Dating With Fibro.

Does anyone have advice, opinions or experiences to share when it comes to relationships and fibro? It has been just my daughter and for so long in ready to find someone. However, I'm scared to because this disorder is so unpredictable and debilitating at times. Who wants to come I into my life and stay? Plus I have an autoimmune disease and mental health challenges. I mean I'm stable and independent but still. I don't maybe share some words of encouragement. Love y'all this group is so awesome.

Maybe a reputable dating sight may be an idea. Then before you date they will know a little about your fibro and how it affects you. You are a pretty girl from your photo, I dont think you'll have any problems. I too was a single mum for a few years and thats always a barrier regarding trust and security issues for the child. I wish you all the luck and hope you have fun finding the right one :-)

Keehnma, I haven't dated in a year, I've been divorced for 7. When I was married, I was called lazy because I was so tired all the time and needed naps, despite working full time, was in grad school full time and was pretty much taking care of our twins while he was off having an affair...

I had a male friend who broke up with a girl because she had fibromyalgia -she "couldn't keep up with his active lifestyle"... (Needless to say, I lost most respect for him and we rarely talk anymore...I thought "what a shallow selfish ass, if he only knew how hard it is to hurt all the time and still try to put oneself out there to TRY to date with all this fatigue and pain"... IDK my friend, after all said and done, I'm trying to be the best mom I can be while most often in pain and fatigue, with having little support, working full time in a job I hate...if the good Lord can bring a man that can love me through this life despite all that, then heck! Bring it on! But until then...I'm cool just being a mom. My most important relationship is between my sons and myself, and I'm ok with that for the first time since my divorce. 😉

If the person is right for you they will understand and support you as long as you explain everything
