He sits out side and chain smokes while watching videos about World of Warcraft.  He is loosing his marriage, his dogs, his home, his vehicle, and instead of ever lifting a finger to make a change to stop it... He pulls up video after video about a game he said he would never play again.

fuck him.

I really think I snapped again last night.  The fact that he didnt mention what the day was (late husbands birthday) AT ALL to me, says so much.  The fact that he values me so little that he cant even be bothered to read a book, or a chapter of the book - or anything at ALL to improve our relationship, and to manage his own issues.... says everything.

(sorry for the you/her issue. this stuff was all originally journal entries, some directed at her, others meant for my psych/therapist)

My partner has just been diagnosed with ADHD - well...sort of, not really.

Today is my late husbands birthday (first husband).  It's always a hard day for me, so today I have been posting old pictures, and videos from him.  I was close with him even when we separated, and my H knew this from the beginning of our relationship.  You would think after all these years he would remember.  But nothing.  Not a word.  But he did change his social media pictures to ones with out me in them... Which was the only place he even had a picture of me in the first place.  Stupid that it hurts like this.

Empathy is often defined as being able to put oneself in another person's shoes (figuratively, of course).  I'm frustrated by people who think that empathy consists of assuming their own shoes will fit everyone else.

My boyfriend or should I say "ex-boyfriend" were dating for 4 months, long-distance. We met on a dating site, we had a conection we haven't had before with anyone else, we were so different but yet so similar.
His life his a mess, he had a little girl with his ex and she have never allowed him to see her, the same ex filled a restraint order for his mom because she doesn't want to have contact with his family, he has a huge school debt, no job because he dropped school before he discovered or was diagnosed with ADHD.

Long-distance relationship sucks, I know. But what the hell??

As the significant other of a man with ADD and Depression, I am always trying to figure out what might be done to modify the explosiveness of the relationship.

I have the same problems many have...which include all the requisite accusations: "I wouldn't be angry if you didn't____________"; "The reason I can't get anything done is because you __________"; "If you would just give me a chance I could accomplish _____________";..... on and on and on... In reading this forum we all seem to share the same life.

I've been at odds with my husband pretty much since we got married 6 years ago. I would ask him to help me out and take care of something and later he would say he forgot or ran out of time when he had 4 hours to complete the task and didn't even start it. I've caught him multiple times having inappropriate conversations with random women online. No matter how I told him it hurt me, I would still catch him. He now says the sites have been deleted, we'll see. A little over 3 years ago my daughter was born and everything escalated.
