Here’s the thing about neurodivergence and marriage
If part of you is excited about marriage and part of you is uneasy, good. That’s not a red flag. That’s awareness.
Partnership is not a checklist. And “forever” is not a personality trait.
It’s two nervous systems learning how to co-regulate without disappearing.
It’s learning how to fight without annihilating each other
when emotions run hot, tempers flare fast,
or one of you shuts down while the other escalates.
It’s deciding who does the dishes when you’re both burned out
and when unfinished tasks, time blindness, or uneven labor quietly turn one partner into the “manager” or the “parent.”
It’s navigating sex, money, ambition, grief, family, mental health, power, and change
while also navigating distraction, overwhelm, medication effects, mismatched energy, emotional reactivity, and the slow erosion of intimacy that can come from feeling criticized, unseen, or chronically disappointing.
It’s doing all of this across different seasons,
with different versions of yourselves.
While this is technically a PREmarital counseling course and completion qualifies couples for discounted marriage licenses in Texas, it absolutely can be a fitting interactive, psychoeducational resource for any couple at any stage of a significant partnership.

You’re not “too much.”
Open conversations early on won’t eliminate misunderstandings for neurodivergent couples. What they do build is something more sustainable: compassion for differences in processing and regulation, clear shared responsibility, and the relief of knowing you’re facing challenges together—not alone or blamed.
Why do we need a premarital course?
Many autistic, ADHD, and AuDHD people grow up in environments that ask them to constantly adjust—be quieter, sit still, mask more, struggle less. The impact often shows up in adulthood, but it’s workable.
Common patterns that come from those experiences:
Doubting your ability to maintain relationships
Slipping into people-pleasing or over-accommodating
Feeling unsafe being fully yourself
Missing a sense of agency in partnership
Sensory needs shaping home life and connection
Burnout risk and rejection sensitivity
Differences in communication processing
Challenges with finances, routines, and shared labor
Okay, but why THIS premarital course?
Dominant Western marriage narratives—fixed roles, indirect communication, “push through it” expectations—often fail ND couples, not because something is wrong with the relationship, but because the model simply doesn’t fit. We also don’t shy away from folks other premarital courses often ignore: queer couples, polyamorous/nonmonogamous couples, nontraditional family structures, couples with chronic Illness/disability, couples in the kink/fetish community, etc.
What actually strengthens ND partnerships:
Co-created systems instead of assumed roles
Clear, direct communication
Emotional safety and predictable repair
Shared values and collaborative decision-making
Rituals that support connection, not conformity
Common strengths ND couples bring:
Honest, straightforward conflict logic
Creative problem-solving
Emotional depth and loyalty
Steady curiosity and reflective thinking
Meaningful dialogue rooted in authenticity
