Both me and my partner have D.I.D.

We met online, and talked for a while. And then I got the courage to tell him, and he told me he had the same thing, and I guess that just bonded us closer. We were both terrified to be in another relationship because in the past we both had alters who would feel dejected in romantic situations and would sabatoge relationships.

But we've been together for almost 5 years now, we live together, and have had hard times and great times. And we've done a lot of healing just being together and sharing our past experiences.

It's really the best thing that ever happened to me, meeting him.

I think, we've both counted, looking back at old pictures and diaries and whatnot, that we each of us has well over 60 alters each.

So, it can get a little hectic at times, trying to decide "Oh well so and so wants time out with the body, and so and so and blah dont get along well" So we've had conflicting situations.

But the cool thing about it is, for every person inside me, he has a person for them. So really it's like falling in love over and over.

Some small advice: If either of you feel vulerable or triggered and you get in an arguement or something, just let it work its-self out

There were many times where we both felt like calling it quits because two people healing at the same time can be a power struggle sometimes.

But I know in the DEPTHS OF MY HEART, that I love him too much to ever leave, and no one else could ever have or give the understanding we have between us.

Good luck in your relationship I wish you both well!
