The Struggle of Dating with Multiple Sclerosis

Because no one knows how difficult it can be. Empathy isn't something alot of people have in abundance. In the first few years I didn't even mention it to anyone. After time, if trust was there I'd share but never all at once. I hate to say it but those who don't understand or care aren't worth your time anyway. It's a very hard thing to share and when we're just starting to date we want to present ourselves in a good light. Don't worry about dating just focus on yourself and staying as active as possible. There are always chances to meet people who have similar experience and interests, even same issues. Focus on you and the rest will follow. BTW, this is a safe place to vent. We might not be able to fix it but we will listen. ( charlee51)

Because they look at it as guaranteed caretaking at some point. The unknowns are scary.
