how does having ADHD effect your romantic relationships when your partner does not have ADHD?

Attention-Deficit Disorder

Honestly it’s hard sometimes because I feel like I’m being “annoying” even if they say they aren’t annoyed. When we go shopping, I’ll stop and point out any little thing. Sometimes I’ll talk about an interest of mine for an hour without stopping. Sometimes I jump topic to topic, pause a movie a thousand times, or just prattle off right before bed because my brain is till ping ponging. I think in committed romantic relationships I let my guard down and my “symptoms” become more present. Luckily, most people are understanding - my current partner and I have discussed how to address issues if they arise. Like right before bed, if they’re really tired and I have a lot to say, they’ll say “hey I’m really sleepy! can you tell me all about this in the morning when I can listen with my full attention?” stuff like that.
