[QUOTE="Grant_Vicat, post: 2311447, member: 388932"] While at Uni in London, I was in a department of 67 students. It was inevitable that they would find out I was Type 1. Out of 4 girlfriends, the first was fascinated by diabetes and what she called sugar attacks. The relationship was too fiery as it turned out,but she is still my daughter's Godmother! The next two, especially the second of them, seemed highly irresponsible when I was in a bad way, while the fourth is still my wife. She not only started off as a true friend, but 2 years later phoned my mother when I was hypoing. I knew then that Helen was the right choice. I would say that any partner of somebody with any condition comparable to diabetes needs to be understanding, patient, and to take their partner for their human attributes and worth rather than ranting about a condition that is inflicted on them with sometimes visible side effects. Neither Helen nor I look like we did 42 years ago, but who cares? I'm sure there is the right person out there. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
