Thanks everyone!! I feel much better about it. I am not going to let one bad apple get me down. I know it will be hard. Dating is hard enough without having health issues, but I know God has someone out there for me who will love me no matter what. I am a great person who will give my all in a relationship so I shouldn't expect any less from them. I always said I would never settle, so I am not going to. I just needed the reminder and you all reminded me!! THANKS!!

Don't take the breakup as a downer, but as a blessing. You found out early that he is not accepting you for who you are.

As I tell my girlfriend that her RSD is part of who she is. The RSD has made her stronger and more mature and open to new things.

Now would you want to date someone who can not accept you for who you are? What happens fruther down the road when you get married? How would he deal with marriage, children, and RSD? Would he be there for you and children then?

It sounds to me that this guy has a relationship issues. This has nothing to do with your condition. A real husband/father will not use any medical condition as a excuse to not take responsiblity.

Thanks, I thought about the same things. I would rather find out now then later on down the road. I don't want to be with someone who cannot accept me for who I am. Your girlfriend is lucky to have you. I hope I find someone who will accept me, all of me, one day.
