You can only work on yourself and be happy with who you are and where you are going before you can be happy being in a relationship. Someone is not going to make you happy nor is a relationship. When you are happy with you and who you are then you can be happy with someone and the two can move forward to push to make each other better people.

Yes @A MyEpilepsyTeam Member, hit the nail on the head. In order for relationships to work you need to work on inner self. Otherwise the chemistry won't blend well. Sometimes it's disguised, misleading. But when feeling happy & confident it can happen, if meant to be.

I was in a relationship for a long time. On the verge of divorce. Right now, I'm enjoying the freedom. Does get lonely? Sometimes. But I feel if it's meant to be it'll happen on it's own.
Look at all the strange people in society these days. More of a reason to just mingle while keeping alert. Like I said if it's meant to be it'll happen.😉🕉

When. I was entering my adulthood , I wanted to have a relationship but at the same time I was worried about injuring her if she was sitting or laying next to me. Then the next thing would be , that people will accuse me for abuse.

It wasn’t until , after my brain surgery. My seizures reduced to mild and moderate from sever.

Its the people who are willing to try and learn to undeterstand our disorder and hopefully one of those people are willing to go the next step.

I appreciate your advice. In a nutshell, I will take life in baby steps and see what happens.
