Finding love

[butterfly4]

I just wondered if you are really bad with emetophobia and cant leave the house can you still find someone to love you and take care of you. I certainly wish i could find someone to be with me for life without them being horrible to me about it. Maybe its me but i have been treated so horribly because i am ill and there are things i cant do i have been punished for it so bad. I have a very kind heart and lots of love to give and only want someone to love me for me.

I definitely think it is possible to find someone who will love you and not judge you for your illness. My fiancé has been just that for me. I'll never forget a time early in our relationship when we were watching a movie and he knew a v* scene was on the way. I suddenly felt his hand over my eyes. One time, we even both came down with a stomach bug, and he turned on the shower to drown out his being sick. These people do exist!

There is someone out there for you. My hubby didn't really know or understand my emet and I still thinks he struggles with it but he loves me for me even with all my crazy fears. Hes out there

My boyfriend has had problems with selfishness and only thinking of himself... for instance, one night I had alcohol poisoning (horrible, horrible), I was in his kitchen and I v*. He knew about my phobia but started screaming at me anyway to get to the bathroom. I busted down crying, crawled on all fours to the toilet.... I was in hysterics and v*.... That was at the beginning of the relationship, and since then he has been such a blessing to me. He is quick to take care of me when I get n* (which is a lot now because I have GERD and a sinus infection). He gets stuff from me and doesn't touch me when I tell him not to (I hate being touched when I'm n*...). I don't know what I would do if I was n* without him. Sometimes for 4-5 hours he will sit outside the bathroom while I'm laying by the toilet. I consider my boyfriend to be significantly more selfish (although he has become selfLESS over time about this!) so I don't think there is much to worry about. When you care about someone, you want to take care of them!
