February: Love, Relationships & Intimacy

Emma_EnableMe

Dear all,

as we enter February, we want to focus on the people that are close to us, we want to focus on our loved ones. As Valentine's Day is quickly approaching, let's talk about the ways in which we build relationships and also discuss the challenges we face in finding partners and maintaining healthy relationships.

What are challenges in love, relationships and intimacy that you have faced due to disability or the social stigma it is surrounded by? Was it possible to overcome these challenges? If so, what helped you?

Let us exchange ways of coping, tips, tricks, and experiences that we have made.

Best,

Emma

Yes, @BKiwu of course it does - I was just making a post to announce this as the topic of the month. But I have seen that you were already actively discussing the matter, thank you!
