I Only Date Guys Who Accept My Autistic Sister: 27-Year-Old Caregiver

Would you date someone if his/her autistic sibling is “part of the package”? Andreana Tay, 27, has had dates call her sister Audrey a “burden” who should have been aborted or sent to a home. Audrey, 18, has Autism Spectrum Disorder, is non-verbal and has Global Developmental Delay. Andreana knows that making Audrey’s care her lifelong responsibility could mean staying single herself forever - unless Mr Right comes along who accepts them both as a package deal. She’s even quit her career in the Singapore Navy to have more time for her sister. Andreana currently shares the responsibility of her sister’s daily care with their helper. But for the long term, Audrey’s future is in Andreana’s hands. Her priority? To make sure her sister is taken care of with an income stream - whether as a Tik Tok influencer (some of their clips (@andreanaanna) have hit millions of views), Instagram influencer (@audreytayyulin) or from their fledgling Lego-sorting and building business. 00:00 Nasty comments from dates 01:00 Their viral TikToks 02:19 Caring for an autistic sister 03:22 Giving up her Navy career 05:02 Anna’s dating life 05:56 Their business ventures 07:12 Hopes for Audrey’s future Also watch: Sexuality and My Teenage Children with Autism: Life As An Adult WIth Special Needs: How A 17-Year-Old With Autism Sees The World For more, SUBSCRIBE to CNA INSIDER!
