Episode 14 An Intro to Dating with ADHD (Ghosting, Limerence & RSD)

Why does dating feel like a rollercoaster when you have ADHD?

In this episode of Girls That ADHD, Sayaka and Anushka get real about dating with ADHD — the thrill, the burnout, and the confusion in between. From online dating dopamine loops to limerence, rejection sensitivity, masking, and the constant “am I being too much?” spiral, we dive deep into what makes modern dating so intense (and exhausting) for ADHDers.

We chat about:

💥 How online dating creates dopamine highs (and eventual dating fatigue)

💥 The struggle with slow-burn relationships and why stable can feel "boring"

💥 How unmasking, vulnerability & RSD (rejection sensitive dysphoria) show up in love

💥 Feeling like you’re “manipulating” when you’re actually just adapting

💥 The ADHD loop of toxic attraction and co-regulation

💥 Why it’s hard to trust yourself and how to tune into your real feelings This is just the beginning — dating with ADHD is a whole journey. Let us know your questions or stories for future episodes.
