When all of your exes get to happily move on in relationships that aren't you and you get nobody for extended periods of time.

While you're prideful in yourself to know that whatever relationship you get won't feel as tainted as theirs because maybe they're manipulative. The thing about it is that, I've tried being upfront, honest, detailed and everything to get someone with.

And I guess working on yourself and trying to improve aren't exactly attractable qualities.

I grew up really active and I've always loved sports and running around. At some point I started having some problems and was passing out in school gym class. Unfortunately my parents were poor, so we didn't do anything about it. Fast forward a handful of years and I'm having seizures and intense migraines. Finally go to the hospital and I'm told "I don't know how you're alive" by my surgeon before I spent two months in the ICU.

I'm grateful for my medications allowing me a somewhat normal living, but I'll never play sports again. I'll never run again. Sometimes just putting on clothes in the morning or walking to another room winds me. Getting told at 26 years old that I'll never be active again broke my heart and now I'm just trying to get by on what little I have while trying to preserve my dignity. It feels unfair but I try not to dwell on it.

Might be able to rebuild strength with swimming. Zero impact, and great cardio. Obviously consult your doctor, but I've seen all types manage to recover much better with water yoga and swimming rather than traditional exercise
