Hi Chris,
Getting involved in your MsS community is a great way, whether support group or volunteer.
I can understand your thoughts, but I wouldn't limit yourself either. I've met people with MS who don't always get it. They were either milder or more progressive and thought "needed to suck it up".
I met my husband after diagnosis. He did get scared at one point, but then realized no one knows their future. I almost ran away, as I wondered if it was fair to him. He said he could have a stroke, get hit by a car, etc...and I could be his caretaker. No guarantees in life. It hit home. I have had a rough year and he has been my biggest supporter. Even with that, he is incredibly happy in our marriage. We are both lucky.
Take a chance, MS or not when you meet someone who interests you.
Good luck and have fun looking.
