I choose not to drink. I feel no need to explain that to anyone. Life is way too short to get hung up on things. I have my reasons including screw everyone for profit police state America revoking my driver license. I hate them so much for that it consumes me. I am married 28 years but if I was looking for a partner and they did not accept 'no thank you' for something , then this is definitely not the person for me and this can help me weed out those people. I don't want anyone judging me and I do not judge. If I make an offer to someone drink, apple pie, etc and they respectfully say no, I don't need to judge them or think anything but they dont want it. I would not want a diabetes dating site. I dont choose someone on what they can eat or not eat or what medication they take and a diabetes site doesnt even cover understanding how I eat. There are diabetics who do NOTHING about it, there are diabetics who live a keto lifestyle me , there are a whole of options in between. If they dont understand me simply saying no thank you... You wake up in your bed and believe whatever the doctors want you to believe. You take the red pill, you stay in Wonderland, and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes. Absolutely loved it - it was a regular camp except all the kids had diabetes and had to do their thing at the appropriate times. I would always find girlfriends to spend my time with when at diabetes camp - we were only 10 so no big deal. But when I was off to Unversity in my early 20s every women with diabetes I had met seemed so unhealthy and mentally stressed out. Don't know if I could handle a diabetes dating site but then this comes from someone who has been with the same women for the last 34 years so it's kind of an irrelevant question for me LOL you met women with diabetes at college? Even from 1996 to present, outside of the internet, never had anyone come out and say they have type 1 to me. This includes school, work, family, friends, associates, friends of friends, neighbors, strangers,........................ It was somewhat of a surprise but I had met more people with diabetes in University than any where else around the early 80's. It all started when I had a hypo at the cafeteria and was rushed to the University Hospital. A lot of people were standing around who witnessed it and the next day when I was at the same cafeteria someone asked me what had happened so I told them. I guess word got out pretty fast because I had people come up to me who I didn't know telling me they had diabetes. Having said that, I wonder how they are doing now... Back to diabetes dating It would be so romantic , we could count carbs together and give each other injections. On another diabetes forum, someone asked if sex lowers blood sugar.
