Description

During this episode we talk about how challenging it can be when socializing, friendships and travel have different value to us and impact us differently in our neurodiverse relationships.  As neurotypicals, socializing is very important in our love relationships, however our neurodivergent partners didn't place the same importance on socializing and social events as we did.  Understanding how both partners can see things through a neurodiverse lens can help reduce anxiety, frustration, anger and disappointment.  We also talk about some of the lessons we have learned about these topics as we move forward on our Neurodiverse Love journey.
