Would you be open to date a guy who struggles with incontinence issues?

[ErickAndreas]

I'm a 26 year old guy who struggles with bowel incontinence because of disability. I've never dated and honestly barely talked with a woman because I'm too shy. Are my struggles too big for me to experience love?

I personally don't date simply because it does not interest me and that I have other priorities in life than dating.

However, if I was into dating, then incontinence would not be an issue because this is a health issue that you have little control over. It is important though to communicate openly with your potential or future partner that your incontinence issue does not interfere with your intellect, character or personality. Those 3 assets are much more important than a physical challenge because in everyday life, this does not pose a major problem in a relationship.

Now, you obviously have to work on your shyness and anxiety to talk with women. You have to leave your comfort zone because if you don't do anything about it, nothing will ever happen. Good luck.

Thanks for saying this. I'll see what I can work on

Good luck and you can practice your approach in front of a mirror.

You'll find everyone has something they deal with. Don't let it consume you and you will be fine.

[ErickAndreas]

Okay. I'll try

Not an issue if you are upfront and have things under control.

Nope, you are on your own with that one.
