    I have a clingy girlfriend who needs attention at almost all times and I can’t leave her be for very long or she gets depressed. I have ADHD, so it becomes exhausting after a while. I just wanna be left alone to do my own thing sometimes and will do whatever I can to do so. I can’t spent 8 hours talking, I don’t have the attention span and don’t like small talk. I love hanging out with her, don’t get me wrong, but I crave alone time to focus on my own stuff.
