To feel like I’m never happy in a relationship

I have had several long term relationships - after around 5-6 years I just get totally bored and fed up. Usually get the ick and start longing for excitement from another source.
I do have ADHD so not sure if this is part of it. I can’t envisage myself being in a relationship with just one person for the rest of my life.

I'm exactly the same, except I don't have adhd. It's as if I just wake up one day and almost can't stand the sight of him. When I was younger I always just thought I hadn't met the right person. I've given up now. Been single>10yrs now.

I have adhd and similar feelings. But my partner is a good dad and provider so I stay. Hes a good person. Not as affectionate as I would like and never takes me out but the pros outweigh the cons. We have kids so leaving bc the romance is gone makes no sense. I’ve no interest in entering the dating world, seems awful from the horror stories I hear. I’ll soldier on til the kids are grown then reassess .

I have ADHD and felt like this in most of my relationships.
Since I left my ex-husband when my twins were babies (not because I was bored/restless, but because of DA and drug usage (his, not mine!)), I've actually stayed single and celibate. 7 years this April!
I've been MUCH happier!
