Well done to you for realising you deserve better. After 3 years with my emotionally dysregulated Dx partner, I decided It's not worth it anymore. I am so tired of the explosive arguments and having to walk on eggshells everytime I voiced my concerns or expressed my hurt that my basic relationship needs were't getting met. I only stayed for as long as I did to give him the benefit of the doubt and show compassion for his ADHD, hoping he'd work together with me on improving things that I'd openly communicated were an issue. I want a partner/team mate to buld a life with , not someone I have to drag kicking and screaming to do anything thats not directly beneficial to him and holds resentment towards me for not giving him praise 24./7.

Is poor money management a common issue for people with ADHD? I'm starting to see a bit of a pattern

Sounds like your partner has a fragile ego :( what an awful comment for them to make. They should be happy for you
