There is no reason why someone with autism should not marry as long as that is what he and his partner both want. Autism is a life long condition but most people learn as they get older ways of coping with their difficulties. It would be a good idea for you and your friend to learn more about autism. There are lots of websites, facebook pages and books about the subject. I have seen some books which are written as guides for partners of people with autism which might be good for you. You could ask at your local libary if they have anything which might help you. Good luck.

He may not have told the girl because he does not want to admit he is autistic or he may be frightened that she will treat him differently if she knows.

Autism is something that has a very wide range in how it affects people. Some who are very affected have very little awareness of what's going on around them and some do not speak or interact with others at all. Others are what is called 'high functioning' and they can be very clever, but not always, and seem much less affected and many people will not even realise they have autism when they meet them. It sounds like your friend is probably high functioning, sometimes this is called aspergers syndrome. You might like to read this page /actionforaspergers.org/what... which explains about the condition.

I have just had a look on ebay, if you type the words 'autism' and 'partners' into the search box quite a few books come up which have been written for the partners of people with autism. If you can't afford to buy them you could write the details down and ask at your local libary if they can get them for you to borrow.

I hope that helps.

Hi JoJo difficult question, without knowing him its hard to say, there is no reason from info you have given why he should not get married, I imagine he would have told his girlfriend what he suffers from, hopefully family will help as well, but really no reason to worry if he feels he wants to marry, hope it goes well.
