My ADHD autist girlfriend does this all the time. She just needs a bit of extra time to process. I don't mind it and I usually don't need to repeat what I said. You get used to it.

I have ADHD and Autism too and this happens to me as well.

I think the autism makes it harder to understand people with background noise and the ADHD makes me blurt out "huh?".

After I have already said it, my mind will go over what has been said a few times and try to figure out what could have been said and it will probably figure it out.
