Yet another thread that leads me to believe that IDDY is totally making all this up. To date, we have a mama's boy who has never lived independently, is an alcoholic virgin with a purity contract, and exhibits anti-social behavior. But they're going to get married and live happily ever after because he's never been married. Riiiiiiiight.

At least we get some entertainment value from it.

As others have said, it's up to him to seek out some kind of diagnosis, not something that you're going to get accurate info from a bunch of people here who don't know either one of you guys.
She has said in the past that he reads what she posts here.

Hard to tell fact from fiction, though, in these Taco Man threads.

Well, at least he isnt a single dad. THAT would be cause for concern.

He can read, he just has a bit of a problem with reading.

Maybe he has ADD. Either way, who cares about labels.

Get to know him better.

All labels do is place people in boxes.

Have fun with him and see how he works with you. Good Luck!

Yes he served in the army and was in Desert Storm. He's not stupid, just a bit of a learning disability.

He will make plans then forget sometimes or take it the wrong way.
That's because he's a drunk.

Long term, excessive alcohol abuse causes brain damage. The symptoms sound like Taco Man.
