I would love to hear from anyone that is currently single with MS and trying to date, or anyone that was single and is now in a relationship/married. How do/did you deal with dating and disclosing the diagnosis with your partner? How do you get over the thought of feeling like "damaged goods" or tha...

Morning all. I have a question to both Men and women. My wife of 20 yrs a few months back now decided she wanted to end our marriage. Her main reason was that she did not like the progression on my MS ending the line with” your MS is not what I signed up for” she must have missed the line in sicknes...

Dating

So, I’m not sure if it’s me or not but dating has become difficult for me. I feel like my significant other talks to me as if I’m a child or like I just don’t understand period & it’s getting to me badly. We’ve been dating for over 2yrs & I’ve been saying the same thing to her, that I don’t ...

Just curious what everyone's experience has been with dating. So far mine sucks. Most guys bail as soon as I tell them I have MS. I realize if they can't deal with it I am better off without them but it just gets exhausting having to deal with it all the time. :(

I haven't been on a proper date in a while and I was thinking about joining a dating site. Shouldn't let my ms stop me meeting new people and having fun. Have any of you guys done this? Are there people out there that want to go out with someone with ms? I hope so.

I was married when I was diagnosed, then I left my husband (nothing to do with ms), that was 18 months ago. I go out a lot with my friends and get attention from men, but I'm nervous of starting a new relationship as I don't want to be a potential burden to anyone! Does anyone else feel like this??

Dating someone with MS

I’ve recently started dating someone with MS. I don’t know much about it but want to know more. I’ve been researching online and talking to her about it. I don’t want to be insensitive but want to know more. She is amazing and has such a positive outlook.
