I just told a girl that I am seeing (4 dates so far) that I have autism over text

I'm scared shitless right now about how she'll respond, hold me /adv/
>>
Why did you tell her that?

You are not a nonverbal autist so who gives a fuck.

Your just going to end up annoying her with this snowflake nonsense.

>>17970537
If you've been on 4 dates, she either knows, or isn't bothered by it.
You may need to explain more to her though than just "I have autism"
Autism is negatively seen and poorly understood by the general public, and since the spectrum is sooooooo diverse, just saying you're autistic really doesn't tell her much other than you're different.

You should try and give her some examples, not all of them, just a few. And as the time goes on, let her know a few more.

If she hasn't noticed, then she'll be a bit confused, probably.

Just let her know most of them as they either occur or you think she should know.

4 dates isn't a 'unveil everything' status, just a 'give a few examples'.

I don't like people moving my things.
I have a set time for everything and it really upsets me if it isn't on time.

Give her the mild ones, then build up over time or when you think it might affect what you'll be doing.

oh God what have I done
>>17970578
so far I told her I'm high functioning, that it is a mild case, and that it means I have difficulty in certain social situations.....maybe I'll give some examples when she responds

also I did it because the last date I felt that I may have been a bit weird (long story) and on top of that she has been talking to me less frequently since
>>

I don't know how your story will end, anon, but just because of the stigma around autism, just say you are socially awkward.

You can just tell her

"I'm telling you this because I felt like I acted a bit weird on our last date and just wanted you to understand why a bit better."
>>
>>17970629
I meant next time (if things don't work out this time) just tell them you are socially awkward sometimes and lead into telling them (face to face so you can explain and answer any questions).
Do it as privately as you can, like when you're hanging out at your or her house.

I hope you never need the above advice and that she contacts you soon :3

>>17970537
You have absolutely no idea what autism is, do you?
