MS and dating 💔
I was seeing someone for about 2.5 months and things were going great with us Until I told him about my diagnosis, he was upset that I didn’t tell him sooner and said that he would’ve been more open to accepting it if I gave him time to actually think about it before things got too deep with us. I don’t really know the rules of when and how someone you’re dating and telling them about your diagnosis.
I was married before for seven years, my ex husband met me right after I was diagnosed and accepted it so I’ve been in a relationship while having MS but I guess now this is just new for me and it’s frustrating.
I’ve been divorced/single for three years now, living with MS for 10 years.
How does everyone handle dating and letting your partner know about your diagnosis?
The earlier you let them know the better it's for both of you... I got divorced because of this to....i guess you need to start learning on how to live on your own...sorry about everything ms has put you through we just have to keep living.
Im considering the Big D just because my spouse and I just aren’t compatible. Took me 10 yrs to figure this out. Therapy has helped me plan and navigate how to live on my own with MS. I was diagnosed 2 yrs into the marriage. So appreciate @sherryphils comment.
