Dating Sites, honesty or not?
Hi, I have been suffering from some Mental Health issues for the last three years. One of the consequences of this is loneliness. I have been called a good looking/handsome man on numerous occasions but this is all on the outside, you cannot see the mental health issues. As I am isolated I thought I would try online dating. I have tried this years ago and it was very successful, not so much this time. I was honest in my profile about being off work, with high anxiety amongst other things..I got very few messages. The messages I did get were actually from other people on the site who were also ill. Unfortunately, it seems other people with mental health problems don't want to date other people who also have mental health problems.So, do I lie on my profile? I have amended it a few times and omitted any references to my condition and the messages did trickle through. But, I am going to have to meet them and the truth will come out...just the little things: I cannot get on the Tube, do you mind if we don't go to that busy restaurant. Actually I would feel a lot more comfortable back at mine with a Dvd. How do you approach dating?
