sharing healthy history


Recommended Posts

Is it common for girls to be reluctant to enter a new relationship due to their health history? Fear of being judged by the guy and possibly rejected? A girl and I have been friends for a long time now. She knows I've liked her for a good while. She seemed to cling to a difficult relationship for the longest time. I couldn't figure out why.

 

Recently though, some health related issues came up in discussion (namely my very checkered health past). Since that discussion, she too finally shared with me some of her health related challenges. We both agreed hers were small compared to things I've faced, however...

 

Now that the cards are on the table. I wondered if these health issues were possibly a hurdle in the past for her moving on in life??? I've known her for a while and we always respected each others privacy. I wondered if women that have had a hisory of health problems feel awkward about sharing their heath history???

 

I know I felt that way and was reluctant at first to share it with her fearing she might judge me etc. Wondered if the shoe could also have beeen on the other foot? Next time it comes up in disscusssion with her I'll ask further, but I don't want to push the issue right now.

If it doesn't directly affect you it really shouldn't matter THAT much. But if you each feel like you should tell the other for some reason or other, that's good and will only strengthen the relationship :)
