Episode 63 Dating Someone with ADHD: When to Understand Them — and When to Walk Away

from Your Life, Love, and Relationship Coach, Joey Francess · host Joey Francess

In this episode, I talk about the fine line between understanding someone’s struggles and using those struggles to excuse the way you are being treated. Dating someone with ADHD can come with real challenges around time, communication, emotional regulation, follow-through, and repair. But insight is not the same thing as accountability, and compassion should never come at the cost of your own peace.This episode is about what ADHD in a relationship can actually look like, how couples can build better systems to support each other, and how to recognize when understanding has turned into self-betrayal. We also tie it back to the Blueprint Method, because at the end of the day, a diagnosis may explain the pain, but your blueprint decides whether you keep living in it.For coaching, books, and more, visit JoeyFrancess.com#dating #datingadvice #adhd #adhdrelationships #relationships #relationshipadvice #selfawareness #selfimprovement #healing #boundaries #emotionalintelligence #communication #personalgrowth #mentalhealth #attachmentstyles #selfrespect #datingwithintention #toxicrelationships #healthyrelationships #loveandrelationships
