[QUOTE="monkehwife, post: 762517, member: 157932"] I found the best thing to do was just to get on and do what I needed to do insulin wise and ignore the stupid reactions from friends. They soon got used to it as I refused to go to a dirty public toilet to inject. As for when I met my fiancee I was just totally up front and honest with him, in fact my words were if you don't want to see this then look away, if its something that makes you cringe or squeamish then please refrain from any disgusted outburst, this is something I need to do multiple times a day and therefore if it isn't something you can respectfully deal with then I'm afraid we may as well end the date here and now. I'm a very straight down the line kind of person so that may seem a tad harsh but there was no point in beating around the bush about it, anyone who wants to be with you will understand and if anything will respectfully look away or be interested in your condition. Don't let this woman be the marker for how other ladies will react, some are just childish and down right disrespectful! [/QUOTE]
