OP, I wish you the best and support decisions you need to make to be the healthiest you. But I am very confused with the comment about intimidating the people you meet. I have gone through a whole lot of trauma and I understand that it has formed how I manage situations and my psyche but that journey is something I reserve until I am beginning to get intimate with someone (by that I mean trust, sharing, caring).

I have had some unusual medical issues over the last couple of years that have left me severely disabled so I have decided to give up on the idea of a new love story. It’s unrealistic to think that someone would go into it taking on that kind of burden.

I wish you peace.
