I try to take as best care of myself as possible with phy therapy, body work, yoga, supplements etc.I choose sports where i felt fully functional like river boating and bike riding. I popped lots of ibuprofen before dancing or in new social situations. I felt lucky to connect with women despite my limitation,but I am now un-coupled now and looking at surgery in 51/2 weeks. Sure would be nice to have someone to be close with now. I feel blessed with wonderful friends who offer and extend their TLC. I do miss the intimacy though especially as surgery approaches. I am sure I will survive and all. I know people do it on their own just fine. That being said I was wondering if people have dated before and through and after surgery . how does the partner accept this limitation in the other. or do you feel it is a time to just shut down your dating desire and focus on healing. maybe we need a surface hippy dating surface. 51 yr old single, previously active male with limp seeks woman with scar . or hip mixers : friends with scars and those who love them are invited to mingle with members of the tribe yummies include: glucosamine goulash, organic salad with turmeric dressing, wild salmon and ginger sauce activities include: show us your scar, you rub mine I'll rub yours , limp the night away, or it hurt so bad. or supplement share, healing exchange, cartilage regeneration visualization, bring on the stem cells. thanks and good healing. , bay area, calif. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2004 Report Share Posted February 16, 2004 That being said I was wondering if people have dated before and throughand after surgery . , Funny you should bring up the subject of dating. I've just started looking for a man. I've always wanted to be married, but my hips got so bad that there were certain things important to a marriage that I would not have been able to offer a man, at least not in the normal fashion. Now that I'm bionic, healthy, capable, and ready, hopefully I will start dating again. 43, female, perfectly matched scars, gives great back rubs (I'd be willing to rub scars too, for the right person ;-).

Guest guest Posted February 17, 2004 Report Share Posted February 17, 2004 Dear Steve: I can tell from your last line that you're a closet swimmer. I'm glad I helped you come out. Des could even be short for Desdemona, which I suppose is close to desire if you're a Shakespeare fundi. Given your preference for chromium cobalt, I imagine you've bought every CD ever produced by " Metallica " . As a six million dollar man, you can satisfy all your needs without even scraping the surface. Tally ho! Des P.S. My photo is on the surfacehippy website In a message dated 2/17/2004 9:46:48 AM Pacific Standard Time, jefftrapold@... writes: dear interested party, thank you for your interest in my personal add. des, is that short for " desire' " ?.....that's a pretty name. at this time, " desire " , i'm not totally convinced that you are a female. please send photo. as for my preference for exotic hip chicks, i believe that variety is good. some guys prefer brunettes, i prefer chromium cobalt. to me it matters not what is ON the surface, but what IS the surface. sincerely, steve austin (the six million dollar man) p.s. to answer your question....it's to mix up the gene pool.

Guest guest Posted February 17, 2004 Report Share Posted February 17, 2004 Terrific post, Steve! I was alternately either impossible to live with or in too much pain to care preoperatively. Things have improved dramatically since my surgery. Even my wife agrees and that never happens. Whatever limitation you may feel at the moment will evaporate once the pain is gone. I suspect that you'll be so promptly noticed by the glow that you might have to take the 800 number out of your window and go to something unlisted! Hang in there...
