Guest guest Posted September 6, 2006 Report Share Posted September 6, 2006 Del, I understand what you’re saying about getting involved with someone new. I think “who in their right mind would want to get involved with a fat woman with a potentially fatal transmittable virus, pre-diabetes, legs that kick all night and wears an ugly mask with a noisy machine to bed?” I think the realistic answer to that is “no one”. But that doesn’t mean I’m not going to try to make new friends and find people I enjoy spending time with. I’m not going to be a hermit. Maybe, possibly, someone I make friends with will come to love me enough that it doesn’t matter or they decide I’m worth the slight risk. Maybe not, I know. But if I don’t go out and make new friends, I’ll never know. De Re: Fwd: Re: Re: Re:/Gail … That's how i was thinking when I said if if I did meet someone and we didn't even know each other at all, I'm not sure I would pursue the relationship Now..if I had spent time with that special person, and I could see and feel that I liked her, I believe I would be with her always. I guess, I just think " why Del? " Why open up your home and family to someone I just met at church, or the bowling ally, restaurant,etc.... and knew up front that person had a infectious, horrible, disease,. Especially in the twilight of our lives, when we should reap what we've sewn, if healthy enough,. I honestly believe it would affect my judgment regarding pursuing the relationship emotionally.

My "look over your shoulder" sensors are retracting. back behind my ears!!.heh...heh... Sleep may come easier tonight.... Oh!! One more thing...I understand what your saying about you knowing you have to get out there and initialize a network, or something. It's not gonna' come to you. The only time I can remember work OR women coming to my front door, it normally involved some money from MY pocket!! hahaha JOKE!!! hahaha Deliman Del, I understand what you’re saying about getting involved with someone new.

Guest guest Posted September 7, 2006 Report Share Posted September 7, 2006 I can see it working very well - Hi I'm Deb 52 divorced not long ago have Hep C and had a liver transplant you wanna see my transplant scar. Haaaaaaa I still wanna do it just for the shock factor at a sleazy meat market pick-up bar. Seriously I have found my life and types of relationships goes through many stages too. I was always a people person very active and socialized a lot but now it was a big adjustment and I came to the conclusion at this stage of my life and health I don't need or want a serious love relationship to be happy and happy as a clam just me and Rat Dog. I enjoyed living alone in the past and enjoying it more now. I don't have the time and energy anymore for a serious full time love relationship or to start one but very close friends are nice and come in very handy from time to time. I'm always completely honest with people about my health take full precautions for both me and them. I raised 2 kids not knowing I had chronic HCV had 2 husbands and they all are fine now. Life is what you make it so people just enjoy it. Love and Hugs. Deb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 7, 2006 Report Share Posted September 7, 2006 I talk a good story, but I’m not really that great at getting out there. I am getting more active in church, especially in the singles group. Right now, I’m taking a financial class where everyone else is married, but married people often know single people. Every little bit helps. De RE: meeting folks/dating Hi De. You worded it better than I could. Thank you. My " look over your shoulder " sensors are retracting. back behind my ears!!.heh...heh...

Guest guest Posted September 7, 2006 Report Share Posted September 7, 2006 This disease over a period of time isolates us and if possible we have to get involved with something to keep our mind off our own problems.Once some of my bills are paid then I will be able to aford gas for the car and start living again.Church is a good start or a community centre where they will need volenteers.
