Divine.... The OP has decided to give dating another go around. I see nothing that says she is searching for her soul mate. You are not on disability so you honestly can not say you would disclose right away. There is a huge stigma when people hear the words " I'm on disability"

I feel you are/have been judge mental , You do not have a mental illness that has taken away your ability to work for a while or for good, so you can only assume it would be an easy thing to share..

You are dating a fellow with a illness. I'm happy that you don't have a problem with it.. Hes still a functional adult that you certainly aren't going to be supporting financially. I'm aware you got scammed recently by someone online so I can understand your push for full disclosure. But the OP isn't out to pull one over on someone or get money out of them.

I doubt OP is looking for someone to support her, She is looking to met someone , maybe someones... and just see if there is someone out there that she would like to spend a bit of time with and will disclose before things get serious .. But her shooting herself in the foot before she even meets a guy for coffee or whatnot is only going to put huge stress on her and it certainly isn't going to help her confidence if she thinks she has to tell her life story and all the messy details right out of the gate.

I will bow out of this point, You and I going around in a circle is most likely not going to help the OP ....

Disparaissant, I hope that your able to go out and enjoy meeting some people and just see if you might has things in common and decide to see what happens. Disclose what you want when you feel the time is right, there are no set rules for this. Be kind to yourself
