Going To Be In Fl Part-time Now I suffer from a rare illness, very much like sickle cell. I've been alone for almost 5 years now and I have two daughters. One daughter is an adult and living on her own while the other daughter is younger and at home with me. Normally there's no problem with me attracting a man, but once they find out I'm sick off they run. Yet I don't get it because my disability isn't contagious and it doesn't hinder me from being independent, enjoying life, traveling, camping, volunteering, teaching, and loving my babies, friends, and family. Matter of fact, it's caused me to have a heart of gold, to cherish those around me, and that giving back to others in my community is very important. I'm a little shy at first, but then once I get to know someone I enjoy life, laugh often, am honest, trust worthy, and would never in a million years play games or cause a heart ache for someone. In return, I look for a man who is willing to learn of my illness and take an active part in me when I'm sick and just as they do when I'm having a healthy time period. A man who is independent, whether he's sick or not doesn't bother me in the least. My kids don't need a father, but I do want a man who is willing to speak and spend time with them if we were to get serious with our relationship. Lastly, I don't like pushing things in a relationship, so I'd rather speak to someone for a while before meeting in public, then becoming friends, and hoping for the rest.
