    Im gonna skip to the end of this story for you. The diagnosis won’t help here. You are gonna have to communicate out of this and a “Aha see I have an ADHD diagnosis so now your feelings are invalid!” Wont get you as far as you think it will.

    I don’t know your situation but ultimately my problem was solved by getting another partner who understands me better. I hope you can get her to understand you better

      Yeah we are an old couple now (4 kids 13-19) and it’s not perfect but we grew a lot over time. (I used to forget dates on prior relationships) I’m not here for advice or a diagnosis, I’ve always been of the mindset that we can create better habits and improve our lackings. Just sharing and I guess venting a little because it’s harder for me than it is for her. (And probably a lot harder for some of y’all)
