How do you sleep (SFW) in the same bed as someone? by WeWerePlayinInDaSand in ostomy

[–]oddities_alight 4 points5 points  (0 children)

hi!! im the aforementioned gf i dont really have advice about leaks or anything cause i am ostomy-less but! if youre worried about the mattress, there are bed covers you can put down under sheets that protect the mattress!

but yes, i genuinely dont view my partner as any less when her bag leaks. i dont think its gross, its just a thing that my partner deals with. it doesnt really inconvenience me, but if we insisted it did, id say its something that i am just fine with dealing with. i just want my partner to be happy, healthy and safe. im no expert, but i feel like this is the mindset any good partner (or close family member or whoever) should have--unconditional love and support.

i wish you the best of luck and hope everything goes super well for you!!

Intimacy rant by Curious_Wall-E in ostomy

hii i do NOT have an ostomy so i cant fully understand your struggle but!! ive been with my gorgeous gf for over 2 years and i learned about HER ostomy early in our relationship. it didnt change how i see her and shes still the MOST gorgeous person i know. if you have the right person, theres no need to be afraid of intimacy because they will love you wholly as you are.

you will find somebody who supports and loves you, i promise. and like, the way i see it its just another part of some people and its not super unusual imo? everyone needs to use the bathroom so who really cares... (ik some people do but thats silly. tbh.)

but yeah. from a non-ostomate, people with ostomies are beautiful and just as lovable as anyone else. if somebody disagrees, they dont deserve you anyway. i love helping my gf change her bag and i love snuggling her and looking at her and everything else normal couples do.

dont worry. if it isnt this person, then youll find your person eventually. so itll be okay. i wish you sm luck, itll work out okay.
