When I challenge something the other person said then they get upset and we start arguing. But then they change their position to agree with me. And claim to have held the same position as I do from the start.

So now I am the asshole for arguing when we agree on everything!!

Everybody has ADHD and I don’t think it’s on purpose. I just won the argument very thoroughly and this is what it looks like. I feel like I have to get a written record of what the other person is saying before I respond so they don’t accuse me of starting an argument over literally nothing.

(And I have 3rd party witness who confirms my view of the situation is not skewed.)

    Everyone has ADHD

    Was that what you were arguing about? That’s such a crazy statement that if anyone says that to me, I just kinda walk away lol

    I’ve honestly never had someone tell me they agree with me during an argument. Is that something that happens to you often, or just this one person?

      I mean both of us have ADHD

      We were arguing about personal matters that we are both involved in.

      This just happens with this one person. I’m not like, delusional. Or such a big bully that people back down to placate me.

        Ah, OK. The way your post is written is a little confusing to me, but if I look at it as a steam of consciousness or a vent I can see what you mean
