I recently got diagnosed with inattentive adhd, a lot of stuff started making sense to me.
Idk if anyone else has this but i dont miss most people, my dad has worked in a different country for 3 years and ive never missed him.
I recently saw my grandma and as i was leaving she was crying. i was trying to comfort her but i also realised while i was looking into her eyes i felt nothing.
This keeps me up at night. Why cant i just be normal?
side note: i do miss romantic partners like with my ex but apart from her ive never really missed anyone.
someone please tell me they relate.

is very rare that i miss people. (i have adhd)

My parents are divorced and i pretty much never miss the one im not with. When i had a girl it was also very rare for me to miss her.

But like you, when i hadn’t seen my ex for a long time (around the time she broke up) i did miss her quite a lot, and i’ve also missed having friends in general, and missed connecting with my little brother, after i got out of a pretty bad depression.

But yeah mostly i don’t miss specific people in general.
 
Its normal not to miss people tbh

yeah either don’t miss people or are hyper fixated and can’t get them out my head

My ex has told me the same thing youve said here. I think im nt for the most part but i could understand where she and you come from. I dont really come to miss people all too often too but it must be really different for you guys. Im not a doctor or anything but if i had to guess, being that my dopamine receptors are fried, is that you guys dont see a need to have that emotion since theres no reward in doing ts. That probably why when we look back to our exs, they give us that lil dopamine boost and then we realize the current situation and begin to miss them.
