Dating someone with adhd

Once you commit to developing an understanding of these differences, you and your partner with ADHD are on your way to a much more fulfilling relationship.In light of some of the discord they experience, frequently the partner without ADHD wonders “why was I attracted to someone with ADHD in the first place, and why am I still in love with them despite the challenges?I was with responsible men who had "done things right".

Ironically, most of my adult life, the roles were reversed.For example, have you ever noticed that your partner hyper-focuses on things that truly grab his attention, and may tend to show up late because he got lost in time?Or that he tends to breaks promises to you, despite the fact that you have expressed your disappointment in this habit?These challenges are often rooted in differences in vantage points and communication styles.People with ADHD make sense of the world differently than others.
