Is it possible for someone with skin problems to have a relationship?
ladylove asked:
My friend is having this kind of issue. She wears long sleeved clothing even during the summer. I haven’t seen her body so I don’t know how severe her skin issues are. She thinks that no guy will ever be interested in her because of it, and I tell her that one day she will meet the right person who will see past it and accept her for who she is, but she highly doubts it. What can I say to make her feel better about all of this?

If I’ve learned one thing in life it’s that there is someone for everyone out there … so yes. Absolutely. One way is to meet someone line - it gives them a chance to fall for her without pre-judging her. Fowler Fan
There really isn’t much that you can say to her that will make her feel better. I myself suffered from severe acne for 12 years until my doctor put me on medication called ACCUTANE so tell her to talk to her doctor about getting put on this medication so she doesn’t have to do crazy stuff like wear long sleeves during the Summer.

My legs have really deep ugly scars and I have a wheelchair,I met someone and within a year he gave me an engagement ring.With some people it really is the person they fall for. Wendy
I can’t imagine how difficult it is for her. But the reality is they guys MUST except her for who she is… Eventually she will find that “someone”, and it will only make her stronger. For example myself, I had the fear of a relationship period, mind you i have no problems, and I met this guy through the internet (which can be an option for her) and when we eventually met, i was soo nervous. I honestly did not think it would not work. It turned out that the day we met I felt kinda of nervous, but I felt like we knew each other for years, now were are a year married and he has more experience than me. He excepts me for who I am and love me. Which is why i said the guy MUST except her for who she is. My friend had alopecia (it’s a disease of hair loss) and it was hard for her too b/c she was bald. She wore bandanas, than eventually wore a wig. And that helped. Turned out that she ended having a relationship for 3 years ( the guy excepted her for who she was). They broke up for other reasons (taking advantage of her by using a lot of her money) So I hope this helped and all the best with you friend, at times she will cry but it happenes. You just have to find a way around it that is all. Think of it this way it could be much worse. If it is treatable, than treat it and work around it.
Good Luck!
P.S. She was the one who found the idea of the wig. She found w way around it. DVC
