Dating With Fibromyalgia
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

Is it best to tell the person you got it first or to wait, sounds like it would be a turn off to people.

I would wait and see how it goes for awhile. Yes I think if you tell him he wouldn't understand. Besides just enjoy your date and if everything gets more serious than you can explain what you have. Good luck! God bless you with a better day!

Im married and this is a fairly new thing for me but my husband doesnt understand and says things like "you need to figure something out about that" or "you need to fix that"

So my advice would be to be upfront with someone about it if you're dating, if it's a "turn off" they can "fuck off" its so much harder when loved ones can't cope

Don't until and unless you really start to grow a relationship with someone. You will eventually learn all the things they have 'wrong' with them as well. Seems we all have something.

Someone did respond to my tinder message earlier tonight and they asked about my service dog and why I need one, they loved my profile and they seemed fine with it as they still chatted some more on tinder. Will see if this goes any further as apparently they don't drink or smoke and is a Christian which is what I am looking for and what they said on their profile.

hey if a person is interested in you they have to keep in mind humanity all parts of it are inclusive of health glitches everyone has one or two but these glitches fibro etc do not take ones value..i have to remind myself of that each day why? I have fibro etc wrong iowa city clinics want me to move closer so I can get appropriate medical care in total..all the testing that was said would be done not one test was ever done they refused. I could let my value slam down which I have my days or realize I give the world so much its better with me in it. and your date hopefully will see that no matter your persuation..you are a treasure hey I did not marry until later in life..miracles happen
