      Been single since 2012. I'm just not interested. Before that my last one was 2006. I just don't actively seek it out. I don't have a ton of social things or people I have. Asexual pan romantic, non-monogamous non-binary person. Plus why do I deserve anyone? No one really likes me in general

      Well, I’m married. Did it last year. BUT. Being ND and in love with another ND (with different problems) can be hard. Since tying the knot, I’ve been kicked out twice. I actually JUST moved back in with my wife and I’m soooooo happy about it. But know it’s not easy for me either. Stay strong 💜

      I've been with my partner for 22 years now and have definitely felt that sting within my relationship. I've had anxiety, mood swings, been suicidal and had multiple hospitalizations. I've also had to deal with his anger issues and drinking problems. That being said, we love each other and have committed to working on our relationship and pushing through the barriers that come up. It's been really difficult at times and we almost didn't make it more than once, but we're in a good place now and we're at a point where I can say we are good for each other. That's a direct result of that work that we put into this. That sting of suffering , that pain, is a sign that we're alive and fighting for things to be better. They can and will be better. I hope that sting lessons for you soon. If you'd like to chat, feel free to DM me. I wish you the best on your journey.😁

      Honestly love life. At this point, the two people who love me the most are my dad and my bird. My love life is affected my fact I'm LGBTQ, and that I have a chronic pain disorder. I also don't have a driver's license so I can't really go on dates and (also I'm in the closet about the fact that I'm bi so I can't openly date girls). I don't go to high school anymore, since I graduated so I don't really have any choices to date, but for online dating. I've never dated before so I don't know how to flirt, and I look small, so if I flirted with someone, they would think I'm underage. 💀
