I found this website online and I hope I'm posting in the correct area. I recently met a very interesting woman that I seem have a lot in common with.
I've only known her a short time but I feel a connection, maybe its a good friendship maybe its more, way too early to tell we just met at work last week and had a couple nice conversations.
We were having a good conversation at work just the two of us this evening talking about our kids, being single parents, the nightmare of divorce. In the middle of the conversation she told me she has MS, it didn't change the tone of our conversation, we talked about how she discovered she has MS and then unfortunately our break was over and we had to get back to work.
I am not very familar with MS, I learned quite a bit reading online tonight and I found more than a few posting about different people wondering when to share with others about having MS. Understandably it seemed pretty private and I'm glad she shared with me. Im not worried about her having MS interfering where life takes us as friends or more were just starting to get to know each other and it seems like we have genuine connection for good friends possibly more.
It's not everyday you connect with someone on higher than average daily level. What I'm wondering is am I reading more into it because I feel a connection or from what I read from others postings?
I kind of feel silly asking but I found its always better to ask than not. Thank you for any advice and I apologize that I couldn't explain this in less words.
