Sure, sure.
But, isnt it better to teach people how to be independent than forcing them to be something they dont want to be ?
That’s all Im gonna say.
That’s what I’m trying to say. People should be independent and work on themselves instead of jumping into a relationship with someone, expecting it to cure all their problems

A lot of males with SZ have never had a girlfriend, I was like that into my thirties, it was a great source of my mental anxiety and though finally falling into a relationship didn’t cure me, it relieved a lot of the mental stress that I had built up around the issue and helped me to progress enormously.
I think you got to be in a good place with yourself before you look for love,
When i was in the hospital in 2004 i met my ex gf but i wasnt looking for a gf, she kind of made all the moves, i didnt think i could have a relationship bc of my situation but it worked out ok for a long time, we did loads together and we supported each other all the time.

Very true. I only started to date again when I knew I was stable, as part of a relationship is helping with your partner’s needs. 2 years ago I could only focus on myself. I don’t want to date someone just for them to take care of me.

I just got out of a relationship and we were perfectly fine. We were in the planning stages of moving in together when we broke up. It can be done.
My friend had a baby recently, him and his wife 
so happy for them, he is called Arran and is probably gonna be called a Coronial haha Corona Baby lol
I’m not saying relationships are impossible when someone has a mental illness.
I’m saying they’ll quickly turn toxic if one or both enters the relationship because they’re just lonely and/or thinking a relationship will fix their problems
Yes. If you want to get your own way all of the time, you’re not ready.

There is nothing wrong with wanting a partner. Even people who arent ready to be in a relationship yearn for one, and a romantic partner is way different than an ordinary friend.
People who arent ready for a relationship are still allowed to dream and have desires. There is no shame in that.
As far as the “sexy” part goes, well some people put a lot of importance in looks. What is an important attribute to you isnt important for everyone and vice versa.
Yes people should be warned that it wont fix all of their problems, but in no way should they stop hoping for something that they want.

Also I’d like to add that having a partner can indeed make ones life better it is a healthy relationship. Being lonely is bad for your health, and it can be very lonely to feel unfulfilled in one’s romantic life.

It’s really not.
We have the internet now !
I get what you’re saying @Pikasaur. It is unhealthy to get into a relationship just to fix yourself. A person needs to work on themselves before trying to fix their life by dragging another into it.

I, too, am tired of people thinking a romantic relationship would fix all their problems.
It’s just a sex thing, @Pikasaur, don’t let it bother you.

I think more or less I fell in love with Phil’s mannerisms.
Not sure though.
The sex is good too.

People are allowed to dream…about a sexy girlfriend…a hunkish boyfriend…about that house with the white picket fence…and three kids.
What’s wrong with that? It’s perfectly normal to me.
