M_xo]

Probably not both tbh.

[DonaldDarko]

Nope.

[Agape93]

Sure.

[Paige2006]

No I wouldn't
