I am 22 years old, have a job, a car, and a place of my own. I have Asperger's Syndrome, I also walk weird, and I know I don't have a normal voice (if one were to listen to me, I sound like a bumbling monkey...because of this I prefer text messages over voice calls). I was picked on for this all throughout high school, but I didn't want to go to an alternative school for disabled children, instead, I just roughed it through normal school. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger right?
I thought I found true love, someone to love me for who I am, and what exactly I am like. She didn't care about what I sounded like, she didn't care how I walk, how I talk, and what I do in certain social situations. She also would stand in the Apple line with me to purchase the (then new) iPhone 4 & iPad.
My girlfriend has decided to become very shady, and her text messages went from love filled to one word answers. Recently I spent the night at her place, and she was great. However, in the morning, she seems very out of it. I had work at 8:30AM, so I woke up, and told her I had to leave, but i'll be back for her later that day. I had tickets to an event at 4PM, which I had her hold.
I found out my vacant house had been broken into (I am not currently living there, as it is still in the process of being remodeled...nothing was taken, just a hole in the window), and I had to wait for the cops to come out. 3 hours later, an officer showed up and took down some information. Yaddy Yaddy yadda. It was only 3:30 after the whole debacle, and I managed to get the broken window boarded up. "Sweet" I thought to myself, I still had time to go with my wonderful girl, and spend time with her.
I told her about the situation with the house, and she didn't even show a lick of compassion.
She decided then to not respond to any of my messages and 5:30 rolled in. Worried as to something might have happened to her, I drove up to her apartment, and knocked. She answered, but then she was VERY shady. She claimed she was sick, but her hair was wet, and it seems like she was getting ready to go someplace. Her kisses were very off, and non-responsive (as before). She offered me the tickets back, but I declined them (would rather eat the cost then ever take something back from a girl). I just left her place and let her be.
First message I got from her in the morning was "Did you come to my apt at 9AM?" and I said No, as I didn't..on Sundays I generally sleep until 11AM, and sometimes later.
What do you guys think is happening here? I know I am different from other people, both in appearance, and personality...and to most it would be a turn off, I am sure. But to her, it was supposed to be wonderful (her words), but I just don't know. I just have a strong feeling she only wanted me for my money.
I don't fit well in public, and I KNOW IT, but you know what? It is what makes me, ME, but unfortunately, the majority of the population doesn't see things in the same light, and that causes me a lot of frustration in a lot of social situations.
Bottom line is...does my girlfriend really care about me? Or did she only want my money, and a free iPhone?
