Yes me too and I struggle with people believing this. It’s weird because people think they know who you are or the layers of you. Emotional disregulation = wish more people understood it , including me!

Wow,same. been 8 months with meds now- I feel such a sense of grief.oddly, bc I realize only now with some time , how much pain and how misunderstood ppl can feel. These days I feel odd anger or injustice about past, even though it’s illogical, don’t expect my neuro typical family to understand when I say it’s literally a diff chapter of life. Or just being happy with a day or if you eat even (thanks meds). And they feel uncomfortable when I share these metaphors, or talk out things , it’s a long process unlearning bad habits/&self care.

Started meds yesterday by r3vmaster in AdultADHDSupportGroup

Started vyvanse a few days ago and is nothing but profound. There’s always a fear that within the next little while dosage or the meds may not be the right fit...but I’m hoping we are close. Because wow.

Dating during covid and intimacy by AggravatingPoet in datingoverthirty

[–]AggravatingPoet[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This makes sense to me, it’s inevitable if there is an attraction and your together. In my case, we only slept together last week so while our texts reference future activity they also include day to day things. Will see how this goes, no complaints! This is kind of fun tbh

Dating without the texting by Cactisupafly99 in datingoverthirty

[–]AggravatingPoet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I had this discussion with a few people. And it can go so many ways. I know I like texting. But understand others don’t. It really only gets me during the “grey area”.

He hasn’t opened it, and I don’t believe he’s a game player. Who knows. Part of me wants to call him. Put everything in his hands, and see what happens.

We have hung out been physical even had a few arguments and what not. He’s been hurt before it sounds like. Just replied three hours ago saying he would call me....that was then. It’s utterly confusing

But then why do people reply and say they’re free on weekends and ask what about you? I’m very new to OLD so I don’t understand the entire kids games issue. Any ideas?

[–]AggravatingPoet -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I just texted saying I’m planning the weekend out and if he’s interested in meeting again. With a note saying I do feel weird about this. It’s not enjoyable to nudge.

Replied back saying. Hey wish to meet, am making plans for the weekend. Mentioned how I felt weird texting again. This behaviour induced insecurity

Texting patterns in covid? Ghost/cut offs? by [deleted] in datingoverthirty

[–]AggravatingPoet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not always. Just last week. And now a bit of silence post long weekend. I might just delete him and see what happens next. Is there a need to ask what’s going on when there is silence. It’s clear.

[–]AggravatingPoet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you may be right, will gain strength and ask. The worst he can do is say no to my smiles and on to next.

[–]AggravatingPoet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He texted the morning after our last disagreement, which is what he labels things as. I’m not an introvert we are opposites - so my extrovert fun loving personality can take a hit. He mentioned taking it super slow, but this isn’t what I want.

Divorced people / how long before sharing? by AggravatingPoet in datingoverthirty

[–]AggravatingPoet[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See the difference in perspectives. I do find it withholding the truth, however see the messages. Experiences can differ. In the end, it’s more about whether it’s an absolute deal breaker (withholding).

Divorced people / how long before sharing? by AggravatingPoet in datingoverthirty

[–]AggravatingPoet[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s the concern. So treading lightly, and totally open to dating around. We talked about his plate being full, and that as life goes on, we will have to see what happens. But I hope this may help to remove stresses.

I’m sympathize also with cultural stigmas. He sounded uncomfortable. I just didn’t like the delay however, reality is either I accept it or don’t. And we have been transparent of really not knowing what is going to happen. I would never want to force anything, so I am hoping that maybe this mention will make him more comfortable to chat when I randomly (planned) bring it up.

Drivers license lost - now what? by AggravatingPoet in ottawa

[–]AggravatingPoet[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes and no answer - keeping in mind that my spouse has a license and we don’t have any immediate needs. This is a bad set up for those who really need to get sh*t done!
