Definitely able to hyperfocus on relationships.
Luckily for me, it worked to my advantage with my current, and forever, partner. I did stuff because it was what he was doing. I started being more health conscious because he was and just so many things. The difference between this one and every other one is that my man really does want what's best for me- really. And I feel the same. We are very considerate of each other and always have been.
We've been together 8 years and I don't know that we'll ever get married. Why ruin such a good thing? Part of me does want to get married- but that's for another thread

Thank you so much for replying and sharing that, so if you hyperfocus on a relationship do you find that the world around you disappears in a way (sorry i am pretty bad with wording things correctly) does it feel like you lose touch with everything around you?
You're so lucky i wish i had ADHD cause i get bored of anyone if i spend to long with them even if they're someone i cherish dearly. You literally go to the ends of the earth which is amazing it shows how passionate you are about your relationships. As you say though you put your heart on your sleeve a bit, just like my cousin who has ADHD.
Do you ever get bored of a person? Do you have a day which is like hitting a brick wall and becoming bored or having your hyperfocus switch off? If so what is that like and can that apply to all social situations not just relationships but friendships, work partners/colleages etc.
Never say never you never know you might be surprised one day, your partner might be saying no to marriage so you're oblivious to him planning to marry you.
Thank you again
