Hello there, I’m new here, and I’m wondering why it seems that communication on the forum is very limited? Is everyone using Chat? I have tried Chat , yahoo, msn, and so on , in the past, in fact, met my first wife that way over 12 years ago. But more recently Ive had nothing but troubles with chat programs so I refrain form using them. The tend to make more security problems than I find Chat worth. Anyone else ever have that problem?
So, once I was introduced abruptly into the wonderful world of gimpism, I was met with immediate sympathy , soon followed by an abrupt and unfortunately a long lasting stigma that has caused friends and family to run away as if I was a walking carrier of Ebola. No more invites to parties. No more does anyone drop in after work. No more invites to family camp outs or gatherings. They just quietly but quickly stop all contact. Occasionally receive an occasional mass mailing of a joke from people I can only assume forgot to, or didn’t know how to take me out of their email address book. I’ve had a couple of these so called friends of my past tell me that its nothing personally, but seeing me disabled makes them feel bad, and its hard to have fun then. This is always followed by a smile and “ So by all means, stay in touch†These were very long time friends as well! You just gotta love friendship like that. [ I figure that I will just win the lottery, become an instant multi millionaire, and when they come running back, I can tell them all to piss off and laugh ! ok, I can still daydream cant I ?? ]
My wife left saying I was bad for her social life. No s---, she said that. On a Friday she tells me she loves me and wouldn’t leave me for anything in the world. The following Tuesday she comes home from work, tells me Im bad for her social life, and is filing for a divorce! 8 years of marriage and 2 kids and one accident that had me laid up for a couple years, and she wanted to move on. Oh well, such is life.
So here is the question, has anyone else experience these ?
How do you deal with the days of total depression over how things just seem to turn to total crap in the blink of an eye?
How do you go about finding a person , online or in the physical world, who is fine with people like us? Most whom I assume are on fixed income at this time , or have been in the past, or expect to be in the near future? I find the income level is more of an deterrent when it comes to dating. If you don’t have a newer car, a big house and a lavish income, you the cute guy and maybe , if your lucky, a friend. And I know how friends treat the disabled. |
