Im just curious to see if there are others out there who feel the same way I feel about my intimate relationships. I have a real hard time commiting to a relationship, cause I just dont want to share my CF with anyone. Its bad enough I have to deal with it and I dont want anyone else to go through what I'm going through. Im not saying I feel its right, in fact I know these feelings arent normal. I just want to see if there is anyone else who feels the same way.

Can't relate.... I tell anyone and everyone about my CF. it's not my identity, but it's part of who I am and I'm not ashamed to educate others.
My boyfriend, boyfriend's family, boss, co-worker, VP of my company, people in the groccery store line with me, classmates, customers. No one is uncomfortable with it because I'm not. People don't treat it like a big deal because I don't present it as a big deal.
It is what it is....

I can't really relate either. I'm very open about my CF, and actually like to tell people about it. They are usually very inquisitive, and I like to answer their questions so more people can grasp what it is and be aware of it. It typically doesn't scare people off at all, which is good. Younger kids that have I've known have been like "is it contagious?!" but once we're over that hurdle, it's fine.

I am the same as Amy. I also have such a phobia & actually experienced peoples assumptioms of my low weight or cough to be something that has a bigger stigma attached. I cant change it. Good/bad its a part of me and anyone important in my life has agreed to take it on otherwise they wouldnt be in my life. I couldnt imagine trying or having to hide something that takes up such a bit part of my life even if it doesnt define me completely as the person I am!

Oh snap I suppose I should have chosen my words a lil better. I do tell any one and aeveryone about my cf also. Im not embarassed. I just push people away cause I dont think they can handle it. I cant commit in relationships and when every I get close to someone i push them away. I hate being single, but I cant handle beringing someone close into my liffe and subjecting them to my burden.

I understand your thoughts a bit better, but my response is the same. Maybe this sounds a bit conceded, but I assure them that any issues from my CF that arise is worth the effort whether its a long term relationship or a few dates. <b><i>I</b></i> am worth the challenge. No question about it!
