Being single

Well, it has been a month since I posted here. Nothing has changed. We are still in the same house. I sort of feel like and old sock he's trying to decide whether he wants to keep or not.

My fibro is through the roof. I think I'll just crawl into bed today and not deal with anything.

I am lonely a lot of the time, and I am married. Not meaning that my husband and myself aren't happy, we are. But, it is the sense of isolation as friends get fed up when you are in pain and not able to meet up with them. Also eating out and going to the cinema is practically out of it, as I find it hard to be comfortable.
I agree that loneliness can come in many forms, it's great that we are talking about it. x

I have been liveing with my mother for 6 years tis winter and I just turned 48 and single haveing a tough time getting a date.I have been engaged but just never worked out for me.I movec to my moms house because sshe got sick and I helped her ut along the way up until she got sick a 2nd time.She just passed away 1 @ 1/2 years ago.I am liveing alone now and do not have animals any more either.I am looking for someone to be able to spend time with mabe more.There are single woman around here but hard to find the right one most of them do not reply back that live not far from me.ihave never been married and had not havea date for awhile either.

We do have our own dating site called 'Disabled Partners' that is still in infancy but a good place to start there are a few disabled dating sites about you just have to look. I think this is a good idea as disabled people need love as much as able bodied people. Also able bodied dating sites do have disabled people on them but I don't know the ratio of able bodied people looking for disabled partners. But finding your soul mate can happen anywhere in the supermarket or like I found my husband on a blind date sometimes it happens when you least expect it. I'm a big romantic and believe these someone for everyone so don't ever give up.

I would like to meet a partner someday who I can share my time with.

May I suggest taking a look at our dating site 'Disabled Partners' you can find a link to the site on our homepage and it's free to join.

I wish you well Glenn. Love is expectedmand found in the most unexpected places but watch out for charlatans who profess undying love but arereally using you. Follow your gut instinct and don't be influenced by the first callers. If it is too good to be true, it probably is! Ask lots of questions and analyse the answers. Think very hard. Does this person fit the bill? Does he or she really come across as somene who really wants to be with me or even could be with me? Are we compatable, both geographically and yes, physically, emotionally and socially? What are their limitations and expectations? What are mine? Some people say they can cope with disability but when it comes to the reality they can't. They may be good with others but when it comes to reality and close contact they, you cannot cope. I know. I was in a marriage for many years before I became disabled and although he had coped with others disabled as a friend, carer etc. he could not cope with me and all the inconvenience of life that disability can bring. Suddenly he made me invisible. Bubbadog is very lucky and there are good people out there. I've since learnt. But ask friends, family and yourself, especially, does this person suit me? Am I right for this person? Do we have a future together long term? If you are in doubt, give it time and make your life fuller, if you are able. Try to enlarge your social life. Both sexes. This gives you a more balanced view on your future. You owe this to yourself and will help you to make wise decisions. And hopefully you will find enduring love for yourself and for your partner. Your soul-mate. I truely wish you well and good luck. Good judgement and good love.

being single has 2 sides to the coin ..... one side is not feeling the love of that special some one .... and on the other side of the coin is not being hen-pecked when you know ur right but always in the wrong lol (probably gonna get a kickin for that lol)#

No, no you are totally right! But after being married 15 years (this weekend!) and being with the same person for 20 years you pick up little clever idea's like my favourite. Rather than get in to a fight with said partner over who thinks of the good idea, when it was 100% obviously your idea let your partner think it was their idea and let them take the praise but knowing it was your idea all a long!!

Oh yes works everytime :laugh:

See another clever woman agrees, it's a win-win every time!!
