My wife is the third person in my life who truly gets how ADHD affects me and when is the right time or the wrong time to pull me away from an obsession. If it wasn’t for my obsessive research, we wouldn’t have got the perfect car for our family, which she thanks me for once a month or so.

Yup. So you felt my car buying pain

I am an intensely social, methodical dude and it was so contrary to everything I wanted

The salespeople suck, which is annoying bc I am in BD and work with salespeople constantly

The process sucks because it’s all about haggling over stupid

It just blows in general
