This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I'm so sorry :(

This happened to my wife, FWIW, from an old horrible partner (abusive too, v cool). Her outbreaks got milder over time to where now they're a minor inconvenience at most. And they don't get in our way, so to speak.

Even though, yes, some folks are now preemptively and permanently out of your dating pool, I'd argue that a lot of the people self-excluding in that way have done you a favor.

Love is strong stuff! I can imagine how low you feel about this, but I hope you allow space for it to improve over time and you don't give up on having a sex life or romantic partners. You're worthy of love, this dumb (and seriously common) disease can't change that :)
