Are you saying that I give up on relationships?
Should I confine my self to a lifetime of loneliness simply because I have a genetic disorder?

Of course, I might stay single for a few more years but then I would love to find love and settle down someday.
oops. That part got me.

Love will find you at the right time dear, people that doesn't have or suffer any genetic disorder are not finding the love also, it's not an easy thing to come by dear.

Well, i have this friend whose sister is also a sickle cell patient, buh she's happily married to a medical doctor with a kid and she with her family are all doing good in U.K.

Where as there are many who doesn't suffer from sickle cell who are still out there searching. So just relax, don't give up on life, don't see yourself as a patient in love, see yourself as normal human falling in love, if it doesn't work, then it doesn't. Buh don't you dare lie, love is gonna find you, trust nature.

Please don't lie to him.
I once dated a SS and if there is one thing I cherish her for, it is her loyalty and honesty.. Though I broke up because of her feminist tendencies...
She is still someone I cherish a lot.
Never lie,it would create hatred for you at last.

I haven't been fortunate with guys.


Apart from that fact, I'm beautiful, smart, funny, very lovely, outgoing (even as an ambivert). I poses a healthy level of empathy, self esteem and confidence.



Now I find myself liking someone again (the fifth guy). We haven't gotten that close but I'm scared. Should I lie to him? What do I tell him?


I'll start with Part 2...... having self esteem and confidence ...always a good thing.... especially for a person with your illness. The other attributes.... let others be the judge.

Part 1.... the answer to why you are unfortunate with guys lies in Part 3.

Part 3.... you find a guy that you like.... and go after him with all your heart.... not trying to find out if he really loves and cares for you in return. Love is a two way street...not one way. This is your problem...not your sickle cell status. You throw yourself at guys you like....most will chop....sickle cell?...that's ok...two holes in the heart...that's ok.... have one kidney only... that's ok...he will say whatever to get what he wants...then be very busy after. Tell the truth... stop throwing yourself...body and soul... at guys you like without knowing g them well.

Pictures or we don't believe you @the highlighted grin

Coming to your question, some women tend to love too quickly and/or reveal everything about themselves too quickly. Hence, per the 5th guys ... you guys just met and haven't gotten that close, so you don't tell him anything about your health status. At this stage of the friendship, all you can share with him are your hobbies, personality, religion, politics, likes and dislikes, etc. He has no business snooping into your personal life. If I were in your position, the only time I would reveal that information is when I start discussing marriage with a guy. And I am talking about when that discussion gets really serious that he has fixed a date to come and meet your parents.

Other than that, you're not really keeping anything from him that he ought to know. I mean, it isn't like your HIV positive or anything. SS is not a communicable disease; hence, I would only share that piece of info with someone who's planning to have a family with me.

I haven't been fortunate with guys.
My first attempt at a relationship failed woefully.
And so did the second, third and fourth.
It isnt entirely without a reason though.
I'm SS. I have been a Sickle cell advocate for many years. I don't shy away from talking about it on any level.

Apart from that fact, I'm beautiful, smart, funny, very lovely, outgoing (even as an ambivert). I poses a healthy level of empathy, self esteem and confidence.

Physically I'm tall, slim, moderately endowed. I have been told that I look healthier than some "healthy" people.
So I don't know, what am I lacking?
All the guys I've been in love with, for one flimsy reason or the other just disappear for no reason. Just like that.

Of course, I don't hide my genotype status, but then they seem cool with it. Months later, he disappears and leaves me heartbroken.

Now I find myself liking someone again (the fifth guy). We haven't gotten that close but I'm scared. Should I lie to him? What do I tell him?

Chi59, here's my candid opinion

Do not disclose it to him till he finds out. No man is going to start any relationship on "I'm SS" note.

Spend time with him, let him love you for who you are, and just maybe, he may defy all odds and stick with you

This is the reality of the life you have. Be courageous and fight for what you want.

Lol, some do though.
I remember this guy my cousin gave my number to, first question he asked was my genotype. I got the message immediately...
Re: Sickle Cell: Should I Lie To Him? by eniorisha(m): 3:12pm On Mar 08, 2019
Problems differ. Well, u av not done bad so far. Your four exes weren't goin away because of your genotype disorder. After all, many AA & AS girls have as many as 15 exes & failed rlshp to their names. Rather, they ran because it's much hard gettn into your pant. Most people incldn girls see sexless rlshp as boring & emotionally impracticable. My advice is keep telln them your gntyp conditn but dt hymen intact till wedding nyt or at least after engagemt.

What you need the most now is to be happy. Considering your status, being happy is more beneficial than having a boyfriend that might be giving you some emotional problem.

Why not choose to stay single and happy. There are many things you can achieve being single and happy. You have to accept relationship isn't working for you. Come to terms with that hard truth and go for plan B. So what is your plan B? To keep moving from one to another?
I agree, you've tried four different relationships and none worked.
You musn't be desperate for another, why not stay single and happy, then see how things play out from there?

The op should just keep her disorder to herself. Almost every guy is scared of an SS, Unless he has something to hold on to, which he can only find when he falls in love

You need a brain check

It only took u about 3 comments to display your true colour. I doubt the qualities u enumerated in your post.
Work on your attitude, the ss is already a dent, do not pad things up with bad attitude.
Sincerely.
For 1 - 5 guys to leave u even when they know that your genotype is ss from the beginning calls for a reflection from you, are there other things about you or your attitude that drives them away? If this is not addressed, even the guy up there that is should interest may leave you
