Dating and terminal cancer ❤︎

Hi all!!

I would love to go on a date or two, I have leiomyosarcoma terminal cancer but I'm stable, 34years old and love life! I'd love to meet a nice guy, go on some dates. Anyone else in the same boat? Missing a cuddle.. cancer sucks

 

  • Hello Janine87

    How fantastic to hear that you're currently doing so well and living and loving life right now! I can hear the positivity that you have radiating through your post. 

    Dating can be a minefield at any point in life but to date after a cancer diagnosis can leave you feeling more vulnerable and scared. Please know that you're not alone in your quest to find that special someone. 

    I wanted to let you know about two threads we have on the forum here and here where others have posted about this same topic. You may want to comment and chat with them. I'd also really encourage you to have a look at the Shine Cancer Support article on dating. They also have a private Facebook group and a podcast that you may find interesting. 

    Go on, take the step and dip your toe in the dating pond if that's what you want Janine. Who knows ... you may kiss some frogs or you may just find your Prince Charming :love:

    Good luck!
