Oh do I understand......oh man do I understand.......I am SO GLAD you posted this!!!!! I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in May 06. My first thought was that I'd be "undateable". I ended up falling back into a relationship with an ex who is still a great friend, because I didn't want to be alone, and he was there for me. It was a mistake. It was like trying to force romance on a great friendship.

Now I'm in the position to date again, and it is very hard. For the most part, the men in my life know of my diagnosis because I'm very open about it. Saturday though, my disease reared its ugly head in front of a guy I'm interested in and it was really hard. He actually volunteered to help me by going and getting my car (long story). I tend to not want guys to see my bad days, becaue I'm afraid they won't want to put up with it, and that I'll be single forever.

I guess for me, I have to have faith that there's a man out there who will love all of me....even all my problems. But its definetly a huge fear.....so I'm really glad you posted this, because I'm in the same boat!!!!!!!!!!
