Have been trying online dating for a few days. Out of hundreds of men’s profiles I’ve found only one person attractive. He contacted me full of enthusiasm.
Then we’ve tried to arrange a first date. Yesterday I drove 15 miles to a place and time he’d suggested, just to find he’d cancelled on 1,5 hour’s notice because he was ’caught up in a neighboring town’ and wouldn’t make it.
Today he wanted to see me but we were both busy during the day. When I suggested 8 pm in his neighborhood he answered it was too late for him.
First I was annoyed. Then I started to suspect he was complicating things to delay the date on purpose, or was playing some game to test me.
And just now I drew a sharp breath thinking I’ve stumbled upon another ADHD person. Who is as sweet as can be probably, but can’t keep appointments because of time blindness, and whose Adderall wears off about seven pm, so can’t have a conversation at night.
Sometimes I feel my world is exclusively inhabited by neurodiverse people and it’s all I’ll ever know.
