Not at all.People with Aspergers fall in love and care about people, just like people without Aspergers.
The thing is, people with Aspergers have their own style of communication, and people without Aspergers have a different style of communication. Emotions manifest in certain ways in persons with Aspergers, and in slightly different ways with non-Aspergers. So sometimes two people both with Aspergers get along well, because they understand eachother, and can read each other's emotions better. Sometimes neurotypicals (that is, people without Aspergers) don't propperly read the emotions of someone with Aspergers, and vice versa. So there can be challenges in a neurotypical/Aspie relationship, but that relationship is not doomed. You just have to both learn to understand each other, which is perfectly possible if you both want to.
The important thing to remember, is that each person with Aspergers is a unique individual with an individual personality, just like each person without Aspergers.
I have Aspergers. My closest friend does also. We have a lot of affection for each other. Sadly, not everyone else understands me. But he does. Our friendship proves that we are capable of deep emotionally felt love.
And it really is possible for a deep relationship to exist when one person is neurotypical (not aspergers) and the other has aspergers. But it does really help when you understand Aspergers.
Aspergers: Capable of deep love, like anyone else.
May have more subtle or different ways of showing emotion.
Tended to be socially awkward when young. May have learned social skills in adulthood, or may still come across as a little weird.
Will always have an Obsession. What this is about, depends on the individual. If he/she is in love with you, you may be their Obsession.

A person with Aspergers can become popular by just being themselves. If they're nice, people will come to them for who they are, not what they have.
How long does the marriage of a person with aspergers last?
Aspergers syndrome is a disorder having to do with a person's ability to interact socially. Because it is a social disorder, the general health of a person with this syndrome would not be affected. The life expectancy is the same as that of any other person. The movie "Rain Man" is about a man with Aspergers (or somewhere on the Autism Spectrum). It may give you a better idea of what it is.
How do you cure Asperger's Syndrome?
You cannot cure Asperger's Syndrome. It is a neurological condition that affects how the brain works, so rather than curing it, people with Asperger's Syndrome can learn or be taught some methods to deal with some of its effects. They can also be given medications that can treat some of the symptoms, but not the cause. There is no cure for Aspergers Syndrome. There are a number of ways that a person with Aspergers can be helped to live a good quality, independent life which is sometimes made difficult by the condition.

It all just really depends what they are like. Some can write big and sloppy and some can write neat and tidy. An Aspergers person can write neater or sloppier than anyone else. It doesn't change them, just how they behave and socialize. Edit: Poor handwriting is in fact more common in Aspergers. But not always.
If your in an abusive relationship and you think you love the person do you actually or are you just addicted to the relationship?
Look up Traumatic Bonding and Stockholm Syndrome. And get out of that relationship.
Does someone with asperge syndrome ask ramdom questions?
They can. It has been heard of that an Aspergers person may be in thought for a long period time and can ask a question that may be odd, out of the blue, or just random to the one being asked. Or it may be on an odd subject; usually something the Aspergers individually likes or is interested in.
How would an Aspie gain the trust of a Neurotypical?
Within the category of neurotypical people there is a wide range. Some are not flexible enough to ever trust a person with Aspergers Syndrome. Some are. Friendship is basically the same whether you have Aspergers Syndrome or not. You and your friend have mutual interests, you are helpful to each other, you forgive each others faults, you do the best you can within your limitations. Everyone makes compromises, regardless of their typical or atypical mental condition.
Should you stay in a relationship if you have occasional thoughts that it is doomed to fail?
I can't make up my mind if you have a defeatist attitude or you know this person has too many bad faults to proceed with the relationship. If you have had bad experiences with the opposite sex then you have to get over comparing them with the person(s) that hurt you or your relationship certainly will be doomed and you may end up missing out on a great person that SHOULD be in your life. If the person you are in the relationship with has no respect for you, doesn't get along with family or friends, is abusive verbally or physically then you need to get out of it now! If they are 'needy' have no confidence this is another reason to leave a relationship or you'll be carrying the whole load if you choose to have a future together.
I don't have all of the symptoms of Aspergers. I have a nephew with Autism. Is it possible not to have all the symptoms of Aspergers and still have the condition?
Each person who has aspergers has a different personality, and aspergers manifests itself differently in different persons. So, probably, no one who has aspergers has all the symptoms, because the combination is different in each individual.
