Expected More insights about Love and Autism

I did not realize the book would be only stories of neurodivergent couples. I expected more analysis and insight and also additional information to support couples. The stories were interesting and I could partially relate to one. Its hard to find the right selection of couples for the stories, which in the end will never satisfy all. Being in a relationship for 23 years, I was hoping to see more longer term relatationships.
