My boyfriend does not have self awareness. How do I handle this?

Hi everyone,

My partner is very loving and caring to me. He suspects that he may have adhd, and I do see signs, like his disorganized living space and trouble regulating himself in certain situations.

Something that has been bothering me is his lack of self awareness. For example, he will sit too close to me at inappropriate times, chew loudly in public, his pants do not fit right and fall too low in public, sometimes his pant leg will be tucked into his sock, or something will be stuck to him and he does not notice. He also does not always follow social cues in public, and will stay too close to me and make me feel anxious, and almost mirror my behavior without trying to interact with my friends.

This behavior is more noticeable in loud environments. When we are doing something quiet together these behaviors are a lot less.

I think this is something intrinsic to him, but maybe if I point some of this out he will have the chance to work on it?
