It takes two for any relationship to work. Both need to be understanding and accepting for things to work regardless of any other complications. When relationships don’t work it is because one or both feel they have lost the respect or trust of the other. Maybe they did, maybe they didn’t, the cause of this disconnect is the important piece of information in my world.

When one person stops trying or caring it’s an emergency for the relationship. The person Yelling for help isn’t being heard and likely hasn’t been heard for a while. Yes there are MANY posts like this on any forum that discusses marriage, not just this one, that leads me to think it is about the choices people make from second to second and how open they are and not about any emotional or psychical short coming they or their partner has.

The help messages BTW are generated by both sides of the ADD relationship almost equal at that. The ADD’er isn’t heard, the non-ADD’er can’t cope, or vise-versa. Bottom line is that the communication is broken and someone needs to step up.
