Weekends when we have nothing planned are great for this, sometimes morning, afternoon and night!

And yes, there's actual flirting, I just dont whip it out and say, hey, let's do this...

Since she is well aware of her ADD and presumably the affects it has in her behaviors...

Has she ever attempted to learn some coping mechanisms?
Triggers for herself to help her prevent hurting others and herself unknowingly.

If not, this could be a good place to start.

You need to make her aware of how her behavior makes you feel and work towards a solution that can work to midigate the issues that come out of it.

It's a good exercise for both of you to undergo regardless of her issues dealing with attention issues, Don't make it just about her

My son dates a girl who acts the way you describe your GF, especially the "being late" and making him wait part.

It's very telling. You need to tell her that you realized she is never really late if SHE makes the plans. It makes it look like she doesn't really care, and she should know that it looks that way.

It's such an internal struggle with me. I really do love her, more than anyone else. We fit together in so many ways. But I have worked hard for what I have, and in regards to the cleanliness issue, when I wake up in the morning some weekends and there is just her **** everywhere, it hurts. I have a hard time conveying HOW much it hurts.

Same thing when I make plans that she genuinely seems excited about, then wastes half the day sleeping in or on the computer.

Why is it a struggle? You're afraid she'll walk out if you call her on something?

No, i'm not afraid she will leave, the struggle is can I live with it if she is unwilling to change. We HAVE discussed this, I probably have not been as forceful or shown how much it affects me when I have had this discussion, but I have not avoided it.

Bring it up again, but not from the perspective of how she needs to change, only from the perspective of how it affects you and makes YOU feel.
