with your partner in life
how did you recognise her
did she accept your ill
is she ill too ??
thank you
how did you know her
I have had several partners in life.
They were all “normies.”
No one accepted truly my MI:
I met them in bars.
Now im on my own.
“I have got a long line of heartaches i carry it well.”

I tried to reconnect with my ex, but after she told me that I am fool to believe in voices, I didn’t really like her anymore
I’m slightly annoyed you made a thread for guys assuming they’re all straight. At least write “for straight guys” or something.
But I met my boyfriend on Tinder, he’s fine with my diagnosis and he is not ill.

I can change your question if you’d like. So it fits your intention.

I have a partner for a good number of years now. She is a Nurse. When she hears “schizophrenia” she asks herself, “How can I make this individual more comfortable?” That’s typically what a nurse asks, I guess.
She does not have schizophrenia, but she does see a psych nurse and get psych meds for anxiety and depression.

My last girlfriend was a hypochondriac. I broke up with her because of it. I couldn’t take it anymore. But moreso because she was using her made up illnesses to manipulate situations.
I’ve had a few partners in my life, but they were all before I got diagnosed.
I don’t really ask anyone out anymore. I’ve become super shy since being diagnosed.
I do have some crushes though hehehe

I’ve been single for 4 years now, I tried getting with a few girls after diagnosis, didn’t go far. I’m too insecure about med boobs and stretch marks from med weight and sz diagnosis to even try and approach a girl, and dating apps or online ain’t really for me. But at least I had some fun and a few relationships before sz.

I’ve only had one steady girlfriend in my life, and that was before sz. I haven’t had a gf since becoming sz, but I’ve tried the online dating sites a bit and I occasionally chat with girls there. Nothing serious, though.
What year were you diagnosed with sz? How old were you?
