I think this is a tough one. People I have know with the disease have a hard time in social settings. I am sure there are treatments that they can try and if he is trying something, that is a good sign. Do you feel he shared this information with you too soon? I understand what you mean about not wanting to judge, but I think it is natural and good for you to be cautious.

RockM,
I dont think he told me too soon. I would have rather known right off the bat, but he said he is always scared people with judge him. He says hes very shy, and has a hard time conversing with others. But seems fine on msn. So my heart is torn. I really like him so far, and I dont want that to change. But inside I feel uneasy at the same time. I dont know like the subject said I am very confused right now.

Keep talking to him and get to know the real him, then if/when you meet in person, you will both be more comfortable and have a friendship developed. If it evolves to a relationship, great... if not, well you've made a new friend!

I guess to me anytime you meet someone new there are going to be feelings of fear, curiousity and what if thoughts. He probably is just as scared and confused as you are. No one knows what the future will bring but I think you should do what feels most comfortable. Perhaps when you meet you will both click right off or you may just become great friends.

Just take some time to think about what you truly want to do. In all aspects just meeting him certainly isn't an obligation for you to involve yourself in a serious relationship. It is merely just an oppurtunity to get know a person better. If you can try and keep it simple and see how it goes if you decide to meet.

Anyway like I mentioned above just take your time in getting to know him more and see how you feel later on about meeting in person. If you give yourself that time the answer will come on what your next move should be. Best wishes to you:)

Thanks for the advice fellow DSers.. Which I cold give each of you a hug. I decided to keep talking to him slowly and see how things go. Hopefully something good comes in the end.

Definitely spend some time with him in person, and see how things progress.

Look for the telltale signs of the condition: Social ineptness, they're in their own little world, they have no inner monologue...and then decide whether you like him anyway. You're still in control.

Aspergers is a form of Autism. It is not as bad as Autism. I think the fact that he told you syas alot. If I was you I would look it up and do some research. I know some things that kids have with Asbergers is like organizational skills aand things like that nothing really major.
I say the ball is in your court. just look into it and then see how you feel when you finsd out more.

I agree with Ivehadenough. By the way, love the nickname Ivehadenough
