Comment by Gaurav Aquarius on March 22, 2012 at 2:52am With all the problems that we T1's face. Our powerful mind can be the solution to all. Just like Mr. Spock (startrek), be more logical then emotional. Develop self control like a Jedi. Think yourself as the chosen one. Become my friend, etc. (Ha Ha :-)).
I am also living in a new city away from my friends and family alone. I have one or two friends here so far and my dogs. It helps me to know that when you spend time alone you are able to individuate yourself more. It also allows time to work on whatever character flaws you may have before entering into a relationship. I need to work on being more patient as an example. Get out and meet new people. Just get out and do things. Even if someone may not understand what it is to live with diabetes, they may have other hardships that you may not have known in your life as of yet. Take care, Sai.

Comment by tarus_vg on March 17, 2012 at 7:10am Any girl from India ?
thanks for the advice :)
sai, stay single!
OK, heres my scenerio...
im dating a new guy... were on date number 3... I order apple crisp for desert and he has the nerve to tell me that I shouldnt get that because Im diabetic..."oh really" i think to myself... i have to explain myself and how insulin works and now I cant enjoy my desert because I have Hitler on my ass watching me eat desert! urgh....
Then... next day... eating lunch....
I count all my carbs... pickle included... taking my insulin, he reaches over and says... " can i eat your pickle?" and proceeds to munch on my pickle... i bark "no, i accounted for that with my insulin" (im trying really hard right now with my blood sugars) he gets alarmed, puts the pickle down, awkard moment, i say, no go ahead eat it, and he says.... " no you accounted for it with your insulin"
i really dont enjoy eating out with people who make it unenjoyable... who are they to comment on what you eat and how you eat... my docs dont have a problem with what i eat, why should he...
i eat corn pops every morning... my dietician has no problem... i asked him to pick me up some corn pops for my breakfast and he says... thats not healthy, you shouldnt eat that.. your diabetic...
should i even tell people im diabetic? the pump is a dead give away...
help!
Is it difficult being all alone (atleast in your mind?) if you have :D? How hard is it for you when you interact with partners/spouse/mates who don't have :D and don't know/want to know how you are feeling? Is it difficult to live in a new place all alone?
