LOL so true too. I can't count the number or times I have said excuse the mess
haha
ADHDerpatibility.
I totally understand why all of you would fear having a spouse/lover who had full blown untreated (or poorly treated) ADHD with you!! I had an untreated bipolar woman and man - never again!!
But I'm talking about a woman who is on a treatment like myself - and working through the old issues and is left with the positives of ADHD like I am. Many of you have it under control or are working towards it. We are loving, caring and empathetic - why wouldn't we want the same in a lover/mate?!?
Heck - even a woman who has dumped the old, non-improved ADHDer and is looking for the energy and empathy of the ADHDer - but not the slobbish, forgetful blame-others ADHDer? Isn't that possible in this world?
I want to have a woman who is understanding but also aware of the pitfalls of ADHD. Someone who I can help when times are tough and can help me too.
That's all I really ever wanted.

Thanks sheri - but I've yet to get an invite for even a coffee from you lovely ladies! I have 2 weeks vacation - and am waiting for the invites to start coming in. I'm available!
I often think my non ADD husband keeps me from becoming one of those crazy ladies with all the cats and trails of trash throughout the house. I feel pressure to keep things up so that I do not drive him crazy.
LOL
I think a dating relationships can work for people with add, particularly if they are aware of their issues and have systems set up.
I read teh partners board and one partner indicated that her spouse had had numerous extramarital affairs - and implied this was a result of his add. In my opinion, that kind of thing isn't add, it's something else. If someone felt they had add and it caused them to make those kinds of errors in judgement, then I don't think they are suitable for anyone.
However, I think people who are aware of their add and have figured out how to work around it would make the best kinds of partners.

[/QUOTE] COFFEE is that all you want...
I've been dating someone for 5 months but i don't think it's going anywhere. We've never really decided to date only each other - but I have been dating only him for the past few months - and now I need to change that and I'm starting to date new people.
I still intend to see him - just along with other people. I really don't want to hide the fact that i'm dating other people now but i also don't want to bring it up - it just would seem like i'm trying to get at him i guess.
I'm not sure if this has anything to do with add or not - but i really don't know whether or not i should tell him. if it were me, i'd want to know but i think most people would rather not know. any ideas?
I dated this girl from Toronto who had ADHD and she is REALLY hot. She is all over the place, too, so she is very interesting to me. We split because of the distance (among other things), but we are still friends to this day. Unfortunately, I forget to call her back all the time. Blah. Honesty IS the policy.Honesty is the best policy, afterall 5 months is a long time and he may think it is a "given" that you are exclusively dating. My opinion, you should tell him regardless if it may hurt him. Better that then running into him somewhere on the arm of another guy.
Telling the truth is fair - though it probably could end it. It's that or hurt him worse. Far worse. I had that done to me and it ripped me up pretty badly. Honesty is always best.
And boy - all these hot ADHD chicks coming out of the woodwork. And like the saying goes "not a drop to drink". Sigh.
depends on the rides lol
I f your lookn' for hot ADD chicks, check out the Fire
I think Glen may be on to something........
I am married and not looking for a mate, but I would really like to meet some other people "like me" for platonic friendships.
[QUOTE=GlenW]
I just think that if you set up dates with ADHD couples that it would go much smoother - the assumptions of being ignored or mistreated might not be there.
So what do you all think?
[/QUOTE]
SO you think that if your date has add /adhd also there won't be a problem if he/she is late, shows up on the wrong day, goes to the other Pizzeria, gets lost, or forgets to show up?
It frustrates the hell out of me that my non dx'd spouse's add behaviors mean that no matter how good I am at overcoming my add behaviors
the house is still a mess with piles of &^*^ in every corner,
the bank book cannot be balanced ( i just opened a separate account so I could be sure there was enuf $ for the monthly bills),
my schedule is constantly messed up because she forgot to tell me about an appointment she made ( and forgot about until the remainder call the nite before) or that she was working on a day that she ussually cares for the kids.
NOPE, not me. next time I'm looking for someone who is capable and willing to do the stuff I struggle with so that my struggles are not in vain. My life is like shovelling sand in the wind. I know that boardwalk is down there cause I built it and i want to see it someday but all the shovelling in the world won't accomplish that until the wind stops blowing. Maybe this could be someone "like me" but she'll have to prove she wants to see the boardwalk too.
Just 2c from a frustrated spouse.
yeah & she wont drive you freakin nuts either[QUOTE=rayray812]ANY HOT CHICKS W. ADD?

I don't know - the more I think about it the more sense it makes. I should be looking for an ADHD mate! Women that I have been meeting since improving my behaviors and mindset try to understand what I go through - but they really don't. That's not their fault - it's like trying to make someone who has never been depressed understand what that is like. It becomes sympathy and not empathy.
Maybe we should ask the administration to have a section set up for ADHD singles? What does everyone here without a spouse think?? Hell - the married ones can make their opinion known as well.
I just think that if you set up dates with ADHD couples that it would go much smoother - the assumptions of being ignored or mistreated might not be there.
So what do you all think?
Oh, I thought he was taking her to the amusement park. that's what I was thinkin....I divorced a guy who definitely does NOT have ADHD .
I married a guy who probably has ADD like me. This marriage is definitely better for me.
But I have an aunt who was also dx ADD like me. Her husband is her helper and he is soooo patient. He is the one who remembers things. He organizes things for her and loves to do it. He is a very compassionate guy.
So, I think, it really depends on your unselfishness if your marriage is going to be successful or not. If you have two unselfish people, willing to love and help each other out, you are going to have success.
You can also have a pretty scary house when both of you are ADD

I'm a ADD "wanna-be" according to Anni but I think I'm a ADD "wondering-if-I-could-be". Does that count??? And I'm very warm! For sure I have MSS (Martha Stewart Syndrom) as was pointed out to me.
And I'm single but then again I think I want to stay single so never-mind.

Don't do it!
I spent eleven years with a hot, steaming wife who happened to have mild, Tourettes syndrome. (which is ADHD x 10 with nervous tics) She was untreated and I was undiagnosed. We almost didn't make it out alive. Guys would hit on her right in front of me. We are friends now, we both admit that the sex kept us together for too long. Her, our son, and myself are all being treated now.
Be careful with your libido, it will be a valuable gift for the right person someday. But in the meantime, our intense fantasy world can get us into situations without seeing the risks.
I haven't met one yet - but would like too as well lol. I think it would be easier for two dx'ed ADHDers to get along as we'd know each other so well. But I can hope - though I think the chance meeting would be rare.
Also "hot" is relative. I find the mind highly exciting and can make up for a lot of different types of women. I'd rather have an average woman with a super-sexy mind than a super hot vacuuous woman. Truly.
My wifes a hot chick and she has AD/HD...but she's mine....
;)
Wow! What a pic, if I wasen't married I'd... never mind....
