I Am Lonley

My ex husband of 15 years left our 4 kids and me 3 years ago. I have a pain illness that means I have to use a walking stick when I'm out. He spent years knocking my confidence telling me I was a "old ugly cripple who no one would ever want". Since then I've found it hard not to feel that he is/Was right. I feel like my illness defines me and that it will be the only thing people see. So I tend to lock myself away which compounds the feelings of isolation and loneliness.

My GF was mistreated like you describe also. She now lives with me and we are so right for each other. So you WILL find the right one for you also, if you try.. We were not trying, but found each other on EP and followed to SW.. Started a long distance relationship that grew, and I talked her into retiring her 24/7 caretaking live in job and moving 600 miles away from family and friends to live with me in the frozen north (Michigan)...

She uses a cane to walk with very arthritic hips and bad knees and has breathing problems...
I also have breathing problems and we are both overweight..

My point is, that it is NOT your physical condition the defines you.
She has a high libido and is a good cook and nutritionist..
She is convinced that with fresh food and a battery of supplements, that she can reverse my erectile dysfunction..
The main reason I was not looking for anyone.. I could no longer "perform".
But she is willing to exercise me with little reward, so long as we share oral sex and are honest in our relationship.

IT CAN WORK FOR YOU ALSO..
Do not get down on yourself..
You DO HAVE good qualities, even though I don't know you..
It's all about finding someone(s) who need those qualities in their life...
AND are willing to meet your needs in return..

I hope that 2018 is a great year for you..
